Has anyone tried out the new AEM CAI v2? Just curious what you think...

haven't tried it but they are supposedly the shit. and at about 100 more than the original they better be. i think it was in a magazine that they dynoed the v2 on a stock ex and gained like 12 whp. which is a buttload.

no shit - and what's special about them? The only thing i've heard is that they have like a double tube design or something like that ... something like a tube within a tube? And better material or something?

well actually i think it goes from one size tube to a larger or vise versa but hey i cant see spending 300 for the damn thing when you can do a couple extra things and get the extra horses that it puts out........i may be wrong but thats what i think

it's not better material. it's just the tube sizes. the extra tube does something with sound waves or some shit like that drawing air in more efficiently.

So does the tube go from a bigger to a smaller? Or the other way around? Or is it a tube w/in a tube?

http://www.aempower.com/product_intake.asp you should just check out the site

(I was gonna post the page too, but liquid beat me by 2 minutes :tongue: )

Also around the main page there are test results of using a V2 on a 96-00 Civic and it showed around 5.5 HP gain

what does resonant frequencies have to do with air induction? Perhaps i'm totally off base here, but it seems to me you'd want the air travel to be as laminar as possible... (To be honest, i really had no idea there was so much involved in an CAI haha)
