The rpm II is one of the best on the market. While others may claim there are equals or close enough, the most powerful NA normal street setup built on a stock shortblcok i've seen wears an rpm II.
I had one a few years back that i got like new (and it was literally like new) for $400 shipped.

So if this is really the best intake for your setup, keep an eye on craigs and ebay and get the real thing.

Just use the 03 cobra carbon rebuild kit for your stock unit.
