What about the Injen intakes?

Post by **4felix20** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

i like injen.

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

I've heard good things about both injen and AEM. But since I'm probably gonna go with an apex'i setup, I'll probably get an apex'i one.

Post by **GEO** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

Zero, what website offers these intakes?

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

Which one??

http://www.auto-xtreme.com/intakes19.html (AEM)http://store.dragracing.com/ca...id=99 (AEM + INJEN)http://www.apexi.com (You guessed it...apex'i)

--doing a quick google search will give you countless results...

I use a Hot Shot intake mated to a JWT pop charger. Been doing great for the past 3 yrs or so.

the piping's gonna be about the same no matter who makes it, just so long as it won't rust over time or absorb so much heat from the engine bay, but that isn't so much of an issue. I'd say go with whatever blings the most to you. As for the filter, A'PEXi is the way to go; in a test, it flowed the most and filtered the most as well, so just keep that in mind.

Post by **GEO** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

OK.. How do I get a seperate pipe and thena seperate filter?

im happy with my KN

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

K&N may actually be harmful to your engine...

Post by **jdmfreak** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

Ive heard about that somewhere but how can it be harmful?

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

The oils may damage your MAF, and the filter lets too much dirt through.

Post by **Spoolin95GSX** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

That's what happened to our stealth. It sucked up all the excess oil that K&N put on the filter and you can fill in the rest...

can u beat 140 shipped for an aem? ebay believe it or not

Post by **GEO** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

What ya think... 15 hp for $197 -- INJENhttp://store.dragracing.com/pr...id=99

or $144 for 5 HP --AEMhttp://store.dragracing.com/pr...id=99

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

Those are ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM hp increases...you won't get an increase like that from an intake.

edit: The AEM on sounds reasonable, I still trust Apex'I more though.

Post by **Jookmasta** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

um u wont get fifteen horses from an injen intake. i have an aem personally and i can vouch for three to five, but fifteen, no way. i can put some money down that that is false. they are pretty much constructed the same way but i know for a fact that the aem will bolt on much quicker than the injen. plus u can save that extra fifty bux and put to a CAI from injen which can hook up to the aem. just my 2 cents

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

Injen is the only company that makes a CAI for the 240sx, right (because apex'i only makes a short-ram afaik).

Post by **humpy012** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm

where is the cai for 240's routed? Does it go all the way across the engine back to where the resiator is behind the driverside bumper?

Post by **GEO** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 9:38 pm
