My combination of intake/exhaust.. give me opinions

Ok i have a magnaflow exhaust in my car now
and i want to get an intake...
my car is auto
should i get a SRI ? or CAI
i read and people say with CAI "engine bay too tight pipe bends too much.. air lags.. etc." so get a SRI (that's why aem doesn't make CAI for auto)
but also read CAI out performs SRI cuz well it's Cold air

I'm planning to get aem SRI with my magnaflow cat-back .. just cuz it's cheaper.. and probably no difference with CAI on auto

please clarify this and opinions are welcome
thx

what ever you want man. I think I going to take out the extension on my CAI and make it a short ram. I want the high-end horses not the low- end torque.

Hey guys let me ask you something. Won't getting an altezza grill let in more air in the front to make an injen SRI act like a CAI? Just wanted to ask cuz the extra opening resulting from the altezza upper grill provides more air into the engine bay? LATe.

from what i've read, it sounds like injen is the deal. that's what i'll be getting. it's a "true" cold air intake.
