Suggestions for CAI

I'm looking to buy either a Moroso, K&N, or SLP CAI before my car goes into hibernation for the winter. I'm looking for some feedback and opinions on which to go with.

Id go with a K&n or the Moroso. SLP cost to much, and they are all basicly the same. ALot of people recommend the lingenfelter CAI (may of spelled wrong). I believe it costs roughly $160~ and works great also.

You can make one from PVC pipe and a nice filter. Id say 50 bucks all day after a filter and piping.

I have a K&N CAI. I like it. And even though they say it doesn't, it fits on vehicles with traction control with a little coaxing.

I just put a SLP on mine. I know they are pricey but I really like it. All metal and fits in there perfectly. PITA to get on kinda but over all a very nice unit. Marylandspeed.com had them for 251.00.
