and probably some goes to "testing" something I'm sure the cheap one doesn't do. And a few bucks for the premium name.

I was going to post the same question, but didn't want to get the :slap: for posting ebay links :lmao:

So, in a nutshell, the integrity of the "shitty" ebay exhaust is no better than the AEM, EVEN IF they were to have say, the same K&N filter on it? The piping is the same shit? I see fools EVERYDAY trying to sell AEM intake with used K&N's for the price of new.

One comes with a little AEM logo on it so the price shoots up about 80$.

You could also build it out of mandrel bent 3" exhaust piping, and silicone sleeves or weld it together, and it does a better job of keeping heat out.

Uh no. If you heat a pcv pipe hot enough, it will release noxious gases.

So yeah if you feel like killing yourself, by all means!
