CAI which one

[Houndskull]

which CAI should i get Fujita, AEM or K&N i know the AEM has the bypass to prevent water from going into the engine. friend of mine said get any one of them and then get the K7N filters which are reusable

[royroy]

well the bypass valve for aem is a seperate piece... and i think is pretty expensive too.... i would say go with the fujita one... and PM mazdaspeed for the price.. coze i rmb him posting something abt those..
and i dunno abt the reusable filters.. but i know you can just buy a kit that cleans the filter... but i havent try it..

[chu]

I think most of the filter is reuseable, only need to be oil thou. By the way the AEM comes with the new dry flow which do not need to be oil.

yeah the mazdaspeed from the manufacturers are way over priced i saw that post already. yeah i think the bypass valve is another 100 i think not sure. does the dryflow AEM same price? my biggest concern is the water going in. coz i know the filter faces down and sits low compared to other cars.

I agree with pearly. Plus I have the same one :)

At first that was the main problem I was concerned with too, also the car wash I like to use has an underwash section. I have used that car wash like 3 or 4 times since I got my intake installed and no CEL's.

I think the biggest problem of CAI's is, you get used to the sound at low rpm and when you want to hear it roar you gotta go a bit faster and you will catch urself speeding at some times... and the cops will catch you speeding as well!!

I have the Fujita intake and I love it, if you choose the Fujita PM Mazdaspeed cuz he's selling them at a good price.

Get the mazdaspeed, best all around and it sounds the best. Plus it comes with a water shield (splash gaurd).

Yeah but do you see the new Price..........

[3GFX]

Whats the new price? Is it not comparable to the other intakes? If not I still say get the AEM.

Search is your best friend!

[chinsterr]

Flip , do you sell the splash shield on its own ? And anyclue whether it will fit an AEM intake ? I keep getting CEL whenever i leave my car out in heavy rain

[Houndskull]

[Kevin@nextmod]

Injen my friend Injen.

[chinsterr]

you really cant go wrong with injen or AEM ... both are really big in the CAI/SRI industry

[FLIPDADY]

That's not too bad of a price. About equivalent to what I was quoted for MS CAI and exhaust installed in Peterborough.

[majic]

umm.. you get a 20% discount at mazda of toronto if you're an active member..

[3GFX]

Did no one mention the Simota SRI? It was on my list when I was looking.

[Byaaahhh]

I like the Fujita, and so far through this stupid weather we have been having for the last few weeks no CELs!

[Sean80]

There are two Fujita intakes correct?

[Zubbie]

There is only one listed on Fujita's website.

I thought i had read somewhere that there is an f2 and an f5 one is 3inch and the other is 2.5inch. I may be mistaking or just completely full of sh!t.
