CAI decisions...

So I am having some trouble picking out a cold air intake and hopefully someone will be of some service. it is between steeda and bbk. Also, does it matter what size of tb I decide to throw on a Accufab plenum??

I have the BBK, looks and sounds sweet (added a pic). With the accufab plenum I would go with a 75mm TB.

Heres a pic of my bay with the BBK

A 70mm will be fine and I have a no preference between the 2 CAI you are deciding between. I went witha 75mm just because I was thinking ahead for boost and it was the same price.

Go with a fendermount for sure!...I have a MAC, but BBK is basically the same (my MAC was 50 bucks cheaper)

I would go 75mm TB

70mm is fine, but for price difference go with the 75mm (future mods)
as for a cold air intake---->BBK

^^^What it all comes down to is looks, becasue all a CAI is good for really is the bling factor. You're not gonna gain any HP. Nothing noticeable anyway.

I gained noticeable HP with mine
IMO its a must for any GT
Stock set up is way more restrictive than any CAI, not to mention my fendermount MAC sounds great...And yes, they look great too!
