Its a nice looking intake and added some top end power but i lost so much tourqe i had no choice but to reinstall the stock air box. I feel like i paid to much to at 250 shipped. I do miss the sound though. plan on getting the iceman. heard it is the best for overall power, especially tourqe.
i dont wanna lose tourqe either

i love my AEM V2 intake. it's smooth! although, it's strange how after i installed my V2 intake in my car. i noticed after driving around with it for the first 2 months. that the tubing itself was starting to get some little black marks on it as if they were HEAT related marks. has anyone else had this problem?. for the most part. it has stopped now. but, i'm curious about this issue. thanks.

OBX SRI
on a 02 auto.

Fit: 1. took alot of work and cutting off an inch at the the manifold, but i finally got it to clear the strut bar and tranny.

Power: 5 very noticable pwoer gains throughout rpm range. i drive customers civics and notice the difference reguarly

Loudness: 5. good lord is it loud. my buddies swear ive got an exhaust on the car when they ride near me. the always tell me they have to do a double take!

i do have an ultra high flow filter. but it costing me 83 dollars with the filter at employee cost i really cant complain about having to cut it to fit better!

eh, come back when the bracket breaks and leaves a nice hole in your intake.

anyway, weapon-r secret, depending on the car, you may have to extend the intake temp sensor wires so it reaches the side of the pipe. you will also most likely need to wrap a few rounds of electrical tape around the sensor so it fits tight in the hole. now the bracket you need to bend so it connects with the stock mounting point. i also bought another bracket and connected it off the cruise box as a second support. other than that everythings fine. ive had mine well over a year without problems. just make sure you oil the filter alot front and back before installing, they DO NOT come preoiled and you need the special foam filter cleaning kit to do it. its a pain to install right, but after that you will be happy with all the cool noises it makes and the best throttle response of any intake ive tried.

well whens that supposed to happen exactly?, cause it hasn't yet and it's been like 6 months already. you know what i think it is?. those people that had that happen to them were probably from colder places. basically, when you get into your car for the first time after it's been sitting for a while and the intake and everything under your hood is cold as ice!. the first thing they do is mash the gash and put the pedal to the floor!. well with that braket being cold. a sudden jolt of the engine would do that crack. i don't do anything like that untill it has warmed up underneath my hood. basically, i think it's all about temperature. i just have this thought in the back of my head. a gutt feeling. i could be wrong.

nah its just bad design. the intake must be able to move a little with the engine. the engine moves anytime you press the gas, doesnt have to be hard accel. K&N solved this problem by putting a big rubber washer inbetween the mounting points so the intake can flex. has nothing to do with temperature. metal doesnt suddenly become weaker in the cold.
