Carbanio Intake Boxes vs. ROW Air Boxes

Which would you guys rather go with? What are the key differences between the two? At the moment, I'm running the standard filters without charcoal, and with the K&N High Flow Filters.

Key difference is the price.

i agree noodleman, that's why i made the thread, incase someone were to prove me otherwise, because i don't see the true reason, plus i was reading on another thread about the carbanio that it has a very rough interior, when something pushing the flow of air should be very smooth, such as the ROW's

rsquad, i agree lol, that's always the case, but i think i've broken that a while back :p

thank you champion, will standby and await what they present, you're not talking about their actual intake correct? because i am grabbing their intake, just looking at he my options on the airbox in this thread specifically

You should ask Dodger about the Carbonio boxes, because I believe he had a set and they didn't have any performance benefits.
