yo is the cold air intake as loud as the short ram. (AEM)

does cold air open up the intake as much as the Short Ram.

no cold air is usually a bit on the quiet side, in comparison

does it open up the intake like a short ram?? what do you mean? If you think a short ram intake makes power. think again.

i know of a recent dyno test that showed a 2whp loss on a H22, with a short ram.

HKS just like AEM, is good quality. one think to look at is how you have to go about cleaning the filter. some require oiling, AEM has the whole dryflow thing whre its wash, dry and go... CAI and short ram are going to make oyur car noticebly louder. most likely short ram will be louder. and a little more throaty. it depens on how much your willing to risk hydrolock w/ CAI.

I wouldnt spend the extra money just because its AEM or HKS. For an intake a generic filter will work just as well for half the price

I laugh at that statement. Foam filters are shitty. Research it they dont filter worth a rats ass especially the HKS. AEM uses k/n filters. Generic filteres dont always work just as well. Usually quality is cheap. I have had a couple. And there filtration is prob not as great also. They have bypass valves to prevent hydrolock.

[mozzandherb]

O.K then just get Vibrant...they work fine and they are cheaper than AEM or HKS

Yup like he said, K&N is good, a little expensive though..

[Razif]

yep..k&n is good..last long too..

[HondaGuy1212]

K&N just relies on the oil to catch the particles, it is crap imo. Aem dry flow is where it's at.

Yessir. Why do you think most of these filters can gain so much hp. As I said in another thread you gotta sacrifice one thing for another.
