I have a 2005 g35 coupe automatic. I've been looking for an air intake. Any ideas on which ones are the best?

Stillen or JWT with the Z tube. Personally I say JWT, but I'm slightly biased.

I got JWT pop charger and z-tube on order, should receive it at the end of the week .... I'll let you know how it turned out ... I basicaly went with this set up because many peple were happy with it, it seems like performance wise the intakes are very similar, and $200 shipped for the combo sounded like a good price as well ...

You will not notice ANY hp difference between these. Minimal gains for intake mods. It's more about sound. If you want to learn more, click the FAQ sticky thread, then go into the Modification Database thread. You will learn pretty much everything you need to know.

I went with JWT and Ztube...

JWT says the z tube and pop charger combo adds 6+ hp. Does anyone think that it is more or less and was it a noticeable difference.
