thinkin about getting an intake, really like the aem cold air intake, and the stillen z tube. i don't know if its a good cominbation. does anyone know of any better combinations? please help

 

Stillen/Z-tube or pop charger/z-tube or Injen CAI

Stillen FTMFW

PLZ LEARN TO SEARCH...

 

you cannot combine an aem intake and a z tube.

 

correct...

 

was not a questions...just confused about the op's original request.

 

i have yet to see a dyno chart that shows any gains from a cai. the z tube doesn't enhance performance either. throw a k&n panel filter in your stock airbox, keep it clean, and save your money for a spacer.

 

^true. more for sound and looks.

 

iv heard that stillen/z-tube and MD Spacer work well with each other... hp/tq gains but really dont know

o i c

 

not really looking for speed, theres no time in the future where i plan on reaching 130 mph. and plus a relative just got into a fatal accident, had a 1999 m coupe. just really looking for sound. do the stillen cai and z tube help out more with speed and hp or are they more for looks and sound ?

 

get the stillen ztube combo...i love it

 

the z-tube/pop charger set up is pretty loud. i like the sound but i dislike what seems like a loss in low end response.

 

yes its for more looks and sounds

 

like i've been told a million times, search. i have searched and searched about this topic, but its basically people saying, ztube and stillen sound great, or ztube and pop charger sound great, its so confusing !

 

The problem when it comes to intake and exhaust choices is that sound is very very subjective and what might sound "great" to one person, may sound not so great or even raspy to others. You're best bet is to try and find someone locally with the setup(s) u r interested in and then make an informed purchase.

 

not confusing. stillen airbox and pop charger are two different kinds of intakes. both sit in the engine bay--stillen has a box around it like a factory airbox and the pop charger is basically a cone filter/sometimes with a heatshield around it.

ztube is the part going from the intake into the throttle body.
