    Default Which CAI for MPS6 (or MPS3)??

    Hello guys!!
    after my recent ECU reflash by ECUTEK ,i would like now to proceed to my next mod,which will be a CAI!!
    many stories,many opinions confused me!!

    until now i stand between 3 choise...

    INJEN
    AEM
    CP-E

    what do you think between these 3 shall be my next CAI??i heard of AEM power gains 29.9 HP!!!!!!unbelievaible!!i strongly think ,that no CAI can give us 29.9 even with reflash or something else!
    can we expect anyway 10 or 15 horsepower gains?
    and finally...which is the best???


    thank you for your answers!

    I dunno these cars seem to respond pretty well to Intakes of any sort.. Probably due to the Factory Airbox and Filtersetup being more Restrictive than a Straw..

    I put a K&N Typhoon Kit on my MAzda 3... its a short ram tho..

    I Break Traction in the Dry in 3rd when i punch it.. not fully blown wheel spins but chirping as the torque comes on..

    I'm thinking that there's not much seperating the CAI's. You'll find positive reviews for all 3. I agree 29+ HP gains are unrealistic but expect atleast 15hp.

    I went with the CP-E CAI on mine but as they are designed for the US version I had to cut off part of the mounting plate to make it fit. Apart from that it seems alright. Plenty of induction and BOV noise but I’d imagine that they’ll all give you that.

    Moved to Intake Thread

    For me I have the CP-e CAI and whilst I have not had it dynoed, I believe the power gains would be minimal but overall response and coming on to boost is quicker, plus you can't beat the sound at full revs
