ok i have tried vigorously to figure out some specs on all the intakes for my 2003 OZ lancer and I think I want the injen one not the short ram on though. But I saw a post on importtuner about hooking up the us lancer and they used the short ram intake so i decided to ask my fellow lancer enthusiasts so HELP!!!

I would love suggestions and opinions i have been loookin for a month and a half and have a headache i am looking for some hp gain!!!! short ram or cold air induction!!!! which brand i think i like injen!!!! help !!!

 

Help yourself to the search button.

 

i honestly have !!! otherwise i wouldnt post it but i knew that was going to be the first response!!! thankx

 

It basically breaks down to this:
The gains on short ram vs cold air are minimal if any. The short ram is stuck in the hot *** engine bay. But the cold air piping is stuck in that same hot *** engine bay. Unless you heat wrap the piping it's safe to say the gains are negligible between the two. Based on this, I'd go with the short ram to save a little green.

 

ok INJEN AEM
SRI CAI

I unfortunatly live in minnesota

 

AEM over Injen - heard some stories of the Injen filter element doing nasty things like... breaking off and getting sucked into the engine.

 

wow that is pretty crappy that the injen filter does that is scary

 

wouldn't that be kinda hard? especially since it would have to go thru the small holes in the honeycomb first?

 

i dont know waht do you suggest to get ?? SRI CAI injen or AEM

 

AEM CAI is the way to go, i love it. i've heard the injen one and it sounds higher pitched and ricey. :P

 

I think he is more reffering to the collapse of the filter itself. I dont see a lancer having enough air flowing through it to suck an intake in.

 

RRM SRI all the way bro! Check out thier website.

thanks j lancer is that what you are runnin the rmr?

 

Straight up man, I would go with the RMR short ram. It looks great, it's innovative in that it benefits from the stock air dam, it's sounds throaty not ricey, and it's got a full heat sheild. I've got it on my car and I've never been happier. The instructions are easy to understand and it only took me about 45 min to install. I promise you won't be disappointed. Take a look at the website and see for yourself.

 

sweet rmr!!!!! maybe is there that big of a hp gain between the rmr sri and the aem cai
