check point, because at every checkpoint you'll have to stop and make sure the clamps are tight and that the filter isn't falling apart haha
looks just like a cold air version of the cheapo ebay WAI's | |

Actually, there are a number of people that swear by the CP's, that they are simply AEM rip-offs - same shape, maybe slightly cheaper material, but good fit & function. | |

Yeah they are an almost exact copy of the AEM. A buddy has one and it looks the same as my AEM.
You can also get them through Nopi under the "Number One" name brand. | |

jeesh, tough crowd today!
they are NOT CRAP, they are CARB approved in all 50 states, they fit as good as an AEM, the brakets actually are like the SAME as the AEM, and when it comes to the clamps to hold the piping together, gimme a break.
i have been cross country twice with this unit in my car, never once did i have to stop to 'tighten' anything.
whatever, people have asked about them, just passing the infos along.

alot of parts are just like AEM, all you are doing is basically spending money on the name.
Its just like clothing

| I'm sorry, but I'm a label whore...if I get a part for my car, I want a name that's synonomous with quality. I don't care if it looks like the real deal, I want the real deal.
Also, support for a company that makes products for our car will almost insure that they'll keep continuing to produce parts for our cars, or at least take it into serious consideration. We can't keep blaming companies for not producing parts if we're quick to jump on the 1st cheap knockoff that comes about.
