08 G35S sedan intake HELP

I'm new to the car game, I've driven a truck my whole life. I love my G35, but would like to get a little bit more sound out of the engine and maybe a few more HP. I'm thinking about starting with an intake, but am at a loss. I see people talking about Z-tubes and all sorts of other stuff and my mind is about to EXPLODE! If anybody could give me some input on some intakes that look good, easy install, and sound great it'd be greatly appreciated. I've been my buddy that used to be in the car game told me he always ran AEM in his cars, but I'm not seeing an AEM intake system for my application, is this true?

I don''t have the dual intake yours does, but I CAN tell you this; CAI is a waste of money. The only thing you gain is noise and something cool under the hood. The stock intake is very good. For the same price plus a few, you can get a set of Hotchkis sway bars which is way more fun than a CIA.

I was under the impression that with the sport package, the g35s already has sport suspension components. Is this wrong? Like I said, I've been more of a truck guy!

True, however, mine also was a "sport" model, but the sway bars made a night and day difference in the way it handles. So did the Tokico d-spec adjustable shocks and lowering it an inch.
