Default Intake suggestions

I am looking to put a CAI in my 2003 Z and have been doing a little research but havent heard anything about AEM. What do you all think about AEM cai's?? They look sick imo...

Your objective for getting a CAI is...looks?
Usually the looks=more money being spent.
As already mentioned,performance wise,all
CAI'S are pretty much the same.By the way,
the AEM is also the same as a Nismo(AEM makes e'm
for Nissan).If you want something thats cost effective
with some bling,get a Popcharger with a polished
Z tube.

The gains are negligible. I got my Nismo CAI for looks and the sound at high RPMs. I don't remember the details, but AEM seems to have been a popular choice a while back.
