I got one...

It sounds great.

It FEELS more responsive, but that might just be my head.

It's a good sound mod for sure though.

I have it as well. It has been on for around 65K miles. When I clean the cone filter, I replace the Stillen box with the OEM one and leave it on for about 1 week. (I let the wet oiled filter drain and dry) Boy do I miss the sound while it is sitting in my garage. One thing I have noticed, my gas mileage gets REALLY bad with the stock box on. I can't figure it out.... The car actually seems to pull harder with the OEM box, and I find my foot buried into the pedal all the time when the stock box is on......leading me to believe the OEM box is actually better.

On my 2005 G35x, installing just the Z tube made for a dramatic change in terms of intake noise.
Then I installed the Z tube on my stock 2006 G6mt coupe. Honestly, there was little if any difference in the intake volume stock vs. Z tube.

Now, I just installed the Stillen CAI on my car which already has the Stillen TD Exhaust and Z tube. Great move. Can hear a difference, and it matches the exhaust perfectly. Not sure about any increase in power, though it seems to wake up the engine, if only slightly And it's not an over the top bogging sound (i.e. purple Honda Civic with two tier wing).
These cars can sound decent, Stillen has proved that.
