Review on AEM 21 793C Cold Intake System by Mario Hinton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for enthusiasts

First of all I have to say that AEM has definitely put a lot of good R&D into this kit. The power increase is 12 hp and its claimed torque is 11 lb-ft. 2 problems with it. One of the torque readings on their sheet shows a 5 lbf torque loss. , a car with a power of 300 hp needs to develop FWD of 240 hp. with 20% transmission loss up to 255 hp with 15 percent transmission loss. Share your findings with them and the rep said he would email R&D. I contact my tuner shop to ask them to run my 2018 Maxima with an AEM air intake on their dyno to see my results. I have a feeling it will be very different from AEM and I will also be running my stocked Maxima women 2016 with standard airbox with green panel air filter to compare the difference. That's the closest I can get to the baseline. hope this information helps
