I've only tried the JoeZ (with and without drop in) and the fujita... The JoeZ is bearly louder than stock, but that's the way I like it. The Fujita sounds nice until you get to around 4500rpm at which I think it is TOO loud and ricey. But that's just my opinion.
I have the injen in my car, its pretty nice, cant notice anything until 4500, even then its not that loud, my friends tell me it sound pretty nice, have a little rumble to it, i dont think it get that loud because the hood and everything make it quiet, so i ono that my opinion..

Click here if you want to hear the K&N. Make sure you're listening on a real set of speakers, not some tinny laptop speakers. The noise you hear when they floor it is the intake. The low-end sound is from the Tanabe exhaust. And yes, that is me at the bottom of the video...

I have heard the Joe-Z (Which is on my car). The Fujita which I bought and ended up selling to another member. And my buddy (Iceman on the forums) has the K&N
Joe-Z. Is not much louder then stock. Its only about a TAD louder after 4,000 RPMs.
Fujita, after 4,000 RPM its EXTREMELY LOUD, but not a nice loud, its like a ricey loud. The best way if you want to hear how the Fujita sounds, pull out your air filter and turn on your car, listen to how loud that is and how it sounds, thats exactly how the fujita sounds.
K&N, is a nice deep growl, bassy, not a high pitch loud like the fujita. I think its just perfect, as soon as i find some spare change im getting the K&N. Please note tho, the K&N that I heard had the stock K&N filter replaced with an AEM Dryflow. According to the owner the stock K&N filter is too oily and in the long run could be a bad thing.
Have not heard the Injen so I cant rate/review it.

From what I can hear on that clip, it sounds almost identical. Well, this is a recording with a compressed sound file, details get lost. I'm sure if you'd hear both in person, you could tell the difference. Probably the 350 has more volume in the sound but the basic tone is the same.
