How would you feel about buying the intake used? There's a post for one, Gen 3 Long pipes, probably get it for 300-350. Is that a good move to save that money? or is this something you want to buy new

Used = Fine
Intake = No... Bad... Stay

I'm confused. Why would a used intake be a problem? Just clean and re-oil the filters and you're good to go.

Look in the classifieds here, I got a used stillen exhaust 700 shipped, and a takada intake for 350 shipped. No shame in saving a couple bucks.

Oh a used one is just as effective as a new one...

...being that they don't produce a noticeable difference for the $300 + install hassle.

But that's just me.

Oh, the "CAI's don't produce power" **** again. I guess all the dyno sheets floating around here are just wrong.

Correct, short rams are worse than stock. But CAIs show gains. The intake discussion pretty much boils down to either Stillen or MAF tubes and drop ins.

Since your budget is $1K buying second hand is your best option to get as many parts and your $ can stretch. There are a lot of high quality parts in the classified here, just use common sense when you're buying stuff online. And if you're in need of quick information on any parts, hit up DEpointfiveo with your questions, he is the forum catalog since he's owned just about 90% of parts ever produced for our car, and he NEVER sleeps LOL

He probably has all the parts you want in his warehouse. See if he'll do a package deal to move out some old inventory.
