Shit I forget. My mother got it for me for Christmas back when I was still making $9/hr as a RadioShack store manager. I think it was was like $219 shipped.

Oh, and as far as the low-end power, That's Torque at low RPM's, which, unlike most people, I did not lose. Then again I drive an automatic and probably wouldn't notice any loss via the good old butt-dyno.

CAI
AEM wanabe (bought off this site)
Fit: 3
Power: 9 (well maybe not that much but after we drank like a case of beer to put it on it was awsome)

AEM sri

Power: 2
Loudness: 4

It sounds like the guys with CAI are much more satisfied with their buy. I had AEM CAI on my RSX and you could feel it but I don't wanna deal with installing a CAI again, too much work to move all the stuff around. I wanna get a v2 but can't find a good price.

K&N Typhoon SRI
Fit: 5- it took me 10 minutes to assemble it and tighten everything. perfect fit.
Power: 4. its not boosted but i can feel a bigger pull at 4k. but i can feel a difference from stock at 3k.
Loudness: 4. its louder than stock. you can hear it kick in at 3k normal throttle and there is a pitch difference anytime at WOT. beautiful sound.
Misc: im impressed. my gas mileage is still around 40mpg. its the perfect intake for my car since i don't prefer CAI cause of the hydrolocking issue.

[Spracto]

hydrolocking is one hell of a problem. you have a simple mod on your car, just a CAI, then one day you have one hell of a rainstorm and decide to risk it driving through a puddle and BAM! you need a whole new engine. just not worth it.

anyways

AEM CAI on the acura RSX automatic (yes i had first had experience with this )

fit 1 - pipe took forever to fit, had to bend battery mount and **** with a bunch of stuff to get it in, took forever.

power - 3.5 - i had an auto so gains were crap but i could feel it. allowed my car to breath better too, didn't jerk me forward when i downshifted

sound - 4 - sounded cool, not as loud as SRI i've heard but once I hit 3k you knew i had an intake. Gave my car this brrrrrh, *shift* buuurrrrhh, sound.

[BtheCarp]

I am looking to get a CAI for my '03 ex with a M/T. My friend was telling me about a new brand called F5 Fujita and how it was created by the former head engineer at Injen. Has anyone used their CAI? If so what were your thoughts on it.

Thanks

[redex04]

yea same here...even though the FIPK seemed promising

AEM CAI v1

Fits: 3 never really got the 2nd mount with the bushing to line up!

Sound: 5 Great base came from the engine bay; and I loved to hear it shut off!

Power: 3.5 At 4500 RPM's you can hear me a commin!

K&N Typhoon 69 Series SRI
installed on my 2001 ex

Fit: 5 Absolutely perfect. Doesn't rub or touch anything. I also have neuspeed strut bar.

Power: 4. I noticed the gain the minute I got on the highway. Accelerates much faster and smoother than stock.

Loudness: 4. At low rpms sounds similar to stock. At 3500+ rpm there is an audible growl that is a nice loud sound.

I am extremely happy with the K&N. I got the powder coated silver one. I had planned to get the polished, but it was out of stock so I went with silver. It looks better in person than it does on the web. Looks good, sounds good, and I can feel the difference. I will be watching my MPG this week and see if it gets better or worse. Hopefully stays the same or gets better. =)

edit: first time getting gas since the intake was put in. I put 274 miles on the car and put in exactly 9 gallons = 30.5mpg. I was getting about 32mpg before. I'll check it again next time I fill up.
