HOLD UP WAIT JUST ONE MINUTE!!!!!!

AEM-K&N-INJEN @ $160-$300 is a waste of money???

Then why does ANYONE buy them at all? I can get the cold air intake tubing for $36 bucks on Amazon Prime and a name brand filter for about the same, and you're telling me its just as good?

An internet high five to the first person that can give me proof.

i dont see what the difference from a aem pipe to a no name one its a pipe aslong as its straight through, but its the filter that you want to be a aem or K&N or what ever name brand you like

The reason the more expensive ones sell is because of customers in California, who have to spend extra on mods which are CARB approved. Also, many people want the name brand on there, or just don't know any better.
