hey guys,
i recently got myself an 07' journey packaged DG coupe and i wanted to know which do you guys prefer having for the G? seeing that they cost just about the same. hmmm...the jwt pop charger with Z tube or the fujita?
thx sincerely, s3xyDG<3

 

What do you intend to do with your car? If you're looking for purely sound, then the pop charger really roars. If you're looking for performance, save yourself the money and keep it stock (slap in a z tube at most).

 

whycome? does any intake rob you of hp? i thot it would help if anything? i was lookinf for sound AND a lil more HP haha

 

The jwt pop charger has a less than efficient heat shield. If I can recall correctly, the Fujita intake doesn't even come with a heat shield. Do you really want your car sucking in all that hot air?

If you must go after market, then the Stillen airbox would be superior IMO.

But ****** a z-tube, drop in an Amsoil filter, and call it a day. This will increase induction noise and maintain performance.

 

Cal you're pretty helpful today

BTW i'd go with the JWT w/ z-tube, after reading on the site for a while you'll see that intakes dont do much for our cars.

 

^^+1^^ I got the Z tube and KN drop filter, works great and sound mean!

 

That's because I'd rather help than study for finals.

 

Oh shiet, you just reminded me about finals. FTL

 

hmm jwt robs u of HP huh?..well, i definetly wouldnt want that. i think i'll go with calvin and get the Z tube and the stillen airbox. im not tryin to do anything crazy with my baby...just yet! haha...good luck with finals guys!

 

No horsepower was lost when I added my popcharger.

 

^ try doing a before and after dyno at over 80 degree outside.

 

I concur

Agreed. If you thought heat soak was bad in hot days with the stock airbox, I can't even imagine the JWT

.

 

Most HP gain is from the Z-Tube mod, weither it is a OEM Z-Tube or a STILLEN Z-Tube... This will give you 4-7HP

The air box replacement will add 2-4 HP at most but mainly will add more sound...

Cold air intakes on this car tend to not make as much HP especially once heat soaked...

If you want to do a full intake, the best performing one will be the stillen air box w/ z-tube combo

 

The Injen is a CAI so theres a usable gain from it right?? Website shows a peak dyno of around 8-9whp and 6-7ftlb and a rough gain of about 6lbft and 3whp throughout the powerband. Its an import so low is to be expected.

I was planning on it as my first mod.

Give me a totally stock car and a day with it on the dyno and I will get you dyno numbers running between 1HP and 10HP gain with no modifications...

There is no industry standard or regulation on those dyno numbers that company's put out...

If you would like, I can guide you to ebay and find a chip that gains 40HP from putting a magnet over your fuel line... Because its "dynoed" people believe it...

Best thing to do is get dyno results from independant dyno's, but even those are not going to be 100% accurate...

if you look at the build of the products, the injen intake has a metal tube that WILL heat soak... once you sit in ntraffit for 5 minutes that thing get hot, heat kills horse power, = less gain / even loss over the stock parts!
