my lude has been in my sig for a month or so lol i'm not sure if im going to do any body mods to it but CF trunk and hood. lip kits look nice and all but i have a habit of pulling up to the curb alittle bit too far. and if you cant tell, i have no life today with the quick responses lol

will do man, i am currently still changing all my interior bulbs (just need to know what the shifter lightbulb size is and thats it), then probably the short ram intake, then maybe the rota rims and not sure on what tires. thanks to Irish Luder for her help and advice with the Rota rims.

how do you like that iPod hook up right on the head unit? I have an Alpine head unit that hooks up to my iPod too and I love it! No more CDs! Good choice on the exhaust, hope you get started soon and start modding that thing.

Check out the lude

i love it man, i had one in my eclipse for my poineer headunit and i needed on in my lude. i'm in the process of modding and was about to buy my intake about 5 mins ago before i'm curious if the AEM V2 is short ram or cold air? if anyone could answer me, i'd appricate it. but on a good note, i just ordered the rest of my bulbs ^_^

I am pretty sure all AEM V2 intakes are short. From the research I did when I ordered mine about a year ago all I found were short V2's, but someone else might want to confirm that.

it looks like its in between, its a short ram then i'll probably get it cause i dont want to risk getting a CAI since Jersey gets a decent amount of rain. if someone can verify to me that it stays in the engine bay then i'll be buying it by tomorrow night

yeah mine is pretty long compared to other regular short ram intakes. but it sits right in the engine bay. I wish I could tell you 100% that all V2 intakes are short but im only like 90% sure :( Here is it in my engine bay, its long, but still sits all in the engine bay.

all V2's are short ram.

don't worry about CAI's and hydrolock. i've had my AEM CAI for 5 years now (1 on the accord, 3 on the N/A prelude motors, plus its been my turbo intake as well) with NO bypass valve, daily driven, jersey roads, even take my car snowboarding, with no problems at all. don't worry about it, just don't drive like a dumbass aiming for lakes and rivers.


btw where in jerz??

the oil pan is still sitting in my spare bedroom. the holes didnt line up, it wasnt made of the same metal, and the oil pan on my lude was fine (my buddy peeled off the silicon and found no crack, idoits at monro tried dicking me over). not building an engine, yet lol id like to have a house before i did that.

V2 are short ram. a buddy of mine used to have a cold air and it doesn't sit in the engine bay. his piping went down further. he had to cut a bigger hole to put the piping through

Looks good can't wait to see it as it goes.

ya i always revese into spaces so curbs don't really bother me, speed bumps and ramps are what bother me lol but your welcome for the the help, our cars will be like sisters soon

yes our cars will be sisters soon lol id back up into spaces but alot of the times im in a rush or just too lazy. I havent hit a curb in awhile so i'm not sure if i'm going to do a lip kit. I'm not really into modding the body but i do like the look of lip kits, growing on to me. We'll see down the road before it goes into get painted. Thanks ATTBMLude1998, i'm definately going to keep this updated it and i'll get new pics after i install the window visors and V2 i'm ordering today at lunch
