At least tell us what continent it came from, i don't have a clue.

KaliKev · 12-23-2012, 02:34 PM

I think it looks great!

95-99 Nissan Maxima?

I can't wait for you to do a video review of it! If aem is telling the truth, then this is a hell of a bargain. Yesterday I was one click away from buying a muffler delete and instead I told myself I better just wait, its winter what's the rush. SO glad I did. I rather spend 300 on this intake then a muffler delete...if the intake really does give you 10hp...

You want the muffler delete...trust me. It's an awesome purchase that makes the car awesome and it sounds so good!

I like the idea and AEM makes quality stuff. Looks fine to me, but I prefer OEM and performance/functionality over bling. Do you have them in stock? I just passed the 1K miles mark so I'm looking to get an intake any day (was waiting to see about this system).

Does it come with a plug to plug up the stock sound tube inlet on the firewall?

I went with the Berk one...just the simple one with no tip. It adds about 3hp (not that much) but it also drops about 25lbs from the car. I want to get an intake, but it seems like the drop in filter is the best way to go, at this point.

lol yeah at this point. Which makes this aem really interesting. I was looking at their duel tip. I assume it would sound like yours?

Well it was made in the USA, but the MFG is from the far east.

It's older, 90-95 we'll say.

Yep we sure do.

They include a cover for the sound generator. Very similar to what Injen does. It basically covers the hole on the black box the sound passes through.

The Black cap to the very right in this photo.

Mitsubishi Galant?

PUSH808 · 12-23-2012, 10:04 PM

Made in U.S. but MFG in the far east. You're driving in snow, so I'm guessing it's AWD platform. I'm thinking a DSM car. Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, or the Plymouth Laser.

I sooooooo wish it was a 1G DSM. Something WAY less exciting and much more reliable.

Off to craigslist though, I'm pretty sure I still have boxes full of misc 1G DSM repair parts lol. Going to go build an EPIC winter beater car now! Thanks for the horrible idea.
