I'd take the Stillen over K&N anyday. But for your dollar, the JWT http://www.jimwolftechnology.com/ Pop Charger is the way to go.

I'd go with stillen air box with Ztube.I got a 03 sedan and just installed Stillen airbox (found it on EVERYTHINGG35.com) it works great and sounds awesome

The JWT Popcharger is a cheaper version of the Stillen Popcharger. The only difference is in the heat shield...the filters are the same. (They are made of cotton, just like the K&N) In fact, you can clean and re-oil with the K&N filtercharger kit! The K&N is a drop-in filter and will not give you the extra sound of the popcharger filter.

Personally, I prefer the look of the Stillen...but the performance is the same. The Z-tube should be used with both.

i just installed the jwt pop charger with z tube.... sounds verry good it feels like a little more power or maby its just the sound but looks like a high school kid made the heat shield as a high school project.. id deff go with the stillen looks better... As the other guy said this intake is a cheaper version of the stillen... Ill have pics up soon... If you want a quick cheap mod go get the universal gold heat temp paint from auto zone paint the calipers looks just like the upgraded ones.... cost me like 6 bucks for the paint... Ill have pics up soon
