AEM's ETI Cold Air Intakes Add 9 HP to 2008, 2009 and 2010 Scion tC 2.4L

The stylish Scion tC has been attracting the attention of drivers since its introduction in 2005. Any driver looking for a compact car with good fuel mileage and stylish interior that is packed with an abundance of features should look into the Scion tC. The newer models from 2008 to 2010 have brought some needed improvements in the exterior and interior design. The addition of the iPod interface was also a nice touch. Although the Scion tC is a great buy for your money, the 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine is not very powerful.

To increase the power and performance in your 2008, 2009 or 2010 Scion tC, AEM Induction Systems has released two cold air intake systems part 41-1401C with a gunmetal gray finish and part 41-1401P with a polished finish.  These were designed to fit the tight engine compartment of the tC.  These cold air intakes are not typical cold air intakes.  They were designed with AEM's Electronically Tuned Intake (ETI) technology.

These intakes were designed with AEM's ETI module which electronically adjusts the tC's MAF sensor to properly read air density.  The result is an intake system that works with factory electronics and provides large horsepower and torque gains.  The 41-1401C and 41-1401P are made to completely replace the Scion tC's restrictive factory intake system.  These cold air intakes connect at the engine throttle body and place the air filter at the driver side wheel well.  This ensures the delivery of cooler outside air to the engine.

The intakes both use an AEM DryFlow air filter, part 21-200DK. AEM's oil-free DRYFLOW air filter is extremely durable and easy to clean.

Designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit the 2008, 2009 and 2010 Scion tC, tests show these intakes increase power by 9 horsepower at 6400 rpm.  Installation is relatively simple and is accomplished using basic tools.  All AEM air intakes come with a limited lifetime warranty.

As dependable work trucks and even as everyday commuter vehicles, the "bigger and tougher" Silverado/Sierra trucks are often pushed to their limits. Whether you're towing a payload or hauling your family around, Chevrolet/GMC HD trucks can use the additional power and performance an AEM air intake system can provide. To fulfill the need for added performance, AEM Induction Systems has released two  Brute Force Air Intake Systems, part 21-8026DP with a polished finish and part 21-8026DC with a gunmetal gray finish for the 2007-08 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD equipped with the 6.0-liter V8 engine.

These Brute Force air intake systems are constructed from high-quality mandrel-bent aluminum inlet tubes with an AEM oil-free DRYFLOW performance air filter. Most AEM systems emphasize tuning of resonance properties to deliver higher airflow to the engine. The piping is routed in such a manner that the air filter can receive airflow from a safe and cool location. In addition to an engineered intake tube and air filter, these systems include a steel powder coated heat shield that protects the air filter from road dirt and restricts much of the engine heat from entering the air inlet tube.

The 21-8026DP and 21-8026DC utilize a large oil-free DRYFLOW performance air filter (21-2100DK). These air filters have a flange inside diameter of 6-inches (152mm), and a height of 8.125-inches (206mm), allowing them to deliver a generous amount of airflow to the 6.0-liter V8 engine of the Silverado and Sierra. The DRYFLOW air filter media creates a filter that is extremely durable, easily cleaned and delivers excellent filtration.  These air intakes come with a limited lifetime warranty.

Baja 1000 is Good Test for Camburg Engineering KINETIK/General Tires Trophy Truck

Camburg Engineering took 16th place in the Trophy Truck class in 26 hours and 30 minute

The Baja 1000 is arguably one of the most brutally demanding and unforgiving off-road races on the planet. It's run each fall on Mexico's, Baja California Peninsula. The first official race began in Tijuana, Baja California, on October 31, 1967, and was named the NORRA Mexican 1000 Rally. Every year since then, the event has grown more competitive, not only on the course, but first in the in the garage, where the difference between winning and even finishing, often depends on a single component choice.

With little time to spare, Jason Campbell and the Camburg Engineering crew were able to finish their new Trophy Truck and take it out on a maiden voyage only days before the race. They logged 50 miles at night to make sure all systems were operational and to get a quick feel for the truck. All things considered, the entire crew was very pleased with how that test run went.

Jason Campbell along with Jonathon Snelling, were the first team to drive. Unfortunately, Campbell experienced some unexpected physical difficulties and was only able to pilot the number 75 Trophy Truck to race mile 80, the team of Jerry Zaiden (driver) and John Duncan took over from there. The other alternate driver was Steve Myers from Myers Racing. Steve is very familiar with the San Felipe area and was the only Camburg team member to pre-run that section. This proved to be pivotal for the teams overall results.

The final team of Zaiden and Austin Farner completed the race. Jerry crossed the finish line 16th place in the Trophy Truck class, in 26 hours and 30 minutes. Factoring in an estimated seven or eight total hours of down time, and not having to put a single tool on the new truck the entire race, Team Camburg was extremely happy with their results.

"It's an awesome feeling to finally drive a truck that you've envisioned years ago and put into action, let alone to finish a Baja 1000 out of the box," said Campbell at the finish line.

"We more than met our goal. With only 50 miles of test time on our brand new truck, just finishing this race was our original goal. We had zero issues and never wrenched on the truck, our only down time was getting stuck for about 8 hours behind other people in bottlenecks," explains Zaiden. Zaiden's other duties include marketing, being race director and president of Camburg Racing.

"The AEM filters held up great. We only changed out one filter after the dry lake and silt beds. We did this only because we did not have any test time with this engine/filter combo in the silt. After inspection of the filter, there were zero issues and no signs of clogging, so we would have been fine continuing on for the rest of the race with the original filter."

"We plan on keeping everything the same for next year. The filter we ran worked flawlessly and gave us the advantage we needed over the competition," concludes Zaiden.

One downfall with the 2006 to 2011 Civic Si engine is the lack of power at lower RPM's. AEM has addressed this issue with the release of their Cold Air Intake Systems 21-685C and 21-685P. These intakes were specially designed to fit into the cramped engine compartment while delivering more horsepower. This is accomplished by using a custom aluminum intake tube that lowers restriction and an AEM air filter that is located away from the engine to provide cooler air to the engine.

AEM intake systems are dyno tuned and tested for specific applications. The 21-685C and 21-685P were dyno tested and showed an increase of 6.27 horsepower at 5100 rpm. The 21-685C intake system comes with a gunmetal gray intake tube and the 21-685P comes with a polished tube. Both intake systems utilize the oversized AEM DRYFLOW air filter (21-203DK). The 21-203DK is a washable oil-free air filter designed for high air flow and great filtration.

AEM cold air intakes come with detailed instructions to assist with the installation of the system. The Dyno Chart and vehicle applications for this intake are available on our website.
