The reason why people have it is b/c they c gains not b/c it is trendy

And u just have to bend a little and no one will even know if u put your stock air box on anyways

so injen doesn't pull good #'s

Get Injen's Cold Air, it is SUPOSE to have more gain that the AEM.

This really doesn;t prove much but check it out:

what do you think is better?

C-Redrum · 02-20-2002, 03:16 PM

from what ive heard the Injen intake is crap. A Po.com user (i believe it was Ed-camden) had it and was actually losing power on a dyno, so he put his AEM back on. AEM is the best, hands down.

Thats so strange i always hear good stuff about the injen, i hate aem pretty much but if its the best way to go than ok

Why u hate AEM?

i've had always bad luck with their products, on my cavalier,focus,altima.

I have heard nothing but good things about injen products. They are great quality. I have the short ram intake and I do notice gains in vtec. I cannot even notice the loss at the lowe end either. Im not biased, ive owned a few short rams before and the injen is one of the best. short ram wise.

ShadowSonic · 02-20-2002, 03:42 PM

DO not get the short ram

Mine as well keep the stock air box on. Get the CAI and u will loose some low end torque but gain a lot in the high rpm's

Just wait till Vtec kicks in man

I've got the INJEN. I was little disappointed for the pipe size. The pipe looks like 2.5" in diameter, where the AEM looks to be around 3", giving it a louder sound. I've never put the car on the dyno so i dunno wut kinda numbers i gained with it or whatever. Overall, i'm very happy with it, and was a snap to install.

illusion · 02-20-2002, 09:40 PM

get the iceman then. i didnt have to cut anything for it to fit.

cementups · 02-20-2002, 09:54 PM

both the Injen and the AEM are very similar product and are both very reputable. if you want a comparison of the two then ask "ed-camden." he has had both on his car and can tell you if there is any difference. but i would advise that you go with a CAi on a 5th gen.

if you want the AEM i sell for $195 shipped ($201 paypal)
--------Injen for $209 shipped ($215 paypal)

i got the injen cause i thought it was bigger... i still think that the injen is a bigger piping diameter than the aem...

ShadowSonic · 02-21-2002, 05:01 AM
