Well all, I got the intake in. I'm waiting for Joel to send me the pictures of the install and what it looks like and all. So I will have some pictures soon for you.

However, just to tell you a little about it...
I ended up having to take off the right front wheel and the plastic wheel well assembly in order to put the intake in. So it's not a 5 minute install. More like a 30 min - hour installation.

The Intake is 3" inch diameter and sounds nice. Compared to the RS CAI, it has a bit of a throatier sound. But around 5800 - 6000 RPM, it gets really loud (Good loud). Feels a bit better than the RS CAI. High RPM power may also come from my CAT-Back system paired with the AEM CAI.

As for pricing, I have no idea. And when TSR will have it, I also do not know. Hopefully within the next hour I will have pictures.

Hey wuzzup all...I got an AEM intake about 2 weeks ago and wasted no time in getting my car out to the tracks. Got a 2001 Tibby and I had a .4 second drop in my car time. I mis launched my car and still hit 16.2's easily. Imma sure after more practice off the line I would be hitting 16 flat or maybe even high 15's soon. I got these times with only AEM cold air intake. Only takes about 2 hours to install alone.

Impossible dude. I live in California - where AEM is located and they ship from... Myself and Rob from HP.com are the first to get production models. They were still powdercoating the intakes last week. How the hell could you have had an intake for two weeks?

The shops haven't got the intake yet. AEM has just sent out shipments to distributors yesterday.
