After a few cuts and bruises and coolant in my eyes, I got the damn thing in.

Thanks to the great video by Sandiegodrive, I was able to do this. had my iPad on the engine block playing the video, and installing the intake.

The mod makes the car sound super mean and legit, very aggressive growl.

However, power gains and torque is yet to be determined. I felt it actually lost some torque.

 

You probably lost a little on the lower end and gained some on the higher end. Hope you eyes are okay.

 

I don't remember Sandiegodrive squirting coolant in his eyes.

 

Did Sandiegodrive get any cuts and bruises?

 

My install was not as finesse as his was

 

Glad you got it done though. Have you hit WOT yet? Boy that sounds sweet

 

Dude can you point me out where'd you get your intake at? I'm looking for a good one for my 08 TL but i just don't know what to get. A good website perhaps?

 

I love my V2 also...but seems a little quieter now. As soon as I drove it my first thought was, damn I NEED an exhaust....but love it nonetheless....

 

you're just getting used to the sound

 

Oh yes! I like to especially drive in shady and crime ridden neighborhoods and see everyone turn their heads and pull out their guns at me

 

^^ huh?

 

I took out my intake when i got my exhaust because it didn't let me hear the tailpipe sweetness (plus there was no real power gain with it IMO)


Nice way to get shot at....fun stuff huh

 

I hate to say this but our cars stock have a cold air intake. It sucks the air up in the right grille. It just don't have that hollow tube sound.

anyone know the difference between the v1 and v2 aem intakes?

 

I dont have either the V1 or the V2 but I think they just addressed some issues with the V2.

with that being said, Just go for the latest and greatest version. AEM V2.

 

V2 has larger diameter tubing.
