What is the best intake you can buy for an NB8a mx5, in terms of induction noise/kw

i've looked around a bit and been getting mixed answers

for those who have it, is the mania CAI good/easy to install?

also i've been hearing about the apexi dual funnel power intake



What intake system is fitted to your mx5

mania intake requires you to be ballsy and cut a hole in the firewall.

pros: racecar like intake whirling. butt-dyno says hell yeah.

cons: cutting a hole, filter gets dirty very very quickly because the air is sucked from the "gutter" where the leaves and dust fall under the windscreen. i clean mine every 3 months and shake out debris every month.

None make more than 2-3hp on a stock car.

Keep that in mind.

Quoted for truth.

Save your pennies & put it towards a good alignment. The placebo of sound will make you feel like you're accelerating faster.

I laughed maniacally the whole drive after installing a mania style cowl intake.
