Hi all I'm getting my motors engine done soonish up rated cams ported and polished head etc etc, but I'm not too sure to stick with my type s intake with k&n filter or go down the AEM V2 route?
Anyone got any input on the best to have out of the two?
Anyone got either and can compare?
Thanks in advance

I have just bought an a8 intake. From people on here who have them, they love it. The aem is just as good so I've read!

I believe the AEM was designed to compete with the type s intake.
Either route, make sure you take the resonatior box out before you tune it

Depends how far you go with the work. Probably will get restrictive if you're aiming for 270bhp as you'll need a bigger throttle body.

Think it would only be an issue for Merlin & Nafe if he ever finishes building a h22

if you already have the type s intake no point in spending more money on the AEM just get the resonator out
