Review on 🏎️ AEM 21-750 Cold Air Intake System: Improved Performance and Non-CARB Compliant by Cameron Aleman

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Difficult installation in 2014 B8.5

I have a lot of experience with cars. The fit of this kit isn't the best, but it can be made to work. The instructions say to add trim to the edges of the metalwork around 90 degree bends. Good luck with that, I had to cut mine. This installation could have been a lot easier if you had used reduced lead hex head screws instead of the supplied hex head screws. Putting the top cover on was nearly impossible due to the location of the mounting screws on the front. Eventually I had to lengthen the wires at the MAF sensor connector because they were very tight and I was concerned that bending the motor mount would eventually break the wires. Designers have to decide that. Installed, for such a price I can forgive the shortcomings.

Pros
  • Everything OK!
Cons
  • No
