Aem v2 intake

Has anyone purchased a v2 intake for an em1 or any 6th gen civic? Why do I ask you say, well I've heard alot of good things about this intake system and I want to know what you guys think about it. I've already checked it out on YouTube and i like but I haven't seen it in person. My question is, is worth kicking out 350 bucks for it. Lmk

Re: Aem v2 intake

I have one on my 7th gen, but I wouldnt spend 350 on it new... I spent 250 on mine I think.. you can get a used one in great shape for 200... do that. The filter is good for life. AEM dryflow.

I would save your money and get a AEM short air intake new instead. If you look at the dyno numbers the short air produces almost the same amount of hp.

Actually with that supercharger you can keep the stock internals, but I would not go that route with higher mileage engines, unless you plan a rebuild.
