Sorry about the rant.

I just want my CAI I ordered it about a week ago from the import store and I don't know if my order has been processed yet. I am just frustrated cause this place is local and i have gotten things from cross country w/in a week.

That is all rant over

 

how about some headers to go along w/ the cai

 

headers, rims, drop, 3.5L upgrade...shit i want it all it's a matter of can i afford it and make my payments and still have some $ to have a life.

all in do time...

 

yep, $$ can do everything
u got a auto or manual

 

rollin' w/ the auto unfortunately. Wish i had a 6 speed though. It's all good though cause i tend to drive through rush hour traffic during the week for school/work. BUt still 6 speed:wackit:

 

I love my auto....


During rush hours....

 

oh yes. New York City traffic would really kill me if i had a manual


whew.

 

Do you know where the import store is located? Also, how much did u pay for your cai?

 

Import store is in southern california, i paid about 170 + shipping i believe. you could probably get it cheaper in the balck market here but i was stupid an impatient and wanted it right away (or so i thought).

 

oh your in chino, i think it's in irvine but not 100% sure

 

Dude.. you posted almost the exact same topic yesterday. Why not just contact them?

BTW, just so you know... AEM can be a pain sometimes with intake orders. They don't drop ship.. so if a store is out of stock it can take up to 2 weeks for you to get it b/c AEM has to ship to the store first, then out to you. We go through this many times, however, we typically let the person know right away how long it may take. Our website even lists the shipping time just in case.

 

i did and am waiting for a reply. I am just anxious

 

fucker, should of went with www.c-c-c.net

That site has real nice prices, and good communication. I was real satisfied.

 

i should have gone with c-c-c.net, to late now. just gotta sit and wait it out

 

how much hp does AEM CAI gain? Isn't it icebox better?

 

no icebox is better gains, intake is better sound...ill take the sound anyday.

 

Did you guys know that the AEM V2 is now available for our cars - jsut a few weeks ago.

I got quoted $320.

2 1/4" vs 3" and double the hp increase due to additional chambers, so the AEM tech said.

 

Actually the Icebox is 3-4hp/1-2lb-ft. more and it doesn't have the same hydrolock worries. I'd rather have performance and peace of mind than sound.

Sound gets you in trouble. All the ricers around here get harrased by the cops. If your car is nice, quiet, and you don't do really really stupid stuff - you can run around just fine, they won't even bother you for 5% tint, but they will go out of their way to give a ricer with a fartcan a ticket for 20%.

 

intake is only when u get on it, doesnt even come close to sounding liek a ricer. AEM V2 will give double the horspower and its out, fuck!

 

Yea, well I get on it alot. Who says the V2 is double? All i've seen is 1-2 more than the standard, plus the same hydrolock worries.

 

there are no hydrolock worries, unless u run over a foot deep puddle.

 

You've never been to Chattanooga have you? or TN for that matter...

 

the v2 aint gonna do dick more than a reg cai, its just to make more money for aem
