they're all the same to me. one will give you 1hp more than another, not really a big deal. I'd go with whatever you think looks prettier

nah stick with the same intake you have... there is no reason to go out and by another since it will most likely perform the same...

just keep yours, they are all pretty close. If you want some bling under there, get one of those Injen SRIs, all polished and what not. Got a header yet? spend some cash there instead

cool, then I know performance wise theres really no difference, intakes give barely any horsepower anyways, im just talking about overall, whats the better of the two. I love my aem, but I hear injen is good too, then I heard some iffy stuff about k&n, anyhow thanks anyways

I took my AEM out, I went back to stock and noticed better mpg... or maybe since I get no intake sound I don't get on it as much...

Injen goes further into the bumper right? AEM is more like "warm air" behind the radiator
