What would be the best Cold air intake for an 05 civic? Aem intakes or over 200$ but a K&N intake is only 89$ Whats the difference if the horsepower and torque have the same gains from both company's?

 

AEM cold air intake will give u more horsepower . Im pretty sure AEM will be highly reccomended on this site.

 

yeah i agree w/ pcupo, almost everyone on this forum has an AEM CAI. its been proven on the dyno that AEM give u more horsepower than any other intake, it varies depending on your engine and you turbo or lack therof, but usually results in 5-8 horsepower

 

the 6th gens react best to the intakes based on AEM's numbers. I ofund it surprising that a Short Ram made lik 8.9 hp on a 98 ex

 

i kinda doubt those numbers...but ive always worked with CAI so idont have that great of a base on ram air

 

I'm more of an Injen man myself. But it's just a metal pipe, kinda hard to screw up. Shoot, if you have access to a manderal pipe bender and a welder you can make one.

 

the key is to make it out of actual metal...and not pvc
