Selling AEM CAI
Decided to go back to Stock Airbox for now. It works great, it just looks all jacked up. $100 and it's yours.

edit:The primary reason for this is the thread about ECU vs. Intake in the EM section. I figure if Shiv says it, it must be true.

Here's why:

The ECU finds it difficult to read the new data because much of the air mass smashes against the side of the tube, missing the hot film in the MAF sensor. This is why MAF readings are lower (not greater) with aftermarket intakes. Hence, the lean-run conditions intakes tend to induce. This does not equate to more airflow as illustrated by dyno testing on WRXs running MAF-less speed density systems based engine control systems.
