I highly doubt the performance part of the statement...but the main difference between the 2 is that the AEM is made of cotton, while the Weapon-R uses foam. It's a matter of preference at that point.



BTW...my vote goes to cotton.

Did you look at the fine print?

"Do not compare these results to the Cold Air Intake Results"

Also...dyno's on a 1999 Honda Civic Si doesn't help either. Keep in mind, I'm not trying to be a pain-in-the-ass, I'm just trying ot be as neutral as possible. A TL P/S cannot compare to their dyno because the engine design will be completely different.
