Re: North East Meet DECEMBER 19TH
How much better is the AEM CAI compared to the $40 ones on Ebay? I am looking to get a CAI for myself for christmas but I want to get the best I can get and if AEM is alot better I will drop the money for it....just looking for opinions

Re: North East Meet DECEMBER 19TH
The ones on ebay are not really cold air intakes. They are warm air intakes. The AEM system places the filter behind the grill/foglight on the drives side. So basically the filter is completly out of the engine bay. The other intakes leave the filter in the bay. They are better than stock but not worth it in the long run. I have had both the Injen intake and the AEM CAI. The AEM CAI even with the bypass valve creates much more HP than the Injen setup.
