Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

    AEM or Injen

    Who makes better cold air intakes?

    #2
    this is a easy one. for 2 reasons:

    1)i hate AEM intakes b/c of the look.

    2)Injen looks better under the hood.

    Injen makes the intakes. im not just sayin that b/c its a BIAS opinion but i read a tech artical on it once. AEM doesnt make good intakes unless u dont plan on doin ne more engine work 2 ur car b/c the intake is made of some type a metal that bends to easily, espescialy when ur doin mods that REQUIRE you 2 take off the intake. and on Injen's dyno charts the've been know 2 produce NO LESS THAN 10hp.

    the best thing i would use AEM for is adjustible cam gears or somethin. but never the intake.

    yeah every 1 says that it comes in 3 different colors but we aint tryin 2 play skiddles under the hood. but every1 up here may say different but i know from experence that Injen will yield u better power gains.

          haha, thats funny. but remember, u do get what u pay for. although with intakes i can see where boostd is coming from. personally, i've been looking at Injen for sometime A)dyno charts B)they are some of the cleanest looking intakes.

          also, u could do what i did and save some money and do a ghetto DIY short ram...search for that and check it out...

                An intake is an intake. only diffrence is the filter elemnt. Egay intake is fine

                  I would get a direct link for someone who has bought one and likes it off ebay. My brother got one for his 90 laser and he had to mod it. Find a seller who has sold to someone before. Good Luck!

                    i got the one i had in my car on egay. from prostreetparts or some shit. they're all the same. aluminum pipe with a filter on the end.

                    fuck it, go boost. it pwns intakes anyway.

                      its true an intake is an intake, only difference is the filter guys. the only gain you will feel between an ebay or brand name intake really is a physchological difference
