nope not a power chamber. they actually just got done with the prototype. the actual intake wont be ready for another 3-4 weeks. this will be the best route for 06+ si

AEM has fixed the issues with the CEL. They actually did so quite some time ago. I don't know who you're 'hearing' these things from. In fact, their newest version intake would be what I would purchase if I were in the market for an intake currently.
