yeah i've heard a few ppl swear by the AEM V2.

 

^ Is it a big difference from the AEM V1? If so in what way???

 

I have an AEM V2 while I wait for my Lovefab setup to get here, and it is good for what it is. Just from reading this thread though, don't expect the V2 to transform your car into a beast. I have been very happy with the intake though, it sounds mean from 4K up. If you go this route though, just make sure that you plug the drain hole on the inside passenger fender (I don't know if you will need to do this with you CF fenders you said you are getting). Good luck with whatever setup you choose . BTW, I agree with Xviper, if the price doesn't matter then Forced Induction is the best intake .

 

Here, you can decide for yourself. Here are the two dyno graphs provided by AEM (who knows how accurate that makes them)
AEM V1 DYNO

AEM V2 DYNO

 

Yeah the forced induction part is a little ways off plus im a little undecided on what system to go with. Turbo is more power but supercharging is instant power. plus with the supercharger it takes power to make power, so im not sure which way to go. I've seen most guys use the comptech but I've not seen many guys turbo the S

 

V2 will compete with the rest personally, I just dislike the sound it makes.....I prefer a lil more bling and a lil more throtty sound but bang for $....V2 or Injen

 

yeah. what do you mean by "sound".

 

Do you want USDM or JDM???

 

JDM

 

I guess by instant power, you mean above 6k with the SC. Below there you aren't make much noticeable boost. Above 4k with a proper TC setup you will have more instant power than any SC for the S can produce.
