CAI vs SR... which to get...

So I've been asking around and trying to decide between CAI and the JWT Pop Charger...

it seems like the performance difference is minimal... so unless someone has some links to some dyno'd differences, i think the only thing left is price and sound... correct me if im wrong and throw me your .02

my choices are

AEM CAI $260
Injen CAI $280
JWT Pop Charger w/o tube $120 (just brackets, intake, heatshield, adapter)
JWT Pop Charger w/ tube combo $190 (supposed 6hp more than w/o tube)

you're going to get a lot of OPINIONS on this.

this debate has been ongoing for years and it will never end.

the jwt intake is going to be the loudest. the injen sounds nice, too. never heard the aem, though.

why isn't stillen one of your choices?

if you opt for stillen or jwt, you should definitely get the ztube...

heh, yeah i kinda noticed when i asked on my350z
i only brought up jwt bc that was the first suggested by a couple people

by loudest, do you mean a nicer loud than injen or just bleh loud

yeah, i am leaning toward the jwt w/ ztube from mynismo, only 190 vs 290 for injen cai

If you want a better looking JWT, get the Stillen SR. Same thing with a nicer black plastic heat shield.

Get whatever one you see in the For sale area at the best price. They all do the same thing. I'd NEVER buy one brand new.
