The difference between AEM and others is they dyno tune and test their out to show what the power increase will be.

vs. selling a piece of crap on ebay that will likely not increase your hp by as much. Read up on some of the technology involved in the V2 system and you'll be impressed. Intakes are a lot more than a cheap piece of aluminum tube and a crappy filter.

where's the graph of the ebay ones,i bet they give 7 hp also to be a filter is a filter
 
Ok just got me another eclipse...dont know that much about them all i know that this one is the RS version...very low on horsepower compared to my GST Spyder...now i was searching on EBAY n saw a cold air intake non name brand for about 40 bucks and i saw the Injen intake for about 120 plus shipping...is there a real big difference in these? i know u get what u pay for but i just wanna know is it the brand name that makes it cost more or what? and do they come with instructions on how to put it on becuase i see no How-To's for it.
