Well I ordered my CAI last week and installed it tonight. Using the Fujita intake. Sounds awesome when you get on it. Also there is a noticeable torque increase. Only question to other who have it is it seems like my MAF is taught. I feel like there should be a bit more play in it.

No worries auto is good it would be better if you got the cvt but im kinda lost with your question though
"who have it is it seems like my MAF is taught. I feel like there should be a bit more play in it."
do you mean that the MAF is too tight?

did you play with the piping? you can twist it a little and still get a good grip on the rubber mount. trace the maf wiring see if there is another zip tie you can cut so it can loosen the wires a little

loosen up your piping, get everything snug and retighten ur intake. you should be ok. i had to mess around with my AEM intake like that a couple times will it was just right. congrats on the intake! it sounds insane when you gas it. my eyes lit up i totally wasn't expecting to hear a beast coming out of my bumper

i dont recall mine being to tight.... i will have to check it out
I have AEM CAI + DC catback and get great mileage.... This is at fast speeds too ... You shouldn't have to zip tie anything I didn't with my intake. I'll post pictures to show how it should be.
yeah pretty much same with me. It gets so loud when you hit the higher rpms and give it gas with dc sports

Looks possible to replace the stock piece with a rubber pipe as the fujita has.
Hi guys, I need assistance please, this is what is going on, last week I purchased an AEM CAI (21-550C)(I am out of US, so the problem is even bigger) and I installed it on a Nissan Tiida 1.6L (HR16DE) sedan 2011.
The sound is amazing, it fitted perfect except under this: around 4500 rpm i feel like a delay-drop-loss of power for around 1 seconds and then it start responding not straight again until 6500rpms. what can cause this? and other thing that i noticed is that at idle, the car is around 1000-1100rpm, previously it was on 700rpms.
The day that I installed the CAI, i made this: Installed AEM intake without battery, MAF sensor unplugged and reinstalled. Throttle body unplugged, cleaned and installed. Spark plugs changed(all intake manifold removed )
Is it needed to scan the car at the dealer and reflash the computer? Can they deny the deny the service and void the warranty per installing the CAI? WHAT CAN I DOOOO?
This afternoon I reinstalled the original nissan intake and the car is working perfect, I really want to use my $350 intake, please help me someone...
