Default EP3: AEM V2 Intake

you guys hear much about the AEM V2 Intake? it provides a better HP increase than any other intakes.

i wonder if its worth it to buy it... it's like around $200.

Yes it's definally worth to buy... but then again a CAI would be better.

Search for V2 and CAI comparasions.

The V2 suffers from heatsoak reducing power and the CAI has more potential hp but is threatened by hydrolock.

i use to have the aem v2 intake for my ep3, and i didnt like it much, honestly i didnt feel that much difference and the intake is loud, its not obnoxious. but its not worth how much its going for.

find a used cold air intake and that will be good, if you suffer from tons of rain, then go for a cheap intake off ebay, and buy a nice k and n filter or a foam filter.

If you use a cheap ebay intake. Thats fine for you. But only use the pipe don't use the filter. GET A K&N FILTER!!!
