yes, but the only difference is AIRFLOW. more airflow better. that is why I made a dual intake (DINAN alike but with AFE).... the car is double aggressive.

Edited: Video of difference between single intake vs Double intakes (with AFE) http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=08OU_9N4U8c
I'm pretty sure DINAN is an enclosed intake...

After seeing AFE dealing with their customers in this manner, I say F-them...RPI has shown much more in customer service.
I agree 100%

Well, after owning both products, I can truly say that the RPI Scoops make a difference. Do I miss the sound of the AFE? Absolutely! Would I install it on the M and give up performance? Not on your life!

Nobody should argue with me. I'm always right.

BIG difference between Dinan and AFE. Dinan is enclosed.

True DINAN is enclosed.. I dont want spend $1000. so I just spent $70 for this. If the money is not a factor just go for DINAN.
