No worries, glad to help. You've got a 6MT right? If not the MREV2 doesn't make much power on the non-revup motor.

I'm confused as to why it's looks has to do with anything I'm asking about sound/performance. I've only seen pictures and 1-2 videos of the Stillen intake online, hence the reason I was asking.

...thanks for the help I guess?

Alright so I REALLY want to get some nice 20 inchers for my black 04 coupe. I don't know whether its consider a mod or not but I don't use this site much so I had no idea where else to ask. I don't wanna spend a ton of money but I don't wanna get really crappy rims either.. Somewhere inbetween. You guys got any suggestions?

That's a very subjective question that you're asking. Hop on Google or something and figure out what you think looks good because not everyone has the same taste when it comes to mods. If you're looking at getting 20s then plan on spending some money for tires alone. And again it is very subjective; rims that I like may not be rims that you like. Another possible question that you might want to consider is "where can I get 20" rims for cheap?" And consider that a higher price doesn't necessarily equal a better quality rim. You can get the same ugly rims as many people here on Driver get from a company called Vossen, but please don't.

Thanks. What I really should of asked was what are good companies too look at when I'm looking into buying rims?

LOL no I don't. Even though I personally want to pick up some Meisters this Spring which are rims that I've seen a lot of as well, I want them because I've wanted them since my drifter kid days nearly a decade ago. That's my reasoning. As for Vossens, they appear to be heavily associated with the G35 community for some reason as if it's one of the common basic mods like a z-tube and plenum spacer.

Obviously I'm aware that they're popular, however I don't understand why they are. Many people on here and on some of the FB G groups seem to love them. I wouldn't have pointed it out unless I had a reason. Anyway your style is your style whether it's distasteful or not. It's your money. I was just suggesting something to not do for the guy who asked.
