well you can search..would be the easiest, i dont think alot of people are gonna answer this, but i got an ebay intake and was not impressed AT ALL...the pic on ebay showed a big *** 3" pipe and a 4x8" k&n filter, BIG well what i got in the mail was an 1.5" pipe and a friggin 2x3" autozone cheapie filter, what do you expect for 50 bucks tho eh..built my intake for about 80 bucks and im EXTREMELY happy with it its big and beefy just search under my name and im sure ull find my posts of the ebay intake and my new intake

The velocity is just a mopar/AEM intake clone and the only known problem w/ this is the bracket that mounts the end w/ filter can break. Plenty of people have had it break and rigged up a way to hold it. You can also find it on ebay sometimes under the name bomz or bombz, I think. If you get that intake I would replace the filter w/ a good one like the AEM dryflow. I have the spectre intake which is 160 and is also a mopar clone except the mounting bracket has been moved to fix the breaking problem.

Heres my ebay special. Works great, sounds great and yes it does get cool air when moving just like any other intake. Ive watched the temps on my IAT with my SC3815. Price was about $50
