Does anyone have the AEM V2 for the Si. If so, how do you like it? Would you get it over the Injen CIA?

Have you tried a search, a few members here have it. Keep in mind that the V2 is a short ram. Also Injen claims that their CAI performs as good if not better than the V2. Price is also a factor.

Or atleast I was under the impression it was a short ram...

I have it on my Si, I would buy it especially since it can actually be heard even with my HKS catback. Also it is still considered a CAI cuz of the widened section of the intake has. I had the AEM CAI first then switched cuz it was my B-Day present!!! Anyways I totally think it is better then Injen, I do not like Injen, had one on my other car sucked ass, that's about all it sucked, he he he :D. V2 gggrrroooowwwllllsssss, anyways, I have heard but have not felt lower end torque die in my car. I love it and I am sticking wiht it!!!!!!!!!!!! :D ;)

Everyone looking into the V2 should check out TOV's new write up of the V2 installed on an EP.

how does tube diameter equate to an intake being classified as a cold air intake?

EDIT: the TOV article is very informative.
