I don't know exactly number wise which is the best, I think they are all close. But I love my Injen

LAST EDITED ON 17-Jul-01 AT 02:52 PM (PST)Injen, Iceman, AEM....they are all pretty much the same. I chose Iceman becuase it conducts no heat. But as far as I am concerned all the CAI preform the same.
Another thing to think about is the Iceman comes in two peices so you can change it to a short ram if the weather is bad and you choose not to get the bypass valve.

AEM all the way...performs i believe 1-2 horses better than the iceman...and looks better in my opinion.

I have an AEM very happy with mine, it was my first mod, makes a nice engine sound during full throttle even without exhaust. Tip when you install a CIA, use a breather filter from your valve cover(purchased from pepboys for cheap) and cap off the plug from the CIA with a vacuum cap (also purchased from pepboys for 10 cents), it prevents recirculating hot air back into the CIA, not emissions legal though, but it only takes at most 10 minutes to reconect the hose if you need to. It doesnt really make a difference but evey little bit helps, Iam i right? Good luck and iam sure you will be happy with which ever one you purchase.
