i juss bought a used aem v2 for $100
and i have a brand new aem short ram intake

what do u guys suggest on i use on my gsr

i did a search couldnt really find anything

 

i guess it's ok, if you got it used for a hundred bucks.
i'd never buy a new one. $250 is insane for an intake when you can make one just as good yourself for 10 bucks. i never bought into that dual tube crap. plus you gotta move your ac lines or something. eff that.

i gota question, why are you worrying about which intake to use when you have a boosted car?

those wont even fit

 

taking my turbo off next weekend
tryint to get out of debt

 

its really up to you.. with the v2, you cant use the bypass valve, if you wanted to..

and since your aem is only a sri.. it wont matter anyways.

but i think, im pretty sure that v2's are cold air

 

depends where you live...i live in jersey..climate sucks its always pouring unexpectedly...thats why i went for short ram...my boy got a v2.....car does pull a slight noticeable difference...but nothing i would risk hydrolocking over

 

I suggest the stock intake system with a after market filter like spoon or greddy. The stock rubber arms disperse more heat then the AEM metal tubes. Plus you get a better throttle response off the stock system.

that's what my friend has done K&N works pretty good

 

V2 is cold air and you can not use a water bypass valve cause it makes the intake useless over a regular one... and according to the physics classes i have taken the intake should actually flow more air...

 

use the v2 it's a very good intake. My brother has one on his gsr and he loves it.

 

i has 2 peices to make it cold air or short ram for the v2
i will prolly just use it as a ram air

 

I have a V2 on my 97 gsr and I like it. No problems yet. Just avoid big puddles of water and you should be just fine. Especially if your car is lowered.

 

Just got mine last month brand new for $165.

Does anyone else's V2 hum when the car is idling? Mine does .

Also, if I press the gas down a certain amount, it whistles. Anyone else?

All in all, I like it a lot.

 

ive got the V2 in my 98 GSR and i like the fact that its visually intimidating.

downside: its a B*TCH to put in. (especially cuz i ve got the stock & DC strut bar)

upside: it makes my car sound mean, if im gunning it and yer outside listening, especially when VTEC kicks in @ 4500

AEM V2 vs SRI
V2 = cai = better for freeway racing/ top end
SRI = better throttle body response for short races/low end

 

i decided to go with the short ram since the V2 doenst fit my gsr
it hits the tranny for some reason

so its up for sale

 

how much u tryin to get for it? n do you got pics?

 

I have taken my car to the dyno and did 3 dyno pulls with a regular AEM cold air intake and then I did another 3 pulls with the V2 intake and I had a 3whp gain total a the peak curve started at a lower rpm. SO I can say that the V2 is a great intake.

sounds good.. V2 is what i am gonna get for my next mod

 

You can technically build your own V2. Just order 2 of the extensions for it and put them together, and pop on any filter you want. Cheaper, and you have yoru choice of filter

 

thats very true...a lot cheaper too... for spending over 30 bucks on pipes and a foam filter [which got you at most 5 whp]
