I'm not positive, but I think one is made for your application. Just check with the vendor of your choice as I'm sure they would love to sell you one.
Keep in mind that they will improve performance, but don't expect seat of your pants type of improvement. An upgraded exhaust will be more noticeable and garner more HP gains.
Good luck

My icebox has been in about two weeks, and the improvement is subtle. The Header Exhaust route will be the biggest boost without resorting to a SC. The comptech ice box is a great product.

I think for starters, the plan is to go with the "Icebox".
Headers, HKS, and a solid wheel/tire combo will be planned for the Spring. Appreciate the input

i said get comptech because its quieter. the aem noise can be annoying at times. the sound at over 40mph is hot thou when you pass cars and freak them out.
also the filter to clean or remove from a aem is harder then the comptech.
also the aem requires a bypass value so it wont suck water. just annoying to install.
sorry but what you guys think of those cons?

Let's see...if this were a poll, 3 for Icebox; 5 for AEM. AEM is less expensive but is a pain to install; Icebox is more expensive, but a little less hassle. Either way, it sounds like personal preference. Thks again Ladies & Gents

To be honest, I'd tell you to just remove the stock resonator and replace the factory filter with a K&N filter. Total for this is about $45 and some time removing the resonator.
