excellent question... actually I am looking to upgrade my stock intake to a CAI and have been looking at all 3 you mentioned...

according to a thread on here the HDI has the most horses....but I don't like the looks of the alum box, I do like the filter though... I am currently leaning towards getting the alta CAI w/ hose or the MM CAI...

How did you like the alta?

This is a thread definately worth your read; starts off as HAI and quickly turns to CAI; lots of info (though I don't think any related to Maddness. Also if your looking to switch just for a top it is quite easy to make your own in an afternoon or you cna buy ine from ALTA.

Also may I ask just why you're looking to switch, noise, perfomance, power, reliability?

Do the looks matter when you're driving?

Nope, and that's why I have a HAI. Well, not really...it's just because it's cheap lol.
