I'm thinking of buying a cold air intake, but I have heard so many different people tell me different things. Which brand do you have and do you like it over other brands? Someone told me that a Ztube and a K&N air filter is good (but is it better than a real cold air intake?) Is AEM good or Injen or another brand? Also, are there any other mods that are worth getting before others. (I'm not looking to spend tons of money at the moment, but maybe for future)

Thanks

 

1. MD spacer 5/16
2. Z-tube+K&N filter

 

Please use the search feature. This topic and been beaten to death....It doesnt really make a difference which one you get. Ztube with a pop charger works great from what I hear like I said just read up on what they do by searching the site to find out which intake will fit your needs and budget.

 

hey is all good man give the guy some credit for posting up the thread ... he ask a simple question give him a simple answer simple as that

 

get a ztube with a jwt popcharger. the popcharger is just the filter part not the whole system.


it will make your engine sound alotdeeper.

sooo

get a ztube and a jwt popcharger..order a popcharger from a vender in our forums

MD 5/16 Spacer

stillen/z-tube


pop charger/z-tube

z-tube on the left g-tube on the right


i say go with pop charger/ztube with the stillen heat shield and the MD Spacer

 

Sorry about the post since it's already been asked so many times. I'm new to the forum so I hadn't had the chance to search for it and thought it would be faster to make a new post.

Someone offered to trade a ztube + K&N filter for my stock intake. Is the popcharger a better filter than the K&N?

 

no filter

 

JWT popcharger & Z-tube. No CAI. In my opinion they have the same gain, the popcharger is just cheaper!

 

It also has a very poor heat shield.

 

very true... if you get the pop charger... i say spend the money and buy the stillen for the heat shield

 

None of them will give you any noticable gains, so go with the one that sounds/looks the best to you.

 

ARC HAHAH...if you want to bling and be JDM... but if not use the z-tube and jwt pop-charger combo...if you want to go CAI go with injen...thats what i went with...my 2 cents

 

Well I like the look of the silver on most of the CAIs. I know it doesn't have much, but do any of the CAI or ztube w/ popcharger have any increase in MPG? If they have no real noticeable gain, I'd rather go with the better-looking injen or AEM CAI to show off :P
