Would an SRI be better if you spend alot of time doing auto cross due to the better throttle response, versus going with an actual cold air intake or are the differences in throttle response between SRI and CAI's not enough to really matter?

 

I doubt it'll really matter much. I would go with whichever you prefer, taking into account whatever class you intend on running in.



I will say, if I had it to do over again I would run my Accent in the stock class with Accent GT springs and Koni yellow inserts.
