Ok I know has been tons of research but I'd like to hear from users with experience in the following:

R2C, Injen CAI (longer tube), and Stillen CAI (long tube). Also if Fujita if it's an option, I don't care about sound at all, but performance is what I'm looking for the best all around model. I'm open to ideas and don't want to spend more then ~$550.

Thanks for your help guys! BTW it's going on a 2007 G35 Sedan.

Cheers.

 

I just ordered the Injen SRI.
I like the fact that it comes with the dry Amsoil EA air filters, which can be cleaned and reused (4 yr, 25K Mile warranty). I didn't want the oil based filters, for several reasons.
It also includes heat shields which seal to the hood nicely and the filters are supplied air from the existing air ducts in the front end. The guys over at MyG37 are very happy with them, and for $309-, you definitely cannot go wrong.

If it wasn't for the price, my second choice would most likely have been the R2C's, although I still love the Injen and Stillen Gen 3. Both look damn cool.

 

Thanks and yeah the Stillen G3 and Injen concern from washing the car or rain getting sucked up. The R2C's seem pretty legit though, let me know how the Injen SRI come out and what you think.

R2C IMO are one of the best intakes out there for the G, it offers complete tubing for looks, sound and gains as it rids of all resonators and plastic tubing constraints.

The power gains have been very noticeable from the famous butt-dyno over 4k with no loss what so ever in the low range and the dyno on their site proves it, also the company is pretty stand up about all their gains and testing. Also the sound over 4k is incredible while being civil under 3k.

Also the heat sheilds are probably the best out there as it is one piece all round protection without any voids to let hot engine air in unlike the injen SRI which has a slit on the passenger side for power steering bottle.

The fit and finish NOW is perfect(they fixed the hose issue), also they have the best filters in the market where the avoid cotton based elements and provide a great dry filter which is easily cleanable with air and is rated best amongst all other filters out there, also all supporting data to my claims can be found on their website with testing graphs and logs

Also do check out the review with videos by Red on myg37.com

I do suggest you talk to Ed over @ R2C if you're interested in these intakes and he can give you all the details i might have missed out on to help you make a good decision.

I ordered the Injen SRI's yesterday. for 300 bux i thought it was a good deal. Will let you know how they are when i get them.

 

R2C is probably the best choice if you aren't going for a proper CAI like the Injens or Stillen Gen3.
As kool said, they have one of the industry's leading filter/heat shield systems and they look good too.
For the price, Injen SRI is a good buy too.

 

True - but the stillen G3 is only $50 more than the R2C, is CAI the better option?

 

well if you are looking purely for performance go for either of the CAI.

 

Very happy with my decision to go with R2C. Long wait, but worth it.

No apparent performance or sound differences to about 4K then the sound, at least, increases exponentially as you go up. Love the sound and my butt dyno says a slight increase in high end power. Does not seem to have lost any low end.

The look, filter technology and fantastic heat shielding tipped the scales from the other SRI's. I am very pleased with how this intake and my FI cat-back have worked together.

The Stillen G3 was my next choice, but I really didn't feel like having to modify the car at all, plus the slight risk of hydrolock.

 

You guys suck... can't a guy just choose something and live happily ever after?
I liked the $309- price on the Injen, the guys over on G37 report minor gains but NO LOSS and it seems to have that lovely Injen sound.
My hope was the intake, paired with my exhaust and BullyDog would show better gains than others reported.
Now you have me second guessing.

I love this place.

 

WOW that R2C looks SICK! HAHAH - yeah I know AV, I wish I could just pull the trigger on one of them. I'm leaning towards the R2C.

As for modification on the Stillen G3, it's only the intake scoops behind the grill unless I'm mistaken so the long tubes can fit through.

 

With the Gen 3, the filters are right there behind the grill, with a little plastic guard in front of them.
