CleanGSR Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 This has been proven on a dyno many times. Performance, AEM is better. Personally, I say Looks, carbon fiber whale penis is pretty hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 You can do uber cheap and do the HDCAI (Home Depot Cold Air Intake). Not joking. If you are on a seriously cheap budget you can make an intake with pvc from HD, Lowes, or whatever and a K&N cone filter for all of $10 plus the cost of the filter. The PVC won't look bad if you buy the nice rubber couplers with the stainless tensioners. Spray paint the pipe the color you want and *poof* one really cheap CAI and you did all the work yourself. Works better than stock and will probably be better quality then anything coming from eBay/China. Now you can send me a check splitting the $180 I just saved you. My address is...

Xeryon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Whats funny is unless you plan on doing header, high flow cat, exhaust and injectors that the net result of 0 hp gain will be the same. Don't take me wrong. I like the whale penis myself and won't be making my own, but I have before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Sorry. It is unfortunate that the wife gave my member the same name as an intake system. It does make for some uncomfortable situations sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Ghey... Not really. I like the looks but the CF isn't for my car. I would love to get my hands on one of the abs plastic ones they used to sell on ebay in black or even the blue one. They were super cheap, like $39 and it included a knockoff K&N. Paint it to be whatever color you wanted and you had a whale penis knockoff for a fraction. I've been searching on and off for several months and have yet to find a store that still carries them.

cmgogo Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 having run both the AEM v2, the good ol home depot, and the egay w/ K&N i can tell you there is almost no difference between them. All your paying for with the AEM is the stupid little sticker that comes with it. as far as whale penis goes, do you really want your engine bay to look like this?

Xeryon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Oh noes! Whale pr0n! The correct term is a Power Chamber Intake. I shall call it that. Now if anyone knows where I can buy a plastic one and not a CF one I would be appreciative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTiS Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 just go get a cheap one from auto zone or advance auto or w/e. i think those are called spectere or somethin like that, then get a k&n filter or again the cheap spectere one. all together itll cost u like 36 bucks.
