full vs short ram - Honda Prelude Forum

b-RANds LUdE · 08-30-2009, 06:53 PM

so the prices between full and short ram aem intakes are huge

is a full ram really worth that much more?
im ready to buy an aem intake but honestly dont feel like spending 300 on an intake that will get me the same results for a 100 one..

IMO. the AEM V2 is probably the only intake worth getting thats aftermarket
Other than that, I think the OEM intake is the best, or the Type S intake.
Your not going to feel a difference with whatever intake you decide to go with tho,
if you can feel that whole 3whp difference..your one sensitive guy lol
Just my 2 pennies tho, good luck!

Correct term is 'cold Air intake,' not full ram.

And bumping an hour old thread? Serisouly? This forum doesn't move THAT fast

Goes between IM and Head (basically)

Stops heatsoak from head to IM (or minimizes it)

In other words cooler intake manifold=the cooler the air intake charge

The stock with a K&N drop in would be good enough but if you are to get complete system I recommend the AEM V2.
