AEM vs Injen CAI's
Hey,
Yeah it's been asked many times. and answers always seem to differ. Question though is. The Injen CAI claims to have the highest HP gains (according to their dyno chart almost 7 hp). Where as the AEM has a 3hp gain, but lowers where torque peaks out in RPMS.. giving torque at lower RPMS. Question is. Which of the 2's Dyno charts are more believable. and Which one actually gives the most noticable boost?.

Really? 7hp versus 3hp? I'm looking at Injen's site and I see:
Stock: 112.5
AEM CAI: 115.5
Injen RD: 116.4
That means +3hp for the AEM CAI and +3.9hp for the Injen RD. Little difference, just a matter of filter location. I prefer AEM's CAI because I have my tripple air horn under my right headlight and with the Injen that would be impossible.

Ahh By the looks of it.. even Horses aside Injen offers a much improved torque curve... Injen it is.. cheaper too [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]..
