Carbon fiber vs plastic vs titanium intake
Right now I have the Z tube which is basically made out of plastic.
For cosmetic purposes I plan on getting the CF z tube (approx $90) vs Amuse Titan Tube for US$494.

Will the titanium reduce performance/power over the plastic or CF tube?
Thanks,
Clint

$440- hmm ok let's go for it
Unless you are going to dress up the rest of the engine bay, the Amuse intake will be overkill. Get a JDM battery cover first.
Metal conducts heat a lot better than CF or plastic, so performance wise, the metal intake may increase your air intake temperature.

On order - Amuse intake, JDM Battery cover, CF engine cover.
I already have the ebay CF overlays ready to be installed.
After installing the above, I will be painting my richie bar and Infiniti logo (which goes on the CF engine cover) gold

That's a lot of money for a tube, there's no other way to look at it. IMO, if you're spending money for look over function, spend it where people can see it..or get a clear hood..haha. It looks nice though..
