i have decided that the aem cai is teh best for the price. 177 shipped . my question is, will i lose horsepower compared to teh stock one or will i at least stay the same and possibly gain. i have read about 30000 reviews and i have seen from gaining hp to losing hp. let me know please

thanks

 

May gain some, but not a lot... Most people just like them because they make the car *sound* faster.

 

You gain some here and there and maybe loose a little low end. Other than that, $177 is a good price

 

http://www.hondadriven.net = $169.00 shipped! talk to charles

 

thanks opie

What do you run ****? (intake, I mean)

 

hey,
buy my AEM CAI for your ITR.
it only has 600 miles on it and is in perfect condition
no need to to spend extra.
email me an offer.

do you have any pics or information?

 

Extending the intake pipe will lose throttle response.

 

lose response but will it make more upper rpms

 

Screw the 180 buck CAI, you need to spend 500+ on a mugen intake!

so you get +1 whp in the powerband at 8200 but lose 3-4 whp in the 4000-6000 rpm region.

tizzle.

how much are you wasting on this mod again?

 

Couple Horsepower depends on your mods and what not.

 

Agreed.

 

axle back str8 pipe and header

 

FWIW, I have a pretty worked motor, and the stock intake chokes the top end power. Right now I just have a partially cut AEM(about a foot long) with the filter and thats it. not that great for drag racing(you can actually feel it sucking in the hot air from the motor after sitting at the line for a second or two), but at speed its great and throttle response is nice, and top end it pulls a lot harder than the stock intake. just my 2 cents.

 

well either way it does sounds awesome, all I did was take the knock off from my gsr and fit it to my ITR

 

do you guys think i shoudl buy an aem intake or a comptech short ram. my budget nows 180

 

get a comptech ice box for like $150-160 shipped from http://www.speeddistributors.com and then either use a comptech foam filter....which i don't feel comfortable with or the k&n filter for hte teg. nice gains through out the power band....and sounds good too.

 

i think i might jsut do that

 

Better yet, make a DIY "Icebox" cold air extension to your stock airbox with a filter of your choice.

 

i want noise also now, so the icebox isnt a choice, but what i might do is buy the short ram then eventually buy the icebox. let me know

if you want short ram.. heres an idea: remove your factory box and run intake arm and filter..

as for the noise.. if that what you're into.. then run no lid on either comptech or factory box.

 

i just got a good deal on a used aem so i think ill buy it 111ish
