    id be interested for sure, depending on the product (if its actually cold air, hooked up to the radiator, or just a straight intake tube with a cone filter) and price

    The best intake I've seen was made by MorganTech - the HotShot wasn't bad once it was cut and rotated (it was actually designed to fit a Trooper which has more hood clearance so the continuous tube had to be cut and rotated about 20 degrees to fit under the hood) - however the HotShot has a bit of a weird bend coming right out of the TB to clear the radiator fan shroud that the MorganTech intake addressed by having additional pie-shaped welded sections.

    Changing the intake itself doesn't do much as you still have the restrictive exhaust setup, however if used in conjunction with a better (less restrictive) exhaust like the PowerVault, there's a noticeable increase in throttle response..
