CAI's for 3G TL's

Im interested in purchasing a CAI for my 2006 TL and I am wondering whats the differece between AEM, Injen, Fujita, and any other company there is that makes one for our Acura's. With that said which one is the best one and will provide hte most power overall? Thanks in advance for your opinions. O yeah if some has a blue one in their car installed i would like to see a pic of ho wit looks. Thanks once again.

Go AEM. sounds better in my opinion, and the sound and boost is most evident in the 3500-5000 rpm range. IMHO.

from what I've heard the Injen is a little more subtle.

Do you mean more subtle in sound or in power?

injen = slightly less noise & pull.

If you want max performance and dont care about noise, aem is your choice.

If you want minimal whistling and not such a loud growl, injen is your choice.

Thanks everyone for your input. Im going with the AEM. Are there any other minor mods i can do that will help increase my horsepower and torque? Im thinking about getting the Comptech exhuast because its exactly the noise im looking for. Not those loud ricer noises. very subtle and nice sounding.

I have heard of the TB coolant bypass. Try it out and let me know if you feel any more power.

Underdrive pulley is great "bang-for-the-buck."
