I definately like the AEM intake, but I think I like the Fujita better just because its one pipe. I am sure the reason AEM did that is so they can make money off selling the bypass. Anyway, how does it sound? You need to post a video like I did with the Fujita CAI so we can compare sound. Definately try to get some pics in better light so we can see how it looks going into the wheel well.

I got it from the AEM facility in Hawthorne and it was free. They used my car for installation instructions and gave me the piece for free.

yeah thats what I said, only good is it will probably get CARB since it's AEM, and for those afraid of hydrolock, they have that option. I am glad I got the Fujita though.

i would like to know if there will be short ram intakes...i am afraid that if i do get the CAI i will suck up water...i like AEM, but does the Fujita come with a bypass valve, cause if not i would have to go with the AEM
