Default fuel filters

whats the difference between the OEM and an AEM one.
i was looking on theaccordstore and they have oem ones for $13 and $21bucs then the AEM for $120? and if this is something youre supposed to keep switchin out thats a lil pricey.

Maybe the AEM one you don't switch out? personally I would just use an inline one made by a reputable hot rod co. holley, MSD, to name a few

The AEM uses a replaceable FRAM filter element which cost about $3, your paying for the billet aluminum and the name.

I totally agree with you on that one dsm2nr. But you forgot to mention that you're also paying for the cool little sticker that comes with it.

the AEM one is just supposed to flow a lot more fuel. unless you're making like 500whp, OEM is fine....

get an oem, theres no reason you'd need a special fuel filter
