If you didn't dyno how can you say it's way better than his short ram which he hasn't even posted a dyno for either?

I have an ITR motor with the Password JDM CF intake and have owned and driven plenty of other cars with the same intake, as well as a short ram. And I've seen/done dynos of most of them, so I can tell you that your statement that your "intake is better than his short ram" is WAY off.

intakes arent the greatest power gainers for their money but its a great way to start off.

since you already have a sri, just keep it and buy something else.

an intake is an intake. you're better off just buying a intake pipe from ebay and slap on a k&n filter on there. you'll pretty much get almost the same results but for cheaper. so, just stick with the aem since you already have it.

That dyno is vs. a stock intake. Even so 6.5hp is not way better.

Besides, the issue at hand was Password intake vs. Short ram, not a stock intake.

I also had an authentic J's intake and i didn't feel much of a difference on my butt-dyno compared to a generic SRI. the throttle response was a bit better with it, but it's not worth the price IMO.

I'm now using an AEM Hybrid CAI (made for EG's with B-series). 3" piping like the ITR version and my butt-dyno definately felt a big difference with it. I wish i dyno'd the J's, but there have been other threads in the all-motor forum that show it doesn't make a lot of power compared to AEM units....
