Which Upper Front Strut Bars Will Fit With A CAI?

I've got an AEM CAI and am considering getting an Upper Front Strut Bar. I would like to know what my options are. I have heard DC Sports & Neuspeed many times, but are there any other options????

Yeah, that's about it. Those are the ones tested at least. Two other ones may clear it, but it's not bean tested.

#1: APR Performance Flex Control Bar

#2: Weapon-R Aluminum Strut Tower Bar

I think these two are good candidates because they're slightly offset from center, so they may allow AEM's CAI to clear them. Not 100% sure though. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

The offset to the front bolt really isn't satisfactory. Might as well spring for the Neuspeed and have a guarnteed fit.

neuspeed looks pretty skinny, whereas the one DC makes, the joints and welds look much better...

Nobody seems to know Ractive makes a strut bar that will fit with an AEM CAI, and it is cheaper in price than both the Neuspeed and DC Sports.

Just thought you might want to know.
