The 2012 AEM SEMA booth displayed the latest products such as strut bars and exhaust kits

AEM Induction made a grand display recently at the 2012 SEMA show in Las Vegas, Nevada. As one of the leading aftermarket performance air intake and air filter manufacturers in the industry, AEM Induction’s booth was a showcase for new product lines and one of the hottest Scion FR-S models on the strip.

"The SEMA show this year is a great experience," reported Katie Thomason, an AEM product specialist. "So many people at the show are really excited to see the new product lines that AEM is coming out with, like the exhaust systems and strut bars for the 2013 Scion FR-S. This is my second time at the SEMA show and being here representing AEM Induction, as well as being with our custom FR-S is something that I have really been looking forward to all year."

Katie walked through some of the new product lines offered from AEM Induction including

high performance strut bars, AEM stealth exhaust systems, and complete intercooler systems with charge pipes. "Many of the new product lines are designed for applications that can really benefit from high quality performance parts, like the 2012 Mitsubishi Evolution X, Hyundai Genesis Coupe, or the Scion FR-S and Subaru BR-Z."

AEM strut bars help to correctly stabilize the tops of the struts by tying them together using 1-1/2" steel tubing. This extra strong, but low weight strut bar can also reduce noise vibration, which is crucial for getting the best handling both on and off the track, which is perfect for controlling strut tower tops and camber settings. "When you’re pushing hard, the last thing you want is the vehicle to handle unpredictably," said Katie. "Stabilizing the suspension is important for consistent handling and many other bars have a hinged design and offer less support than a solid bolt-on design like AEM."

AEM didn’t spare on the tech details when showing off their stealth exhaust systems designed for select years of the Kia Soul, Honda CR-Z, Hyundai Genesis Coupe and the Scion FR-S/ Subaru BR-Z.

AEM has been manufacturing intake systems to produce horsepower gains for more than 15 years

Designed to meet strict OEM standards, AEM stealth exhausts are constructed out of durable stainless steel. They have clean understated tips and create a sporty sound without the annoying drone prevalent in many aftermarket exhaust systems. "These systems are also street legal in all 50 states for certain vehicles and come with a sound test report to verify compliance with any local sound regulations," reported Katie.

"If you have a 2010-2012 Evo X or Genesis Coupe with a 2.0 liter engine, then you are definitely going to want to install AEM’s intercooler system," stated Katie.

The show vehicle in the AEM SEMA booth started out as a new 2013 Scion FRS

Designed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), AEM intercoolers are a perfect modification for more power and performance.

With all these new products for some of the most popular vehicles to hit the streets, AEM has really stepped up to the plate to meet the market’s need for more innovative performance mods. AEM continues to stick with its core lines of high quality intake systems and replacement Dryflow air filters. Be sure to keep your eye out for new innovative designs and increased horsepower gains produced for late model vehicles in the near future.

The 2.0L boxer engine fits nicely into the FRS
