There's not much difference between the AEM and Xephyr's CAI except in price, CARB exemption, and the fact that AEM incorporates a velocity stack built into their filter; however, that does not justify the significant price difference that AEM charges for IMO.
Performance wise, both are the same. As for Weapon R, are you sure they have a CAI? Or is it just an underhood intake?

Lets not forget that the Xephyr Performance CAI comes with the AEM bypass valve already pre-installed (No Cutting Required)and can be changed to a short-ram setup in minutes
