im new to modding but have general knowledge. what exactly would an osiris tune do and should i get a MREV? or just a 5/16 plenum spacer?

sorry for the questions...is the injen intake worth it? or should i go for a pop charger/ztube?

Adman, any time you install breather mods on your G disconnect the negative side of your battery while doing so....no more than an hour this allows your ECU to relearn. When you ask questions like you did we need way more information than we have to give you correct answers. Not all G35s need the MREV2 lower manifolds so if we knew what year and trans you have it would help. You really should read all the stickys above and try using our SEARCH function, that's where all the answers to your questions are...."It's your friend!"

No offense Adam but most members on here don't take it lightly if you ask questions without doing some research. Its a pain because there are literally thousands of threads like this already. Also if you are asking questions about a mod, be more specific about what mods you currently have. For example, in the near future if you ask about rolling your fenders(God forbid someone ask this again) before we can answer we need to know your current setup/are you dropped/offsets before we give advice. It's not as simple as "ask" then "answer". What's worse is that this thread was your first post. Which means you didn't take the time to view the stickies and other threads and ask questions there, as Gary kind of mentioned.

Thanks very much. I have been searching for 3 hours now. I just want one simple answer and forget all the other option I asked sorry.

Would an injen long CAI or a z-tube+pop charger combo be better....I am looking for good sound with some performance gains but no performance loss.

intakes on g35c dont really do anything for performance, mostly for sound.

Adman, regardless of what manufactures claim there are no gains with any intake. In fact at lower RPMs you'll lose HP! Buy a Z-Tube and install a K&N intake filter that's all you need! All the intakes on the market with metal tubing (pop chargers) will cause you to lose 30% HP when they get hot....fact! Get the Z-Tube and K&N filter, no loss and a better sound....Gary

Thanks for the info!! I understand the great frustration of thousands of people asking the same question. Im currently am stock, and am looking for the answer to my intake question (which you have answered) and other low budget mods that will make a noticeable different in torque and HP

Some times you dont even need to search within g35driver to find answers for questions. I rarely do.

Most of the time I use google and ud be suprised how much more info u can get from different forums all at once instead of limiting urself to just g35driver.

Sometimes I even look to my350z for answers. Not because theres anything wrong with g35driver, its a great community. But its just a lot more ppl own 350z and the forums there are more active. This alone will get u more answers that u are looking for
