AEM SRI driving me nuts...i'm gonna yank that sucka out

Okay...at least twice a day i get "is your car spose to sound like that?" or "wtf is that sound?"

my AEM SRI sounds like a frikken UFO...the humming is so loud on the outside...ppl can hear me from a block away...

anyone else having this problem?

someone told me AEM's filter element is just extra noisy and that K&N's filter is alot quieter...is that true?

i would think the K&N would be louder b/c of it's double cone design that let more air in

i'm getting used to mine now, the only life adjustment i had to make with it, was coasting home when i got back late at night, so i don't wake up that entire section of the neighborhood.

it'll grow on you
