Default iron 883 intake?

My next step is to put an aftermarket intake on my 883. Just curious what everyone feels is the best bang for your buck. I have LAF ground shakers exhaust on currently.

Thank you

HD screaming eagle is reasonably priced. From what I have gleaned from reading and talking to others, pretty much any aftermarket intake will flow enough for the sportster's potential. Just make sure to have the correct sized deep socket to remove stock breather bolts, they have shallow heads, easy to strip. Easy to replace, bolt on.

There is actually a thread that is fresh on this same topic if you care to get opinions from that thread.
