I have actually heard good things about the weapon R short ram for our car....heard it sounds mean and alot of people are happy with it...

I live in florida as well and i know how you feel, i have the injen CAI and you can hear the engine sucking in water when your driving haha (prolly not to good) so i was considering the weapon R intake for when it rains. I think i found it for $198.00....

Like my red NOS lines... LoL... Not to get off topic... Grounding wires don't do ****! ! !
i had that filter on my 05 maxima...not a bad filter. heard that foam is "better" for HP but it was the same ish lol.

I did the EXACT same thing when i had my pop-charger, after a long ride the filter felt much colder than the engine, so im sure this tube helps alot..

I think AEM did that style first. With the different chambers inside the intake arm. I wonder if that really makes a difference though. In theory, it should sound louder... or deeper. More volume = more air to vibrate to create deeper and louder sound. Much like a trumpet compared to a tuba.

intake mods are purely for sound imo and many members here will agree. i have the ztube + k&n drop in + power duct delete. the power duct delete made a gigantic difference in sound..and it was free. oem ztube 75 bucks and k&n drop in 40 bucks

its cheap. and it sounds great!

Why would you get a kinetix manifold with a NA engine?

Is the Z-tube just for sound or it actually improves performance?
Some people say yes but some say no....
