so if my bank says yes to my loan, i should be getting my dream car AP1 S2K. i really wanna get rid of the AEM intake it has and get the PWJDM carbon intake with "bath". does this see any gains or sounds? i dont wanna boost it since i dont want stupid power just something fun and reliable

 

I got this Intake and it makes a bit of a brrraaappp sound at wot around 3-4000 rpm. Can't hear anything at 7000rp as my exhaust system is too loud.

Gains are good with a tune especially noticeable in mid rpms. I am still missing a retune with my bigger test pipe so can't speak for top end gains but it did feel good up top before my flashpro. The last bit of rpm did swing up quicker.

 

its also like a billion dollars.

people love the FIPK for the blend of sound, value and looks. if you arent after mega power, then for 1/5th the price its worth a look.

 

meh im not scared of the price tag actually, might even man up and get the dry carbon one

 

I had one, the fitment was terrible. For the price it should have fit, but it didn't. Never buying anything from PasswordJDM again.

 

KaJe209,

What do you dislike about your AEM?

 

Installed mine on the weekend, raised the hood latch and moved one bolt around and fitment was mint

 

i honestly just dont like how it looks in the engine bay. plus being metal, its going to soak up warm air as the CF intake box wont

 

I am happy with mine. It sounds great and I haven't had any problems or fitment issues. I was told the v1 versions made some noise but they made some changes to the V2 to fix that.

 

im also debating if its worth the extra $$$ to buy the kevlar/carbon one
