If all you care about is sound then by all means get em. Short ram intake usually decreases HP because of the warm air. But they make up for that by increasing air flow.

IMO, dont! Anyone who looks under your hood who knows cars will think its cheap and you drive a G35, not a honda civic....do it RIGHT! If all you wanted was sound, stick with a ricer. If you want performance, dont go cheap on your G.

But intakes on our cars only ARE for sound

Dude. . .you own a G35. . .don't be so cheap. Get a z-tube and pop charger from our sponsors here or check the classifieds.

Don't get a no-name ebay filter if you care about your engine, who knows if it even filters?!?

PM Jason at Riverside for an OEM z-tube. I ordered lots of stuff from him several weeks ago and he took care of me real fast. Top notch service. Your G is a $35k+ car. MIght as well get good products that will improve your cars performance instead of cheapen it.
