Default AEM intakes

what is the difference between the cold air system and the short ram? Are there differences in power + torque. I was thinking in buying the Comptech intake, which one is better?

The difference is that the short ram ends about where the stock airbox is/was (where is sucks in hotter air near the engine). The cold air intake goes all the way down your fender and sucks in colder air from in front of your right front tire...

AllMotor97...hey vince, you could have at least answered the guys question ya bum!

Cold air intakes will make all their power below 5000rpm.
Short ram will make more above 5000
Its a trade off.

Btw, the whole hot air thing, it only applies while you are sitting still.
Once you are moving, hot air is gone.

So which is better below or above? I'm thinking above but I could be wrong.

the comptech makes more power down low then both, about the same up top,,,,and is way way way way quieter then the aem or the injen.......Depends on your preferences http://www.diabloautosports.com/adva...ake+integra+97
