dude an intake is an intake, arguably you could bitch and search all day about the 1 hp difference between them but it all comes down to which you like the look of more. Personally i'd go w/the aem rather than injen. search around there's dyno's somewhere

intakes are different - strange but true. there are extensive comparisons out there between them and it's been shown on plenty of dyno runs.
you will find aem's outperform all others consistently, but Iceman occasionally surpasses aem on the high rpm band, or at least matches aem for all the gains.
I say definately go for the v2 if you must have an intake. and do not spend over $300!!! $442 is crazy

i dunno, i was quite happy while i had my pvc intake, then i got an ebay intake here from kris and all it did was make my engine bay look cleaner, i didn't notice any performance diff.
i wouldn't even spend 200 on an intake imo, especially if u plan to go turbo, cuz it'll just end up here on the for sale/wanted board

Get the injen, it makes more power, due to the way it is made. The AEM intakes have a sharp 90 degree turn right at the throttle body, the injen intakes has about a 60-70 degree bend causing for better flow.
