AEM CAI review
 
Well. I bought a CAI off a friend for 50$. Its AEM so i figured why not. after 5 mintues of install time, i let it rip. I was actualyl surprised. It was actually noticeable on the B. Top end seemed more fun, and the intake was worth the money. now to sovle the hydrolocking by creatively extending...

extending?

The lower you make it the more likely it is to suck up water...

But yeah short ram to CAI is a big difference... I've taken a couple people for rides in my car with the short ram on then with the CAI and EVERYONE has noticed the difference...

well, relocate with like IC piping so its not as dangerous.

there is a suprising difference between shortram and cold air. last winter i took out my aem cold air and put the cone filter on the end of the stock piece that goes from the tb to the airbox. i couldnt wait to get the cold air back in...

i have a CAI installed and cut for the bpv, and last winter i had it converted to a short ram. the car had a lot more balls with the short ram.

Not a bad idea. I use to mess with my friend who had the Arospeed "interfooler" (front mount intake system). The dude turned around and bought a T28. We then put it the turbo together on his DX. Now it kicks major arse!
