injen tube has less bends so at high RPM's when you want lots of air you get lots of air, but AEM doesnt flow air as well, so in lower RPM's it gives less air which is better at those rpm's

Short Ram doesn't get air from the more cold areas. Air at the wheelwell is much colder then air the SRI grabs.

More air is always good.

It's actually the type of sound waves created inside of the CAI, and how it circulates the air.
