The Injen also converts from short ram to cold air. However, it sucks because it's too large in diameter. The Iceman sucks because it's tapered. The dynos don't lie. The AEM is the best.

It took me half an hour to put my AEM CAI on. All you have to do is unscrew the bottom part of your splashguard, put on the intake, and screw it back in. I didn't have to remove anything at all. It takes me 15 minutes to remove and install the filter when I want to clean it, too. Anybody that tells you they have to remove the wheel, front bumper, etc, is just trying to get you to pay more money for the install.

I took my bypass valve out. Biggest waste of $45 I ever spent. I bought it before I really understood what it takes to hydrolock an engine. It only does you any good if you live in a flood zone, and are dumb enough to completely submerge your filter. That's the only time you would really need to worry about hydrolock.
