I’m getting an short ram intake for my 1995 240sx, I want to know what you guys suggest,
AEM or Injen…what company/ short ram intake is a Better performer?

 

i heard injen was pretty good, but search around.
ooorrrrr get a cheap pipe from ebay and just buy a K&N filter

 

I think Injen in 3in and AEM is 2.5in. But search their websites.

 

make one yourself... relocate the battery and run in to the right side of the engine bay... through the battery tray if you want a "cold air" intake

 

what are you people using?

 

the stock sr20det intake... not very "cold air"

if you are running ka, buy the injen intake and the injen cold air extension... found on ebay and lots of online stores

 

if it where me i would make my own intake its so easy to do but if you are choosing between AEM and Injen then i would go Injen they always seem to pull better numbers then AEM IMO. But seriousely i would just make your own save yourself $100+

 

The extension is that transparent part on the top of the picture right?
Don’t newbie me I’m ultra new!

 

No, the extension is the portion in focus. I got an Injen intake then got a CAI extention from someone else. You really notice the different in the feel of the car with the extention.

 

Injen IS Series Short Ram Intake $207.48 each

Injen EIS Series Cold Air Extension $103.74 each

that over $300 Dollars man, your nuts!!



AEM Short Ram Intake System $149.95


all those prices are free shipping....


I'm going with AEM boys....it's cheaper

 

Dark silver one is unavailable.


so it's Blue, red or polished.
what would you pick boys??

my car is pure stock, and it's Champagne gold color

 

i don't think the cold air extension is worth the money!!

 

Hey man I have the AEM on my 96. It is 2.5" compared to Injen's 3", don't know if you can really feel a difference between 2.5" and 3"... I can't. Both feel better than stock to me though. Both sound nice also.

If you get red or silver and want to change sometime for a blue one let me know. I'm going to paint my car red and I think my blue stands out kinda superman-ish. lol.

Seriously though, as long as you can find a shop that will do the bends for you you may be better off just getting one custom made and a k&n filter.

I got a 3" ebay intake before the AEM and it was nice. The angle of the bends was just a tad off which I think could have been easily adjusted.

If I could go back in time I would have saved my money and stuck with the 3" ebay intake with the k&n filter, not that AEM is not good, just overpriced as are all Name brand intakes.

 

*If you want to get Get the Injen Intake with or without the extension.

*If you want to stay legal in Cali and look pretty get the AEM its 130 on ebay.

*If you want it too look semi pretty get ELCheapo intake pipe and K&N filter...Or make your own

*If you just want the sound cut your airbox
