Today marks my first mod installed on my 05 6i ATX. I was a bit skeptical with all the reviews and problems with the AEM CAI and other CAI's for that matter. I ordered the AEM anyway after some input from a few race junky friends and today I finally had it installed.

First impressions were real good. The power increase is very very noticeable. As soon as I touched the gas I immediately had a evil smirk on my face. The noise is subtle and not as loud as I was expecting but still noticeable and roaring at higher rpms. No CEL either (crosses fingers) but its only been about 20-25 miles driving after installation.

Well worth the money IMO.

I will post pics later when I get out of work!

Don't worry you will get a cell, but do some highway driving and it will go away...

I haven't had a cell for a couple of miles now

I have had mine on for a year now with NO CEL,I wouldn't worry about it.

on my 04 i installed my AEM intake in october of last year and traded it in at the end of july and never had a CEL.

I got sick of the CEL and put back the original stock system today...havent experienced any problem with that :-D Question, is there normally a faint humming sound after shutting off the engine? it goes away after the power turns off completely...maybe im just being paranoid about my baby

The hum you hear is the car doing diagnostic checks. At least that is what my dealer told me.

Yeah, this sound drove me nuts and I thought I screwed something up. The throttle body buzzed for about 6-7 seconds after the key was turned off so I tore the intake off to see what was going on. Turns out the TB servo motor is vibrated back and forth about 2 degrees as part of a calibration or testing routine... :headscrat:
