Product Description
AEM Short Ram intake systems are an economical alternative to our Cold Air systems and deliver performance, value and ease of installation over any other short inlet intake. Our Short Ram intakes install easily under the hood and cost less because we use less material to manufacture them. During the development process, we found certain applications respond favorably to shorter inlet lengths over our longer Cold Air designs. For these applications (denoted in the search results page), we offer a Short Ram system only. We perform extensive temperature testing to locate the filter in the coolest area of the engine compartment, which allows our Short Ram systems to achieve the lowest inlet temperatures possible. Please refer to our temperature testing procedures for more information.

Better then stock CAI (cold air intake)
By Anthony
I installed this on my 97 Honda Civic Ex. After installing now has more throttle response and sounds better. Can not beat the price and had free shipping. The only bad thing I can say about this product is the instructions that came with it. You can try to use K&N's off there website but it is a little different. If you are looking for more HP and top end speed then I would go with the CAI over this. But if just looking to add some HP and sound better then stock then I would go with this. Also you do not have to worry about hydrolock. Other then that it works great and is better then stock cold air intake. Also it did not come with a license plate cover. Not sure if they only put those in the CAI which cost more. It did come with stickers. To see pics of it on my car please visit [...] Please note that I live in CA and just had a smog check which I passed but the tech keep looking at my intake and had to check it online to see if it was legal or not. If you go and buy a cheap tube you my fail vs name brand as they have a sticker on them which the tech looks for to pass you.

Great product... Totally worth it!
By Daniel Guzman Fernandez
I just bought this short ram a few weeks ago. And I am very glad I did. I installed it on my Civic 98 EX Vtec and you can certainly feel the difference. Not a big deal in low revs, and it is not as louder as you may think (this is better for me). But let me tell you the difference at high revs (4200 to red line). Performance is just awesome, you can feel it and hear it. Makes your engine sounds like it has a professional racing filter, I also have installed a header and the high fuel rail from AEM and when vtec opens you can feel this filter doing what it does really well.Installation took me around 15 minutes, very very easy to install (instructions are not very clear and it is a point maybe AEM should try to improve, but not a big deal cause you can not screw up anything at least you don know anything about your engine).I totally recommend this product.
