    AEM CAI intake is on (but I don't know it)

    Installed the Aem CAI intake w/o bypass. Was pretty simple. Light as hell, really nice looking and done professionally. However driving I really didn't notice power improvements. Wasn't really expecting too much in that department though, so I'm not that disappointed. But sound-wise it is practically the same. I thought that it was supposed to be louder?? I went up to 5K and really no differance. Little disappointed at that. Just thought I would share.

    since the air filter is located arther away from u. its gonna be quieter than a short ram. to tell u the truth, my car at WOT with a short ram is louder than some cars with cai exhaust and headers, dpeending on the muffler. but yea the gains might not be felt by u but you probalby will see the results better on a dyno or maybe if u installed it during the hot summer since the air now is cold now.

    Disconnect the battery for about 15 minutes...lets the ECU adjust to the CAI quicker I think.
