So its about that time to pick up some intake parts for my coupe...

read a bunch about the PC/Ztube combo...i know there really isnt much of a gain in any combination...but that seems to be what alot of people recommend...anyone have any other opinions on good set-ups other than that?
or is this combo pretty much the best way to go?...and whats the difference between like the Stillen Ztube and the one from the 350z...is the K&N drop in filter better than the PC?? lemme get some opinionssss

 

How much time have you spent doing your own research on this topic already?


ibtl

 

clearly not alot since i figured all those answers out from reading the forums.

Pop charger isnt worth it....for the 06 that you have get the z-tube

stillen or oem doesnt matter...whatever you can get cheapest (oem will run more but can be found used sometimes, new stillen is your best bet)

filters K&N is just more widely used and the company is used across the board so its prob your best bet. There wont be really much difference between brands as long as its re-usable.

 

I've never been a big fan of aftermarket intakes on the G having tried the pop charger and various drop-ins. That being said I've been very happy with the R2C. Seals against the hood to prevent heat soak and has a huge dry filter that flows extremely well.

 

Doesn't do ya a lick of good with that metal intake tube. You might as well throw out the heat shield and let all the "cool" sounds out!!
