Hello,

I have a chance to get a really good deal on a AEM CAI and would like to know if there is a noticable performance and sound issues and also was it hard to install.




Thanks



John

 

 

Great product, good power increase, nice sound, easy install.

 

ShadyStyle,

Thanks for the reply....I just got it for a cool $100.00 bucks. What does it take to install?



Thanks



John

 

I used a phillips head screw driver, a flat head screw driver, a 10mm and 8mm socket wrench, and an alan key (I don't remember exactly what size, sorry), and a pair of plyers. Not really that much. Its really simple. There may actually be a tutorial on this site if yours doesn't come with instructions.

 

Cool ShadyStyle,

It had no instructions did you have to jack up the car?





Thanks



John

 

Which one are you talking about? The "L" type or the snail type?

 

Yeah. I have installed both types, and had to jack the car up on both. I had to take the driver side front wheel off so I could get in behind the fender well. That wasn't hard though, you just have to take the front four or five bolts and fasteners off and pull it back. Real simple.

 

Shadt Style and eggie, its the "L" one and I think i pretty much have it down.






Thanks

 

Thats the exact same one I have on my xB. I Love it. Let me know what you think once you put it on. If you need anymore help let me know.

 

shady style have you tried the injen cai, i was just wondering how they compare?

 

I really prefer the AEM over Injen. I find it to be a more reliable product. Maybe it is just personal preference though. But I feel like I get better sound out of AEM. Dyno shows power is about the same from application to application.
