There is already a thread on this......and the intake isn't out yet as far as I know (that is what the sales rep at AEM told me when I called last week, I'm pretty sure that he knows).

They probably didn't understand what you were asking them because the V2 has been out for some time now.

Even your website says that it is due out in June.... What the hell? I thought you said that it was out already? For one, I didn't realize that it was on the website and for two, I am not a man But thanks for the info!

Man, is a general term now-a-days. NOT specified towards gender in this case.

And I posted the part # for the EX. Not the DX/LX which i never said was in stock.

Good I didn't either. I'm just letting them know; besides I think it might be cheaper with you cause you give 7thgen a 5% discount right?

Maybe we should have been more specific when referring to the term "already out"

I didn't buy the V2 but I just ordered the V1 from tornactive tonight.. I should notice some
positive gains maybe even in the low end since my air filter is dirty as hell.... was going to change it 3 months ago when I had my oil changed but they didn't have the right one and
pep boys didn't have it either so I decided to wait and just get a cai... was debating which to get the cai or the fipk .. Its hard to figure out which is really best when you hear so many opinions... so I just went with the cheaper of the two. Can't wait hope they have it in stock.

You're gonna lose low-end with the regular AEM CAI. Gains will be minimal in the high end.

V2 is just a marketing ploy. :P

but doesnt the physics of the air travel make sense in what they are trying to do, or is it that even with the extra air our engines cant take it in, but if that is the case then we need to upgrade the intake mainfold and other parts to allow for more air, but maybe i am completlely off the wall

From AEM:
The AEM V2 Cold Air utilizes a dual chamber (using two different diameters and lengths of piping), to create multiple frequency sound waves that help charge the cylinders with air throughout the entire rpm range.

I can see their ethic, and it does make sense. May be a good investment if you dont have an AEM already.

Also, if any member has a pic we can use, I woud greatly appreciate it, I may have something to hook up

Rob

TornActive, I remember that name. I tried ordering something from that site about half a year ago, and they sent a confirmation of the order to my email and didnt even tell me, when I tried re-ordering it and by that time they didnt even hold the part anymore!!!

Well in some cases. I guess if you didn't say bluntly "We will send you a confirmation email" then you really didn't tell him. It sounds like you assumed that he was a "Smart" buyer and he would realize that.

But like myself for instance, i rarely ever check email unless a confirmation email is being sent.

So, if it didn't come up on the screen that a confirmation email was being sent, you didn't tell him anything.

Not to be mean to tornactive, i've never bought anything from them, although they look to be a reputable company.

Also, I don't know the whole story so sorry if I jumped to any conclusions that I wouldn't have come to if I had heard the whole story.
