ME TOO!!
I was looking for a way to compensate for the loss of power at 6,000 ft elevation.....So I did the same, z-tube and a Stillen air box......
Power restored, and a smoother power delivery??? It doesn't seem to have the powerband it used to... like it improved mid-range power so that it makes a smoother transition into the upper rpm range....It doesn't "hit" the powerband as it did before....
And it sounds fantastic....
I don't know how much is the z-tube and how much is the airbox because I changed them at the same time,,,but I know it works.

Def stillen airbox is better for the car. sound wise i think stillen's better. i remember i heard a coupe with a pop charger and it sounded weird to me. maybe it wasnt installed right? But i def like the stillen airbox and z-tube combo. sounds and feels so much better!

pop charger will make a different sound since it pulls air from the top and side and the stillen only pulls from the side...ive combine before the stillen box with a pop charger filter...

This may be a stupid question, but what does this do to the warranty, or is that more dealer specific? I know on my Acura CL-S the results were well worth the money for an intake, but the dealer claimed they would only honor the warranty if "Comptech" parts were used.

Always keep stock parts... if you have warranty issues take off after market, replace OEM and take to dealer.

But it the case of CAI - it's not going to harm anything... so don’t worry about warranty issues.
