what is the best intake for our cars. Injen,AEM or CT. Which gives the most hp to the wheel

 

when Import Tuners did a test on an RSX the AEM had the most HP with 18hp and 10 lbs of torque. The Injen came in second with aoubt 10 hp and 5-8 lbs of torque. I personally don't think it makes a difference on the TL-S. You feel it slightly but not enough. I went with Injen because that's what Comptech uses.

 

Wow, I've never heard this question before...


You might want to try a search - there's been plenty of discussion on this.

Bottom line - all are relatively the same. How much do you want to spend and what kind of look do you want? HP gain is close for each; close enough that you wouldn't notice the difference driving the car.

 

Injen and AEM will produce simlar power and sounds. From the dynos I've seen over the years you can expect 6-9 HP at the wheel... averaging around 8whp.

Icebox dynos have been scarce, but the few I've seen show about 10-12whp... so slightly higher then the Injen/AEM.

Personally I went Injen because the sound of a CAI especially at VTEC is just intoxicating. The Icebox does not have this sound b/c of it's design... so I decided against it. I know it produces more power, but the fact that the Injen (and AEM too) is cheaper and produces that sweet music sold me on it....

 

AEM ............ NUFF SAID!

 

or u could wait til the AEM V2 comes out

 

When does the v2 come out? Its out on the integra and some hondas, but have you heard anything about v2 on tl-s
