I'm looking for dyno charts so I can compare the 2,I have both,the Ice box feels alot better threw most the rev range,however the AEM does feel better up high.
Thanks in advance

I've had both also. Ice box requires more cleaning, but there's more low end. The AEM does better up high and requires less cleaning. I like AEM better. Less cleaning.

Check out the integra dyno center. Roger Foo used a stock eg airbox (b-series.net), also a K&N cone filter from an Iceman kit (don't know the part# off hand) can be modded to fit in the stock GSR or ITR airbox.

For the GSR the icebox was better on my dyno. The AEM made two small dips in the power curve. With the icebox the dips dissapeared.

Yea with the ice box I don't really have any dips or flat spots in the rev band.The AEM felt kinda weak down low and mid,but good up high.By the way do you have you dyno charts?I've seen the 1 from comptech but i prefer another dyno,its there dyno if you know what I mean.

Is the red the AEM and green the icebox?And if anyone can find a dyno on a GSR that would be great,I'm wondering how the dual stage intake reacts to the Ice box.
But thanks for your dyno,if the comptech is green it looks like it peaked better no?

Try asking BSQ for the dyno chart. I remember him posting a dyno chart that compares the comptech icebox with the AEM CAI.

With the comptech icebox I think you loose a little at the high-rpm range while you get more power at middle rpm range. The AEM CAI has more power in the high rpm range. But I'm not sure on these though.

can't compare peak power. Notice how the green line goes farther in the powerband
