AEM CAI ?
Does anybody here actually have this intake in their Neon? My wife crunched her stock airbox when she hit a really BIG deer, so i replaced it with the AEM CAI. If anyone else here has one, how did it affect the volume level from your front end? Mine sounds almost normal until around 3k rpms, then it starts to roar. By about 6300 rpm (where i usually shift when i'm in a hurry
), it sounds like Lightning McQueen from the movie Cars. Does this seem normal to you guys?
Oh, by the way, I didn't know that the 6+/- horsepower that AEM advertises for this application would make as much difference as it did. This was the best $210 I ever spent on a car part!

RE: AEM CAI ?
Yeah that sound increase is totally normal, i have the K&N Typhoon ($200 as well) and it is one of the better mods to have, along with the first mod almost everyone does to their Neons. On R/T's you really notice the sound differnce because of the secondaries in the intake manifold, but i couldnt say how much louder it makes a regular Neon. But remember, once you start modding a Neon, you never, ever stop...(or a least you shouldnt stop. lol)
