*Intake Question*

I have been looking around for a bunch of intakes for my 04' g35x and I have seen two popular set ups and I dont know if they are the same because they look so similar. The first one I'm looking at is the JWT Pop charger w/ the z-tube, which I hear is really loud! The next one I came across was the package designed by Stillen which includes the z-tube and there cold air intake. I wanted to know which one is better and worth getting. Keep in mind I want something really loud underneath my hood that gives an upgrade in performance.
Thanks.

both intakes sound great. i like the stillen cause it looks stock.

Great for looks and sound. Lose power down low, but gain some near the top end. I had Injen on my 03 sedan. Went with Z-tube/Popcharger combo on my 05 coupe. Not as loud, but maintains low end power. Easier to maintain as well.

I'm trying to go for a hybrid of looks and performance with my set-up. I'm getting a UTR Chrome Z-tube for bling and the Stillen intake for sound/performance. I figure it's the best of both worlds. You get the great looks of a CAI while retaining the low-end power and hydrolock safety of a stock style box.
