I know that this arugment between people has been around for years, but i would like to know, What is better for a sr20de, Injen or AEM. I've heard some things like yhte AEM is missing a rubble couplet or somethin, and Injen robs you out of hp. Could someone please settle the score, im puttin a poll on this. If you say HKS, tell me where i can find one, cuz i haven't yet.

brand names = nothing
intakes should have a high flow filter, and pipe that is roughly the same inside diameter as your throttle body
other than that, all the other stuff is BS.
bigger intake tubes do next to nothing, unless you have a perfectly shaped reducer connecting it to your TB. technically you can get the air going into your engine to 'speed up' in this case by the 'venturi effect' rule that a certain amount of air put through a smaller inlet will speed up the air, if the inlet is shaped right
AEM's v2 tries to employ this in the stepped part of the tube but i have yet to see proof that it works because it gets bigger, then smaller, so the net change would be 0
