Pop Charge vs Stillen Intake?
I think that's a valid point. But unfortunately most races don't start at 65mph

how much "hotair" am I sucking up more than you? For noise...... Injen all the way!!!! Had one before, went through puddles, drove in slush.......... never an issue. As for gains between them...... Nothing at all really. So how much hot air really gets sucked up since no performance is lost??? That being said, I'm a proud owner of JWT popcharger. To me the price differance was not worth the money for noise, but you might think so. Yeah there is looks too so it's really up to you. 
Good luck.

I have the JWT pop and a polished z-tube.
I dont think the jwt pulls much if any hot air, the heat shield has some rubber bits that fit up against the hood when its shut. It seals up against the hood. There is a little space behind the filter where air could get in but the amount of area in the front is much larger and the oem snorkel on the car feeds through the heat shield.
i really dont think heat soak is an issue on the JWT. Its very well made looks great. It also sounds good. I havent compared it to others but I like it.

stillen loses top end gains because their airbox is restrictive up top and open underneath, which serves to pull hot air from the engine compartment
at least that was the theory behind jwt leaving it open... dynos don't lie (or do they? hehe)

Riverside INfiniti has the pop and stillen i belive around 90$? Anyways if anyone has some imput it would be highly appreciated. I looked in teh search but could only find opinions on which they prefer but not much on what they do that is different i thought the pop was the intake?
