Default AAM cai vs. stillen\takeda cai

I've been trying to do some research but I don't really see anything. I have a takeda cai but was looking at the AAM due to the straight 2.75" piping all the way through. Would the AAM produce more power due to the more air flow or could it actually lose some? I would love to hear some thoughts on this!!

I would also like to hear the difference. Also a comparison with the Z1. Chase which ever one you do buy we should do a before and after to compare it to your current intake setup. It's not like it would cost much to strap it down on blames dyno

IMO, AAM has the best design with the removable sleeves. Z1 has a good filter design. Overall, I think AAM has the edge. Price per performance, Z1 is pretty damn good.

Might need to check the ID of the Z1 filters. They have a metal sleeve you can pull out, but with it in, it's 2.5". Pulling that sleeve out might be 2.75", but I'm not sure. I haven't measured it.
