        cold air imo
        War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

                Actually it's not that bad. lol
                Having a filter over throttle body, doesnt do much different than a short ram.
                But instead of getting warm air from the engine compartment, the cold air is much more efficient.

                  Short ram is better for off-idle torque, cold air is better for high-RPM horsepower. Where do you want to make your power? When you decide that, design your modification path to maximize power in that RPM range.

                    i think id rather have it in the low rpm range, so id accelarate better...

                      Short ram actually has more top end supposedly and CAI improves mid range. Tubing and velocities tell the story. But yea lol.

                          cold air

                          cold air is all ways better
                          first pros colder air elimanates factory air box lbs.
                          un likely for filter to melt and get stuff wit debre.
                          cons: in most cases not good for bad weather conditions
                          a lil harder to install
                          some types requier cuting

                          out with the old and in with the new

                              There are some CAIs you can use as short rams, just take the lower half off in the winter.
