JWT Popcharger & Ztube ?

Wait, is it possible to get both of these at the same time? I thought the JWT popcharger is a form of an intake? But I've read someone has both on their car..This is possible? If it is, it's just a basic increase in sound of your engine, or does it boost any sort of performance if I added the JWT popcharge, ztube and K & N filter? The description of the popcharger says an increase of 6.5hp at the wheels, which I find hard to believe.

The Z-Tube is the OEM Nissan 350Z intake pipe from the throttle body to the MAS/air box. This alone will yield a bit more noise since it has less resonators.

The PopCharger is a cone style air filter. It also comes with a heat shield and replaces the stock airbox. This will give you alot more intake sound, especially at higher RPM's.

If you ran a Popcharger, you wouldn't run a K&N filter.

As for performance, you will not see any performance gains in the real world. If anything, your car may seem less responsive since there is the possibility of heat soak on an exposed air filter.

I like my Popcharger/Z-tube combo.
