FIPK2 vs AEM V2

Performancewise, which is the better product. I have heard that the FIPK is the best intake for our cars numerous times but I haven't heard much about the V2. Anyone have experience with both intakes? In your opinions, which is the better product for my money?


How extensive is the FIPK install? I heard you have to relocate your battery to install it, is this correct?

AEMv2 is just like the original-garbage. FIPK at least doesn't rob the low end and gives a little high end. Install is pretty basic. Just unbolt the stock resonator and airbox, and put this one on.

My cousin has a DX and he got the AEM CAI and it worked fine for him, great sound. I don't believe in paying $200+ for an intake because you will hardly get **** from it.

I have an LX and didn't have to relocate the battery for the K&N. I've never heard of such a thing.

There's a shitload more, but I'm sure you get the hint. Trying searching again.. This search took less than 15 secs.
