Tuning Report, Thursday October 4th:
Had an enjoyable tuning session with a chap from QLD in his 4B11-5MT Lancer. He has fitted his car with an AEM intake system, one I have never tuned before. As some of you will know I am generally not a fan of of aftermarket "cold air intakes" as they seldom do anything useful and generally screw up the airflow measurement, resulting in a generally lean WOT fueling error.
This AEM system seems to be the exception and I have to say worked very well. Combined with a set of headers and a hi-flow CAT the tuned engine response was very good, resulting in a lack of traction in 1st and 2nd gears and brilliant NA acceleration. Happy tuner, happy client.
AEM part number 21-778C

Would you say that the AEM CAI system is better than the stock air intake system on the 2015 4B11?

Re: Merlin TUNING REPORT
This particular car achieved higher engine load figures than the stock setup typically achieves, so possibly yes.
It did have a better exhaust system so that is a contributing factor too.
It certainly did not cause any negative effects, however I think the filter could be replaced with a larger unit.
It would attract unwanted attention from the plod though.
