:bs:

I want to see dyno sheets. A B16 will never get anywhere near 300 whp N/A. Sorry.

I am not doubting that N/A is fast. They are a completely different monster than a turbo car.

Just to clear the confusion, the RSX V2 is NOT a cold air intake, it is a dual tubed SRI.

For everyother car but the RSX it is a CAI.

So is there a big difference between the two?? Would this be a bad move to with the V2?

the v2 is nothing but a ploy. the power you gain from it is minimal and it's just really expensive. in certain rpm's you'll actually lose torque over a CAI or SRI.

wow... so why would people say its the best intake on the market right now? it was said that it gets better gain than any other cai AEM offers. i dont want to go with an intake just because the manufacturer says its the best. althoug, on the website it has dyno sheets to prove... ??

it seems it's a bit different for the rsx than other cars i have checked up on and it does give quite a good bit of extra performance. but i'd also like to question how well it compares to the icebox.

because people are brand whores and like to make all kinds of claims with nothing to back it up. those dyno's on aem's site, do they list other mods? run conditions? im inclined to believe independant third party dyno tests more than what the manufacturers put out for their own product.
