A question on how the AEM Cold Air Intake sounds... enjoy. Actually, I just bought a new digital camera and have had some fun with it

It's nearly 5 megabytes, so it might take dialup users a while to load....

waste of money. hope you don't get a cel

Waste of money? It's a CAI..

 

[Algorhythm]

That's an auto I guess, since it shifted at 50-ish mph.

 

[coleslaw]

it's a 5 speed, and if you freeze frame the video, more like... 53-54

 

[MattZX3]

its a stick.. didnt you see the shift light, and the end where his left foot was over the clutch?

Is it that you just don't like that paticular brand?

 

[metallicnotazx5]

first off all aem stuff is crap

second noone understands the concept of our maf, it needs the venturi effect. thus why walter, focussport use the stock maf tubing. and why cosworths costs so much, becuase they built the venturi effect into their intake

 

[coleslaw]

that uses the stock maf tubing... all it is is a tube to the maf housing, then the stock maf housing, then a couple tubes to the filter....

 

[Algorhythm]

How the hell did you shift at 53-ish from 1-2. I have to shift at 37 tops.

 

[coleslaw]

it was 2nd to 3rd

 

[Algorhythm]

oh I thought it was 1-2.

 

[Algorhythm]

Why'd you start in 2nd? No real gain I don't think.. we don't drive cars with horribly short 1st gears..

ummm... try F2 CAI that doesn't use the stock MAF tubing and no CEL from it.... sorry you are wrong.

the aem intake does run lean btw, something verified by Randy over at focussport.

still haven't seen a before and after dyno of the f2 intake, also they don't have any in stock and may not make more of them.

 

[coleslaw]

In future I just won't make posts, lol. I don't know why they spark arguments.

 

[Ripped_06_ST]

WOW these people do seem to be bashing you a lot.... they kinda need to shut up cause they are really annoying.

I'm well aware it runs lean, I just don't have the cash laying around to get it tuned, plus it's going to be sitting in a garage from July until mid December, so it's not really on my priority list.... I don't see the point in a tune until I get the rest of my bolt-ons put on, which won't be until Spring 07 now.

ummm... the dyno of an F2 CAI should actually be better than MM because they do not use the small stock MAF housing... they use a full 3" piping all the way from the filter to the TB... so it should be just as good as a Cosworth and better than MM and a few others.

 

[coleslaw]

I wish I could find my dyno sheet and I would show you just how lean it really is, if memory serves it was running at 7 to 1 (A/F ratio)... should be more like... 12+
