AEM 15 hp/tq CAI...??!

I read a thread earlier about a new CAI AEM makes (think it's the V2..?) that supposedly gives you 15 whp and 15 wtq... If so what is the model name??? Does it come with a dyno also? It's hard to believe you get 15hp/tq from just a CAI... I like how Injen has their dynos posted on every car on their site showing the before/after results. So far I'm going to go with Injen unless this AEM is legit.

It still needs to be CARB certified so it's 50 states legal. It is legal in most states. Only places like Cal with strict emission laws, it still needs to get CARB certification.

Plus you must be mistaken if you think a CAI would give you 15WHP/WTQ. It makes like 10HP/TQ at the crank at the most.

You will definitly feel the gain out of the V2 (that is the right model) especially on the cold days. The cheapest and most reasonable performance mod you could do for your TL. GO with the V2 instead of the regular or the short ram it is worth the investment.

You would be lucky to get 5 whp from an intake alone.

Thats absolutely NOT true, Although it MAY be the 2nd or 3rd best "go fast" mod HEADERS ARE the #1 bang-for-buck "go-fast" mod.
