I just installed my AEM V2 CAI today! Took around 4 hours, but well worth it! I noticed power increases in the entire rpm range, but mostly down low! I also noticed I stay in VTEC shifting from 1st to 2nd, but it does that if I go all the way up to 9K in first gear. Before the v2 was installed, when I would shift from 1st to 2nd at 9K, my rpms would drop to around 4500 rpms goin into 2nd. Now it drops to 6200rpms, keeping me in VTEC the whole time! No VTEC delay! I love it! Great sound too! But yah, great intake!

 

Congrats!

 

Wait, if you shifted from from 1st to 2nd at 9k, you'd drop all the way down to 4.5k? Sounds strange to me.

But glad you like the intake! I may get one eventually just for the sound.

 

yah, it seems my rpms went up a little bit

 

well i'll be the first to say that's physically impossible. if you're getting a vtec delay in between gears regardless of what mods you have, you're not driving it right.

congrats on the intake tho. i hear it sounds the best out of all of them.

 

He could just be driving more aggresively now than he did before. I've noticed after people can hear the "fun" intake noise they tend to drive a bit differently.

 

time for a SC now

 

maybe thats it, you could be right. Yah I would get a S/C, but Im gettin rid of my S2K for an NSX down the road. I'll S/C my NSX for sure. So Im waitin.

 

lol i need to get an intake now to see if i drive any harder. but strangely enough i find the stock intake very loud already. i get tired of hearing it and am steadily waiting till i can get an exhaust to balance it out

 

what exhaust do u wanna get? Dual or single? I have an angled single. Very loud but sounds good. Turns heads alot. I have the Apexi N1
