**XP02ED** · 07-03-2007 08:14 PM

Hey guys looking and researching for a new CAI,

WHat are you currently using? and how much does it add?

from what ive researched they believe

AEMv2 gains 20hp
Injen gains 15hp

anyone shed some light on what CAI i should be looking for

heres 1 review i seen on AEMv2 : http://aempower.com/images/products/..._Type-S_hp.pdf

Injen ~ AEM ~ Fujita.
They're all much of a muchness. We use & sell the Injen.
IMO the Injen CAI is by far the best fit, followed closley by Fujita.
Both of these come with a new washer bottle.
The AEM is prone to fouling on the shiftlinkages if poorly installed.
As far as output goes. There not much in it.
Each manufacturer claims theirs to be the best.
It's more about marketing hype than clever gains.
So I'd say buy the one you want.
It makes very little difference in the end as they all work quite well.
