Srt makes good power and always gets good review on sound output. Won't sound like a turbo though

I recommend the SRT with race ecu. Thats what I have and it's amazing. But you wont get a lot of power. i'd say 5hp AT THE MOST. more power? It's turbo time

Get the Injen. Sounds good and not that many people have it. Also get an SAFC.

You will get much more than 5hp, it has been shown repeatedly that you will pick up around 10-15hp at the wheels which is approximately 12-18 crankshaft hp. If you only gain 5hp you most likely have something wrong with your car as it isn't able to use the extra air provided, weak sparkplugs/ignition, poor fuel etc...could cause issues.
