And I personally like the AEM V2 which was kind of like a CAI and a SRI all in one. _____________________________ 1996 Accord LX Coupe Suspension Techniques Springs KYB AGX Struts Turbocharged (in reply to BaBoJoEy) Post #: 7

RE: Which Intake? - 7/17/2006 12:13:08 AM    03Sleeper   Posts: 1894 Joined: 6/15/2006 Status: offline Most hi-quality CAIs go for around 200-300...depending on the brand. AEM is a bit cheaper. _____________________________ 2003 Accord LX Sedan I4| 5AT 101045 Injen SRI w/ AEM Dryflow| DCSports Ceramic Headers| DENSO IK20 Sparks| CF Front Strut Bar| Pioneer TSG950M 6x9s| Alpine SPS17C2 6.5"| C-Tek Slotted/Drilled Rotors | Progress 24mm Rear Sway Bar (in reply to BaBoJoEy) Post #: 9

RE: Which Intake? - 7/17/2006 1:39:43 AM    BaBoJoEy   Posts: 24 Joined: 7/16/2006 Status: offline So i should get the AEM V2? Besides price, would would be the big difference from CAI from V2? Also, which would provide more Horsepower? I just want me car to be better - o -;; < Message edited by BaBoJoEy -- 7/17/2006 1:52:29 AM > (in reply to 02BlueAccord) Post #: 13

RE: Which Intake? - 7/17/2006 10:26:32 AM    03Sleeper   Posts: 1894 Joined: 6/15/2006 Status: offline V2 is AEM's CAI. Very popular and very good. I recommend buying it online because it is a little cheaper. Do a little browsing and as a last resort, bid on Ebay. Generally a CAI gives a bit more HP (around 5-7 HP) and better performance overall. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/performance/basket.php?brandid=1623&partid=15&makeid=1&modelid=135&year=2000 http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/performance/basket.php?makeid=1&modelid=135&year=2000&partid=15&brandid=1677 < Message edited by 03Sleeper -- 7/17/2006 10:30:05 AM > _____________________________ 2003 Accord LX Sedan I4| 5AT 101045 Injen SRI w/ AEM Dryflow| DCSports Ceramic Headers| DENSO IK20 Sparks| CF Front Strut Bar| Pioneer TSG950M 6x9s| Alpine SPS17C2 6.5"| C-Tek Slotted/Drilled Rotors | Progress 24mm Rear Sway Bar (in reply to BaBoJoEy) Post #: 14
