Ok guys. BIG dilemma, well, not that big, but big for me.
i want to get a CAI(cold air intake) for my 6MT Sedan and dont know which one is best.
so far ive seen the injen, K&N, and 2 types of stillens. Personally, i like the way the stillen that gets air from right under the hook with that black box instead of the normal tube and filter types.
please help guys.

 

The Injen is descent ive heard people having problems with it. As far as the two stillens. One was discontinued a while ago. The only stillen taht is for real is the high flow airbox. i own that one and i love it, the car responds well to it and its fairly cheap. 11 horses and 8 foot pounds check it out at stillen.com

 

I would wait for the K&N.. there is another thread called K&N FAI on the Sedan General... take a peak there..

Hi Dabearz454,

I went to Stillens site and it appears that the Box and the ring within it are pretty much the whole kit...their doesn't seem to be the nice chromed tubing that leads up to the throttle body or did I miss something...course hp is hp last time I checked I didn't have a see through hood :-)

woohoo! might get a K&N for free. muahahaaa. muahahaaa. if i do, ill be sure to report back with results, pricing for the rest of ya, etc. that thing looks bad *** though. kinda like the ice-man CAI's. or maybe its just cause it wasnt polished yet.

 

Do you think gettin a K&N Typhoon Cold Air Intake is worth it for a 05 g35x??

 

Injen makes a good cai for the g35. Has a decent power gain and also sounds good when you press the throttle.

 

Injen CAI = crap

Stillen airbox is actually one of the best designs.

Blitz SUS power + Tube is the best.

 

WOW, u guys brought back an ooooold thread. lemme tell u what ive learned since this post was put up...back in 03. hahahaa

Best: Z-tube + K&N Panel filter
or
Z-tube + Stillen intake box

 

i didnt notice this is an old thread

all the ricer here still think Injen crap is better then Z-tube + KN filter

 

Injen in my opinion makes the best intake, it sounds awesome, not ricey at all............

 

Sounds awesome but doesn't perform awesome. Stillen is the best Intake.

But for cheap, get K&N panel filter and Z-Tube and you will be fine.

 

sounds awesome and performs awesome for me...........1-2 horsepower, at the most, makes no diffrence

 

Thinking of getting one for the 2004 G35x Wish one is the Best the Stillen or the Ricer Injen..

 

i have a 2004 x also, and i would say get the Injen, ive had mine on since last november, driven through rain and snow and had NO problems...........but IMO go w/ Injen
