Cold Air Intake which one should I get?

Apollo8642 · 06-19-2013, 06:39 PM

I going to get a CAI, but have no idea which one to get, they all kinda look the same, like AEM, Nismo, Stillen, Injen, K&N Typhoon, then you have the short ones like JWT Dual pop charger, or Takeda short ram, what's the best bang for the profermance?

Getting everyone's advice would be great, also if anyone has had any issues, or even better dyno sheet would be really sweet.

Thanks,

Stillen Gen 3s!

z1 Post MAF Tube + K&n Drop in filter. Best Bang for your bucks or the HPS tubes either or. People say z1 seems more stronger due to it being harder to bend and such.

Any except for short ram. I have aem but it is Little more involved and some people say they have issues.
Stillen and takeda are routed in front of radiator the others down low into fenders.

Aem makes the nismo without the electric trickery. Aam seems like good idea to.

I used AEMS and they worked great, comparable to everything else. People have had issue with the ETI module, but you can easily bypass it, but will require a tune due to larger tubes.

Shameless plug of the day: I'm selling gunmetal AEM's if you're interested. I used for 5 months b4 I garaged the car, then decided to go FI. PM me if you're interested, I also have a sale thread.

Outside of this AAM has a really solid new product.
