AEM COLD AIR OR K&B INTAKE?!?!
Hi im planning to purchase a intake for my Rx-8 soon, so I was wondering which 1 do you perfer the AEM cold air or the K&N intake. The K&N says over 10 horses guarantee and I heard the AEM doesn't give much as horses but good sound.
If there is anything better then these two please let me know. Thanks |
You should search, we have about 4 intakes for our cars, I personally i have the AEM unit. & yeah it sounds reallly bad ass, The 1st gen K&N was actually pretty bad, it some cases ppl lost HP with it. The 2nd gen is suppose to be better.
Also you can look into the Racing Beat Intake system. or the HKS unit But the main difference between the two you're talking about is that AEM is a CAI n k&n is an SRI. |

Nice!!!!
|
I have the RB right now. It was suppose to be CAI w/ the ram air duct, but my front bumper doesn't fit with the duct. Kinda wish I went with the AEM cold air intake.
|
oo thats to bad well im planning to get the polish AEM cold air since the red and blue is kind of funky looking color on a silver 8
|
AEM is on my list of intakes I want to get for my car. Just not sure of how I'm going to clean the filter. I'm gonna have to take the front bumper off everytime I need to clean it.
|
I recommend the Revi if you don't want too loud.
It does a nice job smoothing the idle too. |
