Most car or truck enthusiasts picture a cold air intake system when they hear the name AEM. AEM Induction Systems has made great headway and built its reputation on cold air induction systems, but since 1987 Advanced Engine Management (AEM) has been in the business of improving performance. More power is only one aspect of the driving equation. Being able to properly control engine power in the Honda Civic and Civic Si is crucial to solving the performance formula..

AEM Performance Strut Tower Brace for the Honda Civic and Civic Si is protected with a durable powder coat finish for longevity and good looks

When a car equipped with a McPherson Strut suspension system, like the 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 Honda Civic or Civic Si, is being driven through a turn there is inherent flex in the strut towers and chassis. It’s not uncommon to experience as much as 1/8” of shift in the strut towers during hard cornering. This flex can result in unpredictable handling of the car. An effectively designed strut tower brace will transmit the load incurred by shifting weight between the two strut towers and reduce the effects of chassis flex.

Unfortunately, many of the aftermarket strut tower braces available have a hinged design and therefore offer little support to the strut towers. An effective strut tower brace, like those from AEM, must be rigid throughout its length. Additionally, many of the strut tower braces on the market could interfere with performance upgrades such as a cold air intake system. This is where AEM Induction Systems factors part number 29-0002 performance strut tower brace for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic and Civic Si into the equation.

AEM performance strut bars are an excellent bolt on solution to the issue of strut tower flex in the 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 Civic or Civic Si. AEM performance strut tower braces are constructed using thin wall mild steel tubing for a good strength to weight ratio. They are built with a rigid design to effectively tie the two strut towers together. Best of all AEM designed the 29-0002 performance strut bar with an AEM cold air intake system in mind. AEM performance strut tower braces will not interfere with the AEM cold air intake system for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic or Civic Si..

The AEM performance strut bar, number 29-0002, is designed as a bolt on suspension upgrade for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic or Civic Si and includes additional hardware if needed. The 29-0002 performance strut bar will work with the factory intake system and is guaranteed to work with an AEM Cold Air Intake System. As with an AEM cold air intake system, AEM performance strut bars are designed to last for the life of your vehicle. Constructed in the U.S.A with high quality mild steel, and protected with a durable powder coat finish, AEM warrants that its performance strut tower bars will last for the life of your vehicle.

AEM intake 21-8228DP and 21-8228DC use a huge Dryflow Air Filter when compared to the stock filter on the 2013 and 2014 Ram 1500 Hemi models

Ram Trucks separated from the Dodge brand in 2011 to become a stand-alone make. The Ram 1500 half ton pickup truck is rugged yet refined with advancements not found in any of its competitors’ trucks. The Ram 1500 offers a coil spring rear suspension to improve ride quality and handling without sacrificing payload capacity. Air suspension is an available option which offers automatic load leveling, lower suspension at highways speeds, and on-the-fly user adjustability. Also, the 2013 Ram 1500 was the first truck to offer keyless ignition in North America. Currently in its fourth generation of production, the Ram 1500 received minor changes for the 2013 model year. In response, AEM Induction Systems has developed a new Brute Force Air Intake System for the 2013 and 2014 Ram 1500 with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine.

AEM Brute Force Air Intake System for 2013 and 2014 Ram 1500 is available in charcoal gray, 21-8228DC, or a bright mirror finish, 21-8228DP

At AEM Induction Systems our engineers design our intake systems as a fully integrated component of the vehicle. Improved airflow is only part of the power equation. The 21-8228DC and 21-8228DP air intake systems feature an integrated heat shield to help deflect hot air from under the hood. Air then enters the relatively large and rugged AEM Dryflow air filter. The 21-2259DK Dryflow Air Filter is made with a special filtering media that exhibits a three-dimensional property which allows us to achieve high airflow and low restriction without compromising filtration efficiency or dirt holding capacity. Best of all, Dryflow Air Filter 21-2259DK is easy to wash and reuse with part number 1-1000 and does not require oil.

After clean air passes through the filter, a mandrel bent aluminum intake tube directs air into the engine. To satisfy personal preference AEM offers two durable finishes for the intake tube. 21-8228DC features a charcoal gray powdercoat finish, and 21-8228DP offers a bright, mirror-like finish. Coupling the aluminum intake tube to the throttle body is a molded bellows hose which absorbs vibration and engine flex during high-torque situations.

All of the design features of the 21-8228DC and 21-8228DP air intake systems are tuned to improve horsepower and torque delivery in the most used RPM range. On the dyno, 21-8228DC and 21-8228DP produced an estimated additional 10.2 horsepower at 5,100 rpm and an equally noticeable additional 10.5 pound-feet of torque at 5,100 rpm over the factory intake system. The added power offered by an AEM Brute Force Air Intake System helps improve acceleration, drivability, and towing performance.

The 21-8228DC and 21-8228DP AEM Air Intake System is an excellent performance upgrade for your 2013 or 2014 Ram 1500 with the 5.7L Hemi V8 engine. This is a complete air intake system including all the necessary hardware and step by step installation instructions.

AEM Air Intake System 21-8126DS is engineered with an oversized air box and new coolant reservoir for the 2011-14 Ford F150 EcoBoost turbo V6

The Ford Motor Company developed a line of smaller twin-turbo powered engines in the quest for more power and greater fuel efficiency. Beginning with the 2011 model year, Ford transplanted the 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 into the legendary F150 half-ton pickup truck line. This engine was previously found in front wheel drive applications such as the Ford Taurus, and Ford Explorer. The F150 was the first rear wheel drive implementation of the 3.5L EcoBoost engine. F150 power output for the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 is greatly increased over the Taurus or Explorer engines and rivals that of a V8 engine. In fact, the F150 EcoBoost is estimated to make 5 more horsepower and 40 lb-ft more torque than the renowned 5.0 V8.

