where to buy/import a AEM CAI??

[Predator]

Does anyone know a good shpo wich sells the AEM CAI in europe and which would ship it to germany?!

I just wanna buy this thing

tcc in holland has got aem stuff (they are on the list), I think they post it through europe. All the aem stuff looks real nice, that one thing that's sure.

I think AVB-Motorsports (belgium) is selling them, too! The link is in our shop/ brand list. I think it´s a good decision and I´m thinking about buying one again, too! But maybe (but really just maybe!) I will save up my money for a full Mugen exhaust system. Not sure though. It´s this system or none!
Are you going to buy it without or with the bypass-valve?? I´m not sure if we would really need it....

[Predator]

Ill buy it just without

[Predator]

Nah I think u dont need it! So mayn ppl have told me that they dont have any probs with hydrolock- and the chance that the filter is getting fully underwater is really very small!

[Predator]

We could buy it together?!?!?

you haven't got a 4 wheel drive i think

Did you know that the honda civic of a few generations back was made in 4x4... and the civic shuttle... and an accord

I don't think you'll need a bypass-valve. If you want to be sure, ask in the store were you're going to buy it.

Maybe we could do that! But in the moment I don´t have got much money left and I´m still not sure if I should really buy one! I´ll have to wait some time...

You must be carefull with that, there are a lot of stores with personel that knows less of cars than you yourself do.
One thing is for sure, never will the whole 'tube' be filled with watter... it may be that some water gets it all the way up to the engine, but does it do any harm? With NOS there will be water injected 2! But I would be careful with it 2, don't know what 2 do.

I like to have a cold air intake too one day but I don't know if I'm going for AEM. These things are really expensive a AEM CAI for my car is like 350€ a lot of money for an air intake. If you're on a budget (like I am) you can also get some custom piping and attach an K&N cone filter to it.

It works out a lot cheaper to get it from the States than in Europe, you should do a search and try and find the cheapest price online, it can make a big difference!

[Predator]

But most online stores there want u to pay bay credit card- i dont ave one i dont want to fetch me one just to buy a CAI!

Or do u know a store where u can pay on a other way?!

And the shipping would cost about 20$ dunno whatthe prices are here in europa for that?!

What do you think of an iceman intake? When I took a closer look at it this one seems better than an aem, an aem is made of aluminium(or steel?), that becomes hotter than a 'plastic' tube like iceman.

Actually the engine will perform better with a little bit of water (and I mean just a LITTLE BIT!) in it because the compression will be raised this way. But too much water will destroy it or at least some very important and expensive parts!
I don´t think that the alloy piping of the AEM CAI will get hotter than the plastic piping of the Iceman CAI. I dunno why exactly anymore but I´m sure that I´ve read that somewhere.
