your on the right track. it all sounds good to me. i had the z tube and pop charger combo, its good but if you can get the CAI why not. maibe even the INJEN its both a CAI and can also be changed to short ram.

the INJEN can be converted from cold air witch goes down by the lower grill too a short ram that is exactly like a Z tube pop-charger combo, you do this by takeing off the long tube that takes the filter down, and connecting the air filter to the shorter tube.

You will get better results from the Stillen CAI with the Ztube. Check out stillen.com for the whole kit. The injen is not as powerful on the low end and high end.

if you want the truth youll never find the RIGHT answer on the forum. everyone has their experiences. at the end it will be up to you. ive heard many good things about the Stillen CAI too. whatever you get i hope you enjoy it. just do your research and watch out for the AC line. if you dont know about the AC line problem, please search it before you install the intake.

Drop a K&N Filter and you're good. Those intakes are worthless.
