help: cant decide which intake

hello
i just got a 03 civic ex m/t
i've been going through the site for a while but cant seem to make up my mind with intake to go for. help would be greatly appreciated!!
i was first thinking of injen cold air intake with MR technology
but now fujita cold air intake F5 sounds good and also been hearing about Weapon R's
so what do you think guys? which one is to go for?
plus i live in florida. with hurricane seasons and heavy rains, short ram intake seems to be the wise decision. but still, cold air..i mean..COLD AIR!
im hoping bypass valve will fit no problem..hoping real bad bypass valve works too if i decide on getting them w/ cold air intake.

also thnking of getting black halo projector headlights from ebay and installing it with the intake while the bumper is off... another hoping ebay headlights are useful.

I have the aem v2 short ram on my car. It looks awesome and I think the prices have dropped from when I bought it. That's my pick.
