MY OPINION:
Cold air & flow are what you want. The stock does suck air from the wheel-well, which is cooler, but is restrictive.
The best intake (opinion) is the K&N FIPK. Next is BTG, then AirAid, then the rest.
The K&N replaces more of the intake tract, has a bit of a heat shield, but is also expensive.
I feel that once you are moving, the temperature difference between underhood and wheelwell air is MUCH smaller than when you're stopped, and then flow becomes important.
Keep your eyes on the Classifieds area - many folks trading in a PT take off their mods - I got a great deal on an FIPK from a Forum member.
