so ive narrowed my picks down to either the JWT combo
http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...roducts_id=114
or a motordyne spacer, Z tube, and K&N drop in.
What should I do if im mainly looking for a sound upgrade?

IMO, I would say to just get the car first, then drive it like it is for a while. Who knows, you might want to go a different route with it, performance, handling, sound system or you may want to leave it stock. Good luck with whatever you decide.

But thats the thing, I think you should DRIVE IT for a while first....THEN do the mods. If you start out with the mods, THAT is the only experience you are going to have in your G. So where do you go when you are use to that feeling?
Start out stock and enjoy. THEN when you are use to that feeling and need more, THATS when you should start doing the mods.
Trust me. I've been modding cars for years from turbo-charging to rebuilding engines. You are ALWAYS going to thirst for more power.
Trust me, you'll love it as is.
