Hi guys, im new to the forum. My names Kyle. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for a cold air intake for my car. I have a 08 Altima Coupe 2.5s. I purchased a stillen but had problems with them and there was no where to mount it. I sent pictures to them their ideas failed. Im sending back and getting a refund. I would love to have a K&N but im sure they're not out yet. I even called them just now and the lady had no idea what i was talking about and that they knew nothing about one being produced. Any replies are appreciated.

I have looked. I was wanting everyones review on their intakes. I am thinking about buying an Injen. I was wondering if anyone has heard anything from K&N. Also thanks for the link, i had already had that link, thats where I did my own research on the intakes. Good job to the guy that posted that.

The K&N facility had a fire a few months back in the R&D department. It will take a few more months before the kit is finished from this point.

Not sure if you still have the Stillen intake or are at all interested in keeping it...but I could provide a few pictures as to how to mount it with the bracket. It's not pretty...requires two pairs of pliers and some good 'ol brute force but it works...

I'm extremely disappointed in Stillen...everyone brags up their customer service but when I called they were rude and of no help whatsoever. Was planning on buying a few body kit parts from them but after that...ha, don't think so. I'll gladly wait on another company!

you might have seen this thread, but AFAIK, this has the most info on the K&N one... http://forums.altimas.org/zerothread/338767

also, the AEM intake came out recently, check out this thread, if you haven't already done so, http://forums.altimas.org/zerothread/351273

in general, I would suggest the "Altima Engine, Drivetrain & Tuning" forum for more on this stuff

oh, and welcome

I think i saw your pics of the bent bracket somewhere. IDK. Maybe cardomain? anyway I like a cleaner look. just a personal preference i guess.

the aem intake is only for the 3.5 i thought?

thanks guys!
