on the auto it has it on both tubes right? and on a stick it is only on one tube? is that how it is? anyway a different mounting point costs roughly 50 bucks more?? that sux but the knowledge was good to know.

err..i think they cost the same for both auto and stick shift. for retail Injen at least, they cost the same, unless you are buying it from somewhere else, then i am not sure

its pretty much different mounting points. if you tried to put an Injen CAI for a manual into an auto, it will not fit because the auto tranny gets in the way. both Injen CAI's are 2 piece.

Yukonart will become famous soon enough
Which intake are you looking at, anyway? I suppose that's the only difference for all the brands, though. Even though the intakes are all a bit different, the mounting points in all the autos are going to be constant. . .and the ones in the manuals will be constant. Just all depends on how that particular brand makes it work, I guess.

In the auto there's only one mounting point (on the second tube that the filter attaches to). I just got my Injen CAI for my auto.

Edit: The one mounting point on the second tube is for the Injen CAI. I'm not sure about the other brands.

I'm pretty sure it'll fit (I think). There are members on this site who have bought CAI's from eBay.
