Does the Injen come in aluminum like the AEM? Does it make more midrange than the AEM? Does it have better clearance? Does it sound the same as the AEM?

I refer to the CAI's.

Thanks,
Jon

 

I believe the Injen is chrome maybe?

Both CAIs are the exact same design. I wouldn't expect any appreciable differences between to two of them in performance.

 

I don't remember when it was posted, but I do remember a debate between both of these intakes, and the AEM did come out on top, over the Injen.... AEM

 

Injen = polished Aluminum. One advantage that I have found for the Injen is that a 2 piece version is still available, so that you can run it as a short ram in the winter/rainy season.

 

The Injen has nicer welds, better bends, and the dyno curves are almost the same...Injen will have about 1 more peak hp

 

Thanks for the replies....

sheesh Austin, I can't believe this **** happened to me, all because of some other moron. Hows your R running?

Well, did the Injen make less on the bottom or mid then the AEM did?

Thanks,
Jon

 

My Injen:

 

Car's running pretty good...should be getting the HyTech back on the car tomorrow.

Injen/AEM, buy whichever you like...no real difference, Injen has ~1whp peak over the AEM...no difference other than that.

Thanks for the pic...

Austin.. why did you take the header off.... if I am mainly planning to drag/streetfun right now.. do you think the hytech would be a waste of money, i mean, because drag seems to just be about the peak power (6k+ RPMs).. hense slipping/dropping the clutch pretty high.

Jon...I sold the Comptech exhaust that I had to help pay for the HyTech exhaust...just getting the exhaust rather soon. Personally I don't think that it's a waste, but that's me. Next time that you're up here I'll have to give you a ride so that you understand.
