CAI - ZZP vs. Injen

I was looking to buy a CAI on Friday, and have narrowed down my choices to the Injen SP series and the ZZP 3".....any suggestions?

I can get both for $200 brand new so it's pretty much which is better, I've heard good things about both....torn between the two lol.

It's not, it's a 2.75" I believe but there are some 3" parts to the tubing throughout....

Looks like ZZP it is?? lol would a 3" fit on a BONE STOCK cobalt?

Go with the zzp, from what I hear the blower wine is a little louder with it over the injen, and yes the injen is only 2.75. Both are good intakes though and will serve the purpose

If you get an Injen, I am sure we can price match, just send us the link. Support forum vendors

I had a K&N before, it was much smaller than ZZP. I can't speak for Injen, but I can for ZZP... I love it:

ZZP sadly, busy has one, appears to be a solid 3in from beginning to end. All others have some restriction point.

Installed the ZZP 3 inch in April and love it. The whine is so nice. Installing was kind of a pain though because it just does barely fit in there, I mean barely. Well worth it the price.

Yeah you have to kinda corkscrew it into the engine bay from inside the fender well. I managed to get mine in without scratching it.
