"Stillen Z-Tube" - Is it any different than OEM Z-Tube?

Just came across the "Stillen Z-Tube". Im wondering if any of you G35 coupe owners have any feedback or comments about this "Stillen Z-Tube".

To be honest with you, I dont trust it. I called them today and they claim it is "less restrictive and performs better than the OEM (stock) Z-Tube". It's also the same diameter in width.

Also, does this Stillen Z-tube sound the same as the OEM(Stock) Z-Tube?




I couldnt actually find an answer using the search engine.

I think it also curves a little bit in order to avoid rubbing the AC line, but don't quote me on that
