Looks better than I thought it would

looks and feels like a quality product. The tube is larger than I expected which is a plus. I will enjoy this purchase. The guide was pretty easy to follow and the installation was pretty easy too.

Pros
  • Air filter will last up to 100,000 miles before needing cleaning (depending on driving conditions)
Cons
  • old

Great reception! - Spare Parts

Wow! All I can say is a little acceleration, a deep aggressive sound and an amazing view into the engine bay. Also the intake pipe is HUGE! Good product! I tip my hat to AEM! Nice instructions, easy assembly, stickers and license plate cover included!

Pros
  • Low Pressure Aluminum Tube
Cons
  • Nothing

Nice short piston in spares

Very happy with this air intake. A high level of quality is expected in all respects. Sounds great, has a bit more power where this car needs it. Installation took about 40 minutes, eezy peezy. Got an extra filter sock which is also surprisingly reliable for what it is.

Pros
  • Easy install with common tools
Cons
  • Style 90

Cosmetically appealing. but that's all.

Looks great and even matches my Empire State style gray on my 2015 3.8 Genesis. but that's all. It has an almost lower/hollower tone, but you don't really notice it until you put it in. Even though they claim HP boost, I haven't noticed any difference. The instructions were good and clear, that's good. A bit overpriced for what you get. I would go to K&N if they made it for my trip.

Pros
  • Increased Performance
Cons
  • Dumped
