Just ordered R2C Intake from Andy.
<--- some teeth you can knock out to get the fund started. 
Here's one review from a fellow G37 owner.

Lol you 3 have been talking about getting springs for over 2 months now.
Come on Scott, get the Impuls already so Wes and Clem are convinced about the drop.
Send the money fairy my way too, I need rims!!
The R2C intake looks promising, I've heard good things about the filter element.
Waiting for your review kool. Congrats on getting a damn good intake

Get those bad *** rims already!!!!
I just pm'ed you about the rims
And I'm pretty sure Scott won't need spacers once he lowers the car. It'll fit fine.
I like the choice of words...
"Once he lowers"... not "if he lowers"
Sooner or later... it's gonna happen, and I'm not talking myself out of it.
I'm still waiting to hear back from Rick. I asked if he'd be able to do a slight discount on Impuls if I set up a group buy with deposits.
We'll see

Good luck with the group buy discount.
^ For those who dont know...
I got the R2C intake system and they are awesome!! The sound is deep loud growl but not too loud, you cant hear them until 3k+ and under WOT is beautiful, there is definite power gain in mid and high range with NO loss in low end. As per R2C they did many tests and honestly came out and said that each car's ecu reacted differnetly and they got results from 2-12whp and everyone will get results depending on their driving style and ecu programming and im sure mine was the lucky one! And the car runs a whole lot smoother, another interesting thing was that despite pushing it a lot initially more than half tank then driving sanely i was still able to pull off 20mpg which was nice though my good driving average is 22.1
and spirited is mpg.
The quality of the heatshields, pipes and filters is second to none and look nice in the engine bay, the installation was a snitch except the hose situation (will explain later) as everything bolted right up and the shields seal up with the hood very well as you can see with the minor wrinkle marks on the hood insulator with which it seals to keep hot air out.
i will post a better review with pics soon after i fix the install, the install of intakes is good as i said but the hose that goes from the crankcase to the intake tube is not supplied as its not needed for the g37(u use stock for g37) so i had to get a hose on my own, i still got to get a better one as these are not too flexible and the inlet on the intake tube is shaped awkwardly which does not leave much room for the oem style THICK hoses to bend.
The issue is that on the G37 they have a crankcase vent hose on both sides of the throttle body which allows the oem hoses to be simply attached to the intakes while on the G35 for some reason there is only one vent thats on the driver side and then a crossover pipe that joins onto the passenger side for going into the intakes.
I had to remove the breather element on the passenger side due to room and per instructions but cannot remove the driver side as its a 3way which leads the pipe to passenger side.
All in all i know this is confusing but once you look at it yourself you will know what im ranting about.
FYI: i ended up installing it by looping the hose over the intake tube to the crankcase to avoid the pipe from bending too much and affecting flow and am now awaiting R2C to send me some nice flexible silicone hoses.
Final thoughts: worth every penny and if you have a g37 go for it now! and if you have g35 get it but be ready to work for it unless r2c fixes this soon.
Hope it helps!

Thanks for the update Kool Yaar! That is very helpful.
I guess if I decide on these intakes, I will just wait until R2C sorts out this issue... rather than hunting down hoses and what nots...
Post a video too if you can!!!
