To all the knowledgable Acurazine Members.

I have a purchase pending and I need an quick answer to a fairly basic question.

Will an AEM CAI from a 03 6MT fit my 01 Auto?

I tried contacting AEM and have received no response yet.

I have received information to support both yes and no and looking for clarification from the forum.

Thanks in advance.

 

No, it is too long. But I guess you might be able to get it cut so it fits.

 

Dremel it a little shorter.

 

Is that the only issue....the length?

Has anybody done this before?

I tried a search but not sure if that functionality has resumed on Acurazine since I yielded no results.

 

it is 6 inches too long, just had this prob my friend

 

Cool.

So it wasn't too bad right?

Is there any adverse action from cutting the intake?

 

^ The tube I meant

 

I wouldn't think so. It's just a pipe.

 

Would there be any performace loss from cutting the pipe?

 

No, just cut the pipe. My AEM wouldn't fit even though it was the correct part. But the filter was rubbing against the road lamps. You might want to check that out too. Might have to trim an inch or two on the other end.

 

Okay, cool.

Thanks everybody so far for the good advice.

I will try to look into the issue with the roadlamps.

 

F*N roadlamps!

Would it be better for the intake's performance to just yank them out and put '03 inserts?

 

The '03 inserts would have to be cut so the back will be open.

 

Ok, do you think it would actually improve the performance of the intake?

Or not worth it?

 

Nothing measurable. Just get it & measure the pipe & cut it.

 

I am confident I have all the info. now.

Thanks again everybody for the assistance.

 

Make sure you cut it at the end that meets the throttle body...

 

Thanks for that info.

I have never done something like that and that is just the kind of info. I need.
