Ultrik/K&N CAI...
New to this site but I've searched around and haven't seen anything so far on the pros and cons of this particular product. (see link below).

I've got the Ultrik CAI and have had no problems with it at all. I removed the plastic barrier behind the intake and cut a 6" by 4" hole in the plastic piece and then reinstalled it. I know there is the potential for brake fluid to enter should a line burst but I am playing the probability game and betting on that not happening. I did, however, buy the silicone Alta intake hose which does improve flow and adds a bit of bling to the engine bay as a bonus. I have not had any other CAIs other than stock so I do not have anything to compare it to...all I know is that I am happy with the setup. It is a piece of cake to install so I wouldn't pay the dealer service fees if I were you.
It seems like there are a lot of folks on NAM that swear by ALTA products so I am sure they make a quality CAI (and other mods). Others prefer Madness, but I really do not hear a whole lot of rumbling w.r.t. MiniMania products. Probably because they are expensive compared to the rest of the tuner world. Shop around before you buy...
Cheers

for the $ there are better alternatives. Someone has already referenced ALTA, another would be mymini (does not offer tube option like alta)