AEM Brute Force Air Intake System 21-8126DS for 2011-14 Ford F150 EcoBoost 3.5-liter V6 twin turbo pickup trucks

A truck engine this advanced deserves an equally cutting-edge air intake system from AEM Induction Systems. The AEM 21-8126DS Brute Force Air Intake System utilizes a rotational-molded polyethylene enclosed air box and intake tube to reduce restriction and increase airflow to the engine. The enclosed air box helps to maintain near ambient inlet air temperature by retaining the use of the stock cold air inlet. Additionally, a second cold air source from behind the headlight was incorporated into the design of 21-8126DS. Both laboratory and road testing were completed to ensure the AEM Air Intake System will increase performance while staying within factory operating specifications. In addition to simply increasing horsepower, lowering restriction and increasing airflow will also reduce turbo lag and help the EcoBoost twin-turbos to spool up quicker. This in turn improves acceleration and drivability.

An added benefit of the enclosed air box used in AEM Air Intake System 21-8126DS is that the air filter is shielded from debris and water encountered in on-road as well as off-road environments. Plus AEM incorporates a Filter Minder into the design of 21-8126DS, which allows the user to visually monitor air filter maintenance intervals without opening the air box. Because the stock coolant reservoir is built into the restrictive stock air box a new coolant reservoir is provided with AEM 21-8126DS.

At the heart of AEM Air Intake System 21-8126DS is the relatively large and rugged AEM Dryflow Air filter, number 21-2288DK. This over-sized washable and reusable air filter is designed with AEM Dryflow synthetic air filter media. This special filtering media exhibits a three-dimensional property which allows us to achieve high airflow and low restriction without compromising high filtration levels or dirt holding capacity. AEM Dryflow air filters are simple to clean using air filter cleaner part number 1-1000 and do not require the use of oil.

All of the design features of the AEM 21-8126DS Air Intake System are tuned to improve horsepower and torque delivery in the most used RPM range. On the dyno, 21-8126DS demonstrates power gains throughout the RPM range with the largest gain of an estimated 14 additional horsepower coming on at 5,800 RPM.

AEM intake 21-728P and 21-728C incorporates an air scoop adapter to retain the Hyundai Genesis cold air intake inlet as engineered from the factory

The Hyundai Genesis Coupe broke the mold for what most people expect when they picture a sport compact import car. The Hyundai Genesis Coupe doesn’t fit with the typical front drive, small displacement Honda that tuners flocked to in the beginning of the sport compact movement. Nor is the Genesis Coupe in the all-wheel-drive, and expensive, Subaru WRX STi category. With over 270 horsepower from the factory, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe boasts 70 more horsepower than its closest competitor the Scion FR-S.

AEM Cold Air Intake 21-728C for 2013 and 2014 Hyundai Genesis Coupe with 2.0 liter engine is designed to provide improved power delivery in usable RPM ranges

The Theta 2.0 liter, 4-cylinder, Tci Turbo motor used in the Hyundai Genesis Coupe was part of a global joint engine manufacturing project. Because of this joint development process, the Genesis Coupe engine shares many components with the engine found in the Mitsubishi Evo X. AEM cold air intake 21-728C and 21-728P can help bridge that slight performance gap between the two cars and level the playing field.

At AEM Induction Systems our engineers design our intake systems as a fully integrated component of the vehicle. Improved airflow is only part of the power equation. 21-728C and 21-728P cold air intake systems feature an air scoop adaptor to help manage airflow and maintain Inlet Air Temperature (IAT) specs as intended by the factory. An integrated heat shield helps deflect warm ambient air from under the hood. From there, air enters the AEM Dryflow air filter, number 21-2047DK, which helps to enhance airflow while providing excellent filtration. Best of all, Dryflow Air Filter 21-2047DK does not require the use of oil. After clean air passes through the filter, a mandrel bent aluminum intake tube directs air into the engine. To satisfy personal preference AEM offers two durable finishes for the Genesis Coupe intake. 21-728C features a charcoal gray powdercoat finish, and 21-728P offers a bright, mirror-like finish.

All of the design features of the 21-728C and 21-728P cold air intake systems are tuned to improve horsepower and torque delivery in the lower, and most used, RPM range. On the dyno, 21-728C and 21-728P produced an estimated additional 12 horsepower at 2800 rpm and an impressive 23 pound-feet of torque at 2800 rpm over the factory intake system. While AEM 21-728C and 21-728P made an estimated additional 4 horsepower at peak over stock, we feel that increased power at ridiculously high RPMs will rarely be used. In addition to simply increasing horsepower, lowering restriction and increasing airflow will also reduce turbo lag and help the Hyundai Genesis Coupe turbo to spool up quicker. This in turn improves acceleration and drivability.

The 21-728C and 21-728P AEM cold air intake system is an excellent performance upgrade for your 2013 or 2014 Hyundai Genesis Coupe equipped with the 2.0 liter turbo engine. This is a complete air intake system including all the necessary hardware and step by step installation instructions. To provide peace of mind, AEM Induction Systems stands behind its products with a Lifetime Limited Warranty.

The 21-728C and 21-728P AEM cold air intake system will provide increased performance and excellent engine sound for the following vehicles:

2014 HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPE 2.0L
2013 HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPE 2.0L
