but if you were to get one, get an aem cai, they give good midrange hp
And what car did the AEM give good midrange? Just curious...
I did an intake comparison between AEM and Iceman on two D16Z6 Civics ('94 EX, '95 Si).
I expected AEM to be better, but AEM lost some below 3000, and only made 2hp peak.
Iceman made 3hp peak in both underhood and CAI modes around 5000-6000rpm. However, in CAI, there was a peak GAIN of 6hp at 4400rpm that coincided with a louder note.
Just wondering if anyone else did comparisons on different cars.
