new mod parts!

i own my dream car 05 white TL and i m planning to mod it up since i m gettin extra income..i dont know much abt the mechanics of the car..i just like to race..i want to start with a aftermarket intake but cant decide which one would be the best one. i m tryin to decide between AEM, INJEN, FUJITA and K&N TYPHOON...i dont care abt the price difference in them cuz its very little. i need some help deciding becuz i dont know how much each CAI gains and all the spec stuff. i was on youtube and saw that some of the intakes are installed with their face hanging down to the bumper and i dont know if that wuld be good cuz i dont want any water to get to it. i also saw a instructional video on how to install the intake ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wdg4lxpjlRM ) and i m 100% sure i have da capability of following through the video to install it my self. i dont know much abt the mechanics but i wuld still prefer working on my baby myself if some one showed me. i wanted to first be sure if that video is even correct to follow through.. so plzz helpp me ppl!! thank you

All the bolt-in CAI's will get you the same gains. The only difference is slightly different tone between each, and finish.

AEM has the largest pipe size and is the most popular intake on AZ. It also has a fitting to relocate the IAT sensor. Gains will be similar but AEM posted higher dyno results for their intake.

I can't see the video but the one in the 3G garage by sandiego something is for the Injen intake. The vibramount location for the AEM is in a different location but it'll be obvious when you're installing it.

Do you still have the AEM intake + P2R TB Spacer/Gasket combo?
If you do maybe you should fill the other person in on that =p
