It'll be hard to tell unless you find someone to switched one out for the other or find some actual published numbers and/or comparison charts.

both are same in design. aem uses metal that connects to throttle body,injen uses a silcon? elbow to connect to the throttle body. i would say aem is better quality. i have a injen cai no complaints. if i had to do it again i would gone with aem because of the elbow that goes to t.b. injen is 2 3/4 pipe i don't know what aem is.

advanton's good, I got my Injen CAI there, but make sure you have some time down for putting it on..it might take a while...taking apart the filter box might be a pain.

Something tells me you didn't look very hard. Aside from these questions already having been asked both manufacturers have dyno charts on them. Your best bet is to go to injen.com and aempower.com and look for yourself.

People have ordered from adventon. As far as I know, no one's complained.

You know what? You're absolutely right. There used to be one on the forums from Injen, but I can't find it. Sorry about that. IOU one apology.

I've seen problems with the Injen intake having broken mounts. I've read about it on these forums and seen it personally on a members car. Never seen, heard or read about problems with the AEM intake. Good luck!

AEM also use resonator pulse technology in their designs that create a mild supercharging effect and they claim that horspower gains are larger with their units

get AEM man..Like J said, some of the people on this forum had the Injen and something cracked or broke..cant remember what but it was enough for that intake to go in the garbage. I havent heard of ANY problems with AEM.

as for power increase they should be about the same..

btw, i hope u have a manual cause a cai wont fit on an auto
