Cold Air Intakes

What intake would you all recommend? AEM CAI V1? AEM V2? or the Injen CAI? I have a Tanabe SRM exhaust and soon Kamikaze header.

Heres why I'm asking: I already own an AEM w/ By-pass. But when I installed the by-pass I placed it too high on the intake and it hits the hood. Through time the by-pass was torn to shreads. I was going to replace it with the V2 till I learned its a SRI. Now I've done research here and throughout other sites and everyone is telling me Injen!!! So here the question: Is this a good price??? http://www.iapdirect.com/item.asp?invid=244

short ram doesnt always mean bad things.... the V2 on the RSX-s is short ram, and it's amazing on that car!

Thats all good, and no direspect, but we're talking about a 02 EX 5-sp, not an RSX-S. So is the Injen the best for my car or not? And on the pervious page, is that a good price?

The reason I went with the AEM V2 oiver the injen is becasue I thought the injen would pickup water and salt, it always rains hear. The injen just looked like it took air from to low of a spot for me, and this is my daily driver.

Yes, that's a good price. You might also want to check Ebay.

AEM CAI sucks up hot radiator air, the extra piping is completely useless. Any SRI will perform better because they get the same temperature air with less restriction.

The INJEN RD kicks *** because it gets COLD air from the front bumper.

I'm not sure which AEM your looking at, but the V2 has tunnel ram built into the tubing, it where the pipe gets smaller and smaller to help compress the air, that I haven't seen on anyother CIA systems
