Different intakes, same price

[ImportTunerR34]

Hi guys. This has been on my mind lately. Basically i can get an AEM CAI or an AEM V2 for the same price. I have been leaning on the V2 but the AEM guys designed it as a short ram for 94 accord ex's. I know that i lose a significant amount of low to mid end torque on the regular cai but wouldnt the same thing happen to the V2 when the temp inside the engine rises? Again I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

Here's a pic of the V2 (car's not mine, i wish though):

The links you gave were bad:

I don't know what other pic you were looking for though.

But the V2 is definently longer than the short ram, it should end right about where the 2 pipes are welded together on the V2. So the V2 will get slightly cooler air than the short ram will. Honestly it's not going to make that much of a difference no matter what you get, unless you have enough mods to need power in a specific powerband over another. AEM themselves claim that their V2 outperforms their own CAI, so if that says anything choose by that alone. But something with a cold air box OWNS all (cold air of a CAI and the high rpm power of a SRI; while not losing as much low-mid rpm power).

thanks for the info CivicSpoon. Yea i might just go with the V2 if thats the case. thanks
