Cobb or Corksport SRI?

Hello world, I'm kinda new to the tuning/modding business. I notice a lot of love for the cobb and corksport sri's here, I was wondering if it'd be a terrible thing to go for the cheaper and seemingly easier to install Cobb SRI. I notice the corksport comes with a turbo inlet pipe, which seems worth of some consideration. Thanks!
 
I bought the COBB sri when it was really the only quality SRI available. I knew I could do the install myself, didn't want to bother or pay the money for a CAI. I also bought the COBB inlet afterwards (because it had to match my SRI lol) so 175 for the SRI and like 160 for the inlet, 335 for both. Corksport offers basically the same thing for about a hundred bucks cheaper? I love COBB, but I would say go for the corksport unit. Yes, its a more involved install, but lets be honest, you're gonna want to change out the inlet eventually anyway, so might as well get it over with and enjoy.
 
I've had my Cobb for about 8k miles and I enjoy it very much. I don't know how it compares to the CS. I personally don't plan on modding my car much more any way, so I am content with the Cobb.

Agreed here. I was going with Cobb at first but the Corksport is a proven product and 100$ cheaper. The install doesn't bother me, it's pretty straight forward from what I've seen (waiting on mine to ship, btw). In the end, get what you like, but the products dyno very close to each other.

I'd probably stick with Corksport or Cobb and not mess with anything else.
