You'll yield most results with a search of the topic.

I'm a fan of AEM myself.

I like the one made by Injen. The filter is well protected and the filter does not require oil.

X2 on AEM I've had great luck with them on other vehicles. I like my mopar cai. I belive it is made by AEM. I got it for $200-$300. At the dealer with mopar bucks.

Yes, and that may be the only difference there is.

I've got an AEM Brute Force myself. It sounds cool and, particularly paired with a Viper Throttle Body, I think it's given me a little more pull. Did I mention it sounds cool?
