The stalling claim isn't BS assuming you have a 6MT. The POP/Stillen CAI setups will stall out a 6MT if you're heavy on the throttle and at a high rpm (above 5000rpms) and then push the clutch in (ie coasting in neutral). The stall usually happens to people at highway speed.

Power-not really, but what do you expect to get from an intake? It's just an intake.
Sound-yes

Will the big CAI's work on sedans? I'd like to get one with the long tube that goes down into the bumper. Are those pretty effective? I have a PC and a stillen intake tube but i'd like to do somthing different.

PC and OEM Ztube

I have an 05 G35X,(5AT) and I am running the PC and the OEM Z tube. I love the sound, and here in Sacramento we see 110 plus degrees every summer. I have never experienced heat soak from my PC under any circumstances, and I have seen a mild increase in fuel mileage. I have not tuned or done any other modifications whatsoever. I plan on using the Cipher and using the Osiris to tune, but after a few more mods . I havent dynoed my car to see if there is a loss/gain, but the butt dyno tells me it is quicker to get up to that nice powerband.
