Guys, i'm a new G35 driver here

I'm kinda confused about buying new or used Cold air intake for my car

i have black G35 and i wanted to get either used chrome AEM or maybe new black Nismo intake. any suggestions?

the other thing is
is it different when you use the new or old intake?
thanks!

 

buy the used AEM from sundeviljay... ive seen it... it just needs a good cleaning

 

mm.. how about Kenny03g35?
it's better on mileage anyway
and 50 bucks diff.

 

Hey man your money and your G FYI i think the NISMO is great just a lil $$$... if you wana go cheap get ztube/pc combo

 

Skip the CAI all together and get a Z-tube/Popcharger combo.

 

Exactly! x2

Don't by any CAI. There's a reason why you see a bunch out there for sale. People are learning that they do nothing (at best). I say "nothing....at best", because in several cases, they have proven to actually lose power. Thay away from the CAIs. I am speaking from personal experience.

I had the AEM, because a local shop pushed it on me. Worst decision I ever made for my car.

 

yeah right! how much? LMAO

 

id go with a pop charger/ztube combo

 

I lost low end power with my Injen CAI on my 03 5AT sedan, but it did sound nice. With my new 05 5AT coupe I went with Z-Tube/Popcharger combo from what I learned and read. Much better choice. Not as loud, but still sounds real nice under acceleration and no power loss.

 

mmm..i'm really new at this
how much is it for real? h

 

Do a search on intakes and I think you will find out all you need to know from people with experience. A lot of stuff from CAI manufacturers is hype. They look good and sound good, but don't give you the performance you might be thinking it will. I know, I had one. I don't have old dyno sheets, but I only gained about 2HP peak with CAI only. I just installed Z-Tube/Popcharger combo. I have not had it dynoed, but I can feel the difference. Ultimately it is up to you and what you decide you would like to have on your car. You don't have to listen to us. Just have fun with it.

 

stay away from AEM, and go with Stillen or Injen

 

love my stillen and ztube but you could probably do just as well with a ztube and a K&N drop in filter.

 

sundeviljay is good peeps - i bought headers he didn't want to install from him; definately a smooth transaction when dealing w/ him
