I think this thread has pretty much established that AP is superior to BMS. Can anyone speak to AFE, Injen, or MST when compared to AP?

I had the Injen for 2 days and removed it. Didn't fit well. I went back to the BMS as it's the best fitted and pretty much does the same as every other intake.

I think they are equivalent more than anything, the BMS is cheaper and easier to install/remove.

I have the AP intake and I love it. Had some difficulties with install but after a little break in period and knowing how much to step on the gas pedal when you want to hear the spool, and being in a higher gear spooling up helps a lot to hear it. Don't forget when you floor it and let off, the sound is great and worth it all!

So they are 2 on the market, no 3, eventury but man, out of price for carbon pieces.

Anyone here have installed one of those and could give some review? what about the sound? to much? not loud enough? There is a difference in pricing though.. Agency power is 275$ + shipping. BMS Intake is 179$ + shipping.

Waiting for your news!

I have the BMS and I'm switching because I would rather have the full set up (piping & cone) versus only cone.

Now that Agency Power no longer makes the intake, any recommendations for just as good sounding? I heard good things about MST, any other suggestions?

EDIT: Was browsing on x-ph; anyone have experience with AFE POWER MAGNUM FORCE STAGE-2? I'm a fan of the closed design but don't see many people running it at all.

AFE is a very popular brand, they make good quality intakes.

I prefer the Injen EVO over the AFE Power Magnum.
