some people are going to say AEM, some are going to say Injen, some will say Iceman, some will ... ah, you get the picture. the point is, i think it's best to make that decision on your own. one thing you could do is to ask in the Civic forum who uses what and what their opinions are. then maybe check out some dyno charts wherever you can and see for yourself. just my opinion.

It's all a popularity contest.

I like IceMan.

But IMO an Iceman CAI is looking so "cheap" compared to an AEM one!

If you are speaking of the material that the intake is made of...it is like that for a reason...do your homework. Keep in mind...YOU are the one that has to live with (and buy) your intake.

I was just giving my opinion.

Uhm,....yea.....whatever Mr Wiseguy! You can be sure that Iīve done my homework about that and I just said that the plastic tubing of an Iceman CAI is looking way cheaper than the alloy one of AEM, thatīs all!! So I donīt see any reason to b**ch around...... All Iīve said is that Iīd prefer the AEM CAI because itīs looking way better in the engine bay than the Iceman and I havenīt said ANYTHING about performance or quality which will be about the same! So better learn reading more carefully before telling anybody to do his/her homework better....

By the way, I was just giving my opinion, too!

hey, you have any pictures of your car, or a webpage?

And I would have to say that I like injen better than AEM

I say AEM. But Injen and AEM are starting to become almost Identical, Injen are actually going to stop anodizing there intakes and start powdercoating them like AEM.

Iīve had a look on the Injen homepage and the dyno tests are showing that all Honda test-cars (S2000, Civic Si and RSX Type-S) gained hp and torque all over the rpm band! Is this possible and will it be like that with all Hondas (for a 5th gen Lude for example )???
