Need a little help choosing....
I currently have a 2006 G35 coupe 6mt.
It has:
MREV2 lower plenum, 5/16 spacer ($240.00), K&N/Ztube combo...
I find that it isnt really loud enough. It doesnt even sound as loud as my old mazda 3 2.3 with fujita intake when I give it some. Now the exhaust is a completely different story...way way nice. However, I want to make it a little bit louder..should I scrap the z-tube/k&N and get a CAI (fujita...or the like)-would that really make a difference in sound? I have read quite a bit on this stuff and it sounds like I would not gain any horsepower at all...maybe even lose a little (which I dont mind as long as I dont notice it)---but if it sounds much better, I would be into it. Any input would be appreciated...
I have even read a bit about Y-pipes....should I go that route? I would like to keep the same exhaust tone as well.
Thanks!

Yep. Should I scrap the z-tube/k&N and get a pop charger...or should I get an Intake??...or should I just keep the current setup and get a y-pipe or something

The guy who had the car before me had a fast intentions exhaust on the car...too loud for me. I just want something in the middle between that fast intentions full exhaust and the stock. Should I go y-pipe or do the intake/popcharger stuff?
How about the intake first, then a used hr y-pipe after. It might take a while to find a low mile, cheap y-pipe, so you can save up in the meantime. I picked mine up for $75 off an 07 350z with 3k miles.
