No but I'm sure it sucks ***, as does the rest of the Nismo lineup, with regards to both performance and pricing.

Seriously, To the best of my knowledge, the Nismo CAI is the AEM with a 25-30% markup.

That's a shame. I had high hopes for a different design.

Is anyone gonna get this now? Or are you just gonna stick with your current setups?

Well I have it on now it was too late once i finished to take pics...

First off it was a real pain in the *** to put in. Second the quality is not what I expected. and third it yields a 5.4 Hp gain.

Hmmm...It will do for now I guess but I think ima have to change it.
