Help me please any ideas?

Well first of I’m a girl so I’m not as mechanically inclined as most of your guys are but I do know my way around the car. I have a 03 G Coupe and I was wondering, what is the best intake I can get for it? I have read all the trends and still can't figure out what I want... I don't really need more power but it would be nice... just a meaner sound. Any ideas of what I can do?

everyone will tell you to search, but personally, i think the OEM Z tube and JWT pop charger is the way to go.

i would say a oem z tube and pop charger and a 5/16 spacer sounds good and will give you somemore power.

+1...I just got mine 2 days ago. Check the marketplace for a used pop charger/ z tube. You can find some good deals.

In the interim, if you want more aggressive sound, some have removed their 'Power Duct' and say it sounds better.

The biggest increase in sound will come from the pop charger. If you then add a 1/2" spacer to it, the sound will become substantially more than the stock sound.

The combination of the two is not subtle at all.

If a Z tube is also used, the sound level begins to approach the definition of "Loud".

At least thats my opinion on it.
