Default Cold air intake for a V2

Anyone have any suggestions on a cold air intake for a V2. We just got a '12 and id like to start doing a few things to it. Preferably ines that wint viid the warranty. I know there are a few out there like Lingenfelter and D3. Is there much difference in them? Any other suggestions?

FWIW, I believe the New Era requires a tune. Haven't heard of an Airaid ever needing a tune.

Would definitely steer clear of D3's . Their's needs a D3 accompanying and expensive tune !

I can get you a New Era for a little less $ if you would like.

I'm running a new era with the stock tune. Haven't noticed a difference except the supercharger is louder. None of them gain much until tuned.

Something to consider when deciding between the two, the NE sets the filter very low. So if you see any high water.....

FWIW, I believe there is a guy on the CF who reports a best of 11.88 bone stock and then an 11.68 with the addition of the Airaid and no tune!

Also believe he picked up 2.xx MPH
