Sound waves, huh? Sounds kinda gimmicky to me, but if it makes more power than the old AEM, good for them.

yeah that sounded kinda infomercialish, but if it does make more power, who am I to critique it.

Am I missing it or is the applications page the only place I see any mention of the V2 on AEM's website? http://www.aempower.com/application/...pplication.htm

Sadly I don't see anything next to the Prelude section.

Actually sound energy is used heavily in getting high-volumes of air to flow efficiently. I'm not really sure how they're getting any kind of significant gain on the intake side though.

I would also love to see some 3rd party dyno's of it. Hopefully it's not a gimick like the ol` Tornado Intake --> http://www.tornadoair.com/

I've been looking around for some good AEM CAI prices recently. If this V2 isn't too much more $$ and does improve performace AND it's avaliable for the 92-96 prelude.... I might get one
