The next 5 to 10 replies will yeild aem... Lol

Personally I got the fujita because I got a good deal on it, truthfully speaking the fujita ends up way to close to the driver side fog light causing some headaches

Ps. An intake is an intake, there aren't any major differences between aem, fujita or injen, well except price

All your human opinions are going to be basically based on what that person has.

I don't have one but to be honest, they're all basically the same!

Well I don't have a 3rd gen TL but I have installed all the brands on all the TL's. Injen and K&N don't make as much power as FUJITA and AEM according to their dynos. And AEM is by far the most popular in terms of sales.

You can PM or email me for any of them. excelerate@sbcglobal.net

AEM seems to be the best selling on the site. I personally like the K&N's, and have for years.
I just visited the websites for Fujita, AEM, and Injen... and I have yet to see published dyno numbers to compare. Maybe someone can help me find them?
K&N does for the 3.2L '05. AEM seems to be the only one that publishes they have a CAI available for the "07, but it's the same P/N as previous versions

Here I just made sound clip on you tube of what Injen sounds like. Aem is louder but Injen is quiet when your not flooring it, definitely appropriate on 07 TL S I have the same car, it sounds throaty not Like rice noise, I think you'll like it.

The AEM is quiet when you're not flooring it, too...

But it sure is fun to turn heads when you step on it!

They're all the same. Does anyone really believe there's more than a .5hp difference between different brands? Drop in a new OEM filter or even a K&N, remove all of the intake plumbing so that only the pipe that goes to the airbox remains intact and you've got your CAI for free (or $40 for the K&N) that will make every bit as much power as the $200 units.

This is a 250-280hp V6. It does not need these huge air filters. I run the same size filter on a 602hp car.

Good thing my ass isn't numb, though.
