An intake is an intake. It's not rocket science. You will not see any additional gains between the brands. Go for whatever you have budgetted and what you like the look of. I have had and Injen, AEM, Ractive and a generic brand. They are all the same and the fit is pretty much the same.

I like the K&N because it gives you the option to run it as either a CAI or a SRI, Injen and AEM don't.

you are kind of wrong, cause i read about the intakes and the injen said that is for the entusiast who is looking for mid range power and when i read the aem it said that it gives you high range power and it outruns any of the competitors.

I cant speak for the 3, but as far as the Protege is concerned the Injen is the way to go (Sound, & Power)

They are all pretty much the same but have small diferences, however aparently through indipendant testing the Injen, is said to put down more power.
