since you can't use the search feature i'll answer this: no, there will be NO NEW AEM CAI - they used my car for testing and found that they can't design one without losing power.

you may want to think about either padding the spoon STB or have some kind of spacer on the STB.

I think socal28 made some spacers for his CAI. They look like metal washers.

Oh, so washers would work? Do they have to be special washers or can it be purchased at a hardware store? Thanks

Yeah, I had custom billet aluminum 3mm spacers made for my Comptech and AEM.
This was done as a personal favor from a machinist at my work. I had another pair that I'm selling to someone in Texas, but that's it!
I'm thinking that you can use regular washers for the spacing since the STB doesn't really do anything anyways...
