i know this has been posted before, im lazy cause i just woke up... which one... im ordering this week... which is the better intake... have an 05 ss/sc... they are both same price..
kn - 219.99 modern performance
injen - 219.99 turbo tech....

which should i got with....

 

injen period.

 

Injen!!!

 

Injen Injen Injen!!!

 

Aside from the CEL my K&N is fine. I fixed that with a maf offset device so I don't get the CEL anymore. The CEL is almost like your car telling you the intake is actually allowing more air into the engine.

 

it's a difficult decision... any fitament issues with iether.....

 

this is the question iv been asking my self as well...

 

K&N is a bitch to get installed but once you figure out how to shoe horn it into the car it fits fine.

 

so woudl you say the injen would be the same....

 

Injen gives me a CEL every day or every other day. I hate it, and the fitment

ahaha love blower whine tho

 

go with injen

 

do yo have an 05 or 06... i've heard many fitament problems with the 06...

 

I've got an '05 and I had a bugger of a time getting the Injen to fit, had to rig it, and it still pushes both the bumper and the wheel shroud out. Did they even test fit these on Cobalts, or did they fit one on a Redline and assume it would fit all LSJ's?

 

got an 05 and it throws CEL.

 

can inform us a little on this "device"

 

anymore people with fitment issues with the injen... i'm starting to lean k&n... just because of fitament....

 

You should go with the airbox mod. Its stealth for dealer visits + your going to throw a code with any intake......

Almost everyone has fitment issues with the Injen

 

I did the air box mod and got a CEL with it.

Later

 

im not worried about my dealer... he is offering to do cheap labor on every install that i can't perform myself... he wants to see over 300hp just like me... so the dealer don't bother me....

 

I love my injen the fitment isn't too bad. Pushes the bumper out the slightest bit.

 

I didnt have any fitment issues with the k&n but it does throw a code every once in a while.

 

I have the K&N filter I have the light but it was easy as heck to install took less than an hour. Also keep in mind that the variance on the amount of air extra its allwoing intot he motor is enough to throw the code but not enough to actually harm the motor in any way, shape or form. My cousin is a tech at the GM dealer i take my SS for service to and he sees this all the time and also says the issue will be resolved soon so for fitment and ease of use i prefer the K&N as i have have tried the injen and gave up with b/c of fitment issues.
