Should I get AEM CAI $330, or REVI DUCT COMBO $450?>

Should I get Unorthodox 3 Piece Pulley Set (Crank, Alt, WP) Polished ?
Which would look good with AEM CAI! and rotor oil cap, polished greddy catch can, u know? more "engine bling"

Whoa, that's a hard choice between the AEM and REVI...

I'd do the REVi Combo. You'd probably get more gains out of it.

Both intakes are great and both give power...I say yes...the REVI will give more power if anything but thats only with the duct...For $125 more do you think the REVI is worth it? BUt then again I want engine "bling" , either way i Can re-sell if i later choose to either intake and get like 80% of my money back....

ahhh ****....i thought u were talking about brake rotors.....that must have been NIKKSHIZZLE MY NIZZLE....

n e ways....
ur gonna need ....

4gauge wire (different colors) for the power to ur amp....Enough to run from the battery in the engine through the sides (where the doors open and behind your rear seats through your pass through)

Remote wire (small and red plastic coating) enough to run from your inside fuses under the dash through the side of you doors, behind your rear seats to your amp...

RCA cable...about 4 feet (at least)

RCA Hi-Low line Converter with internal filter (a box with two RCA cable ends and two speaker wire ends)

Speaker cable (enough to connect your sub to your box and from your box to your amp

16-14AWG blue quick splice wire tap (two)

Connectors to the ^^quick splice wire taps for/from you RCA Hi-Low Line Converter

In-Line fuse for power cable that goes to the amp...

That is the list......when you get the stuff then let me know....and Ill possible can go and help you install on Saturday(tomorrow)/Sunday I reccomend going to a Ma/Pop shop for the this stuff because you can/will save money....also you are going to need a "battery terminal replacement" for you power cable on your battery (available from best buy) or you can just buy Ring wire tip for the power cable (4 gauge)to connect to your battery, if you have some money to spare I highly suggest going with the battery terminal replacement from "best buy" its ROCKSFORD FOSGATE brand and is smoke clear...runs about $20...
