im confused what does the z tube due and the pop charger, and y the 06 05 is hotter

im confused what does the z tube do and the pop charger, and can you you use the k and n filter with that?



and y the 06, the 05 is hotter, to be honest those tail lightights are not really nice looking at all, and the spoiler is terrible, so o5 had the best changes for the coupe new interior more hp, and kept the same goodies. the only cool thing is the rear active steering but on this type of car, it will probabaly break because only really expensive cars should have this. not 30 to 40 thousand dollar cars. si i vote o5 all the way, and those projectors, i like the older ones, you get a broader area of light, and whata the point of a projector if it doesnt move? i know all you guys feel the same way wanted to clarify!

ok I have a headache. But to comment: I do not like the rear spoiler on the 06. Now the rear active steering............. what makes you think it will break just because it is on a car that cost 30-40 thousand dollars. What kills me is why you think it would not break on a car that cost twice as much. Confused......................

think about it like this, how good could it be on this car, when they add, this feature ussualy costs about 7 grand on a 850 ci bmw ten years ago, and it worked mint how today when things are much more expensive are they going to make it work well with out breaking for a quarter of that.

The intake will give you marginal gains in power, and a little roar at high rpms. The Z-tube straightens out the intake charge and smooths the airflow.
The pop charger will allow warm/hot air into the intake unless you seal off the heat from the engine.
On my VQ, I liked the Ztube, along with OEM or K&N panel filter with stock intake.

From what I understand, the rear active steering now available on the G is the identical unit that I have on my M-45, and I would not expect either to break any time soon......

The projector type headlight beams are supposed to be better for projecting a beam of light into a more useful area rather than scattering and losing much of the non projected light.
Having the active lighting is even better yet, but not necessary for better lighting.
