cold air or short ram intake?

[hondax2004]

is it worth getting either one of these, without haveing an exhaust? which one is better, and i should get

 

[hondax2004]

injen or Aem?

 

[dj_cronic_metal]

either is fine and either you one you will see results from even if you don't have an exhaust

 

[sicksquishey37]

without gettin an exhaust you will run lean but i think that injen just because i have one nothing against aem though

 

[fwdpower]

You won't run lean. Your ECU will compensate for the extra air.........

 

[dj_cronic_metal]

By dumping extra fuel into the mix! woo winters are horrible out here with that.

. That's the funniest thing I've heard all day. I have an intake with no exhaust that I've been using for over 2 years.

Doesn't matter which one you get. You hardly gain any power from either. You're better off with an eBay intake and an AEM Dry Flow filter if you want aftermarket. You're just paying for the brand name.

AEM v2 ftw

we should probably sticky this thread.

after reading these threads...lol

An intake is an intake is an intake...they are all basically the same thing. There are only a few exceptions, but I won't go into that because you will never buy them.

AEM V2 Sounds amazing, I got it in mine and its totally worth it.

On a stock ex motor your not gonna feel that much of a difference. You could get a eBay intake that does the same thing. save up for a chipped ecu or something like that.

 

[oddeb707]

Neither.

Unless you get a cold air, a short ram will really do more damage then help. This proves especially true for such a weak car like a Civic. If we are talking something more powerful like a K series, then the response to a CAI or even a V2 would be greater. If you are afraid of hydrolock, then don't bother with anything besides a K&N drop in air filter in your stock airbox.

not much difference between the 2
dont really see how a short ram would hurt seenin as the stock one is somewhat a short ram

Hasn't this been covered before?

I didnt even know that this kind of question still exists.....

 

[dank24]

I am pretty sure your car runs on a carburetor. I would just upgrade to a Holley and you will be set straight.

 

[matt96ex]

threads like these make me want to gouge my eyes out...
dank is right though.
