Hey guys, I was looking at this intake for my 05 g35x:


I was wondering if anyone has this intake? How much HP I will gain? How the install is and basically if you guys recommend this intake?

Thanks!!!

 

you won't see massive gains from an intake, you'll see about the same from a drop in K&N filter and z-tube. Intake's do look good tho

Install is pretty straight forward, should take around 30 mins if you have the right tools

 

Do you know what it will sound like?

 

slightly more aggressive, deeper, no crazy change tho

 

So the question is: should I get it?

 

sure why not, its a good price

 

u can get nismo cold air intake from g35parts.com for $233 + shipping

 

Stillen + Z-tube can be picked up for about that much and it has a nice air box around the filter so you're not sucking in hot engine bay air. That k&n one doesn't look like cold air to me..

 

I went with a z-tube, revup venturi ring in stock box, and airaid synthamax non oiled drop in filter cause k and n sucks a big one. Sounds great and pulls good about 6 to 8 ponies increase! Try it on.

 

Decided against the K&N because of heat soak. Went ahead and got the Stillen+ Z tube

 

Dyno sheets for before and after or is it just a placebo effect / justify the purchase......

 

You are right about placebo affect for sure no denying it. But its not like stillen or r2c or jwt claiming 12 hp. I built mine using the best stock parts and a great panel filter and not to forget maf cleaning, I swear by what I said earlier, there are gains to be had not much but gains none the less.

 

^ Not 6 to 8 ponies though. I have the same setup.
