Intake question for my new 09 coupe!

[Andy_G]

This may be an exhausted topic and if it is I apologize but here goes.

I have 2 questions

I am trying to figure out which intake to get for my 09 3.5L. I was just wondering what peoples preference is when it comes to intake. I have found a few around. I was leaning towards the Nismo but I don't know if the one for 08 will fit my 09.

That brings me to question 2. Is there any difference between the 08 and 09. i.e do I need to wait until intake for 09 comes out or will 08 work just the same?

I didnt know nismo had an intake.

There is no difference between an 07 to 09. Same car pretty much.

K&N is coming out with an intake.Stillen, fujita, Aem, and injen.

Thats it...

Hey guys, New to this forum but a long time reader.

Looking at getting an intake system for my A/C 3.5se. I am trying to chose between the Injen and the AEM. The price right now is not what I am worried about (although 100$ difference is a lot) but I am curious about your opinions on which one to chose. I am also curious if anyone has had a problem with the injen system rubbing (MAF rubbing mainly) under the hood?

What do you guys think would be the best?

I have the Injen. No problem with clearance. I also have the Stillen strut tower brace which clears both the Injen and the hood. I am quite pleased with the Injen but can't comment on the others - I've never had experience with them.

IIRC only the 2.5 had rubbing issues not the 3.5...

[Chuck2417]

Ok thanks guys, I was just wondering if there were issues with the 3.5 because on the other forums no one commented on the 3.5's.

They fixed that a while back and yes it was mostly the 2.5's having the issue.

I didnt know nismo had an intake.

They don't at this time, but supposedly they've been working on a CAI (yes, a CAI) since our car has been out.

There is no difference between an 07 to 09.

I'm sure you just had a moment of brain loss but there is no 07 coupe

K&N is coming out with an intake.

Yes, for the 2.5 and it's out now. If you are referring to a K&N for the 3.5 I inquired about one and they stated they were not building it.

Whats up light weight 2.5 pulley!!!!!!

lol

im talking about most of the engine parts are pretty similar from 07 sedans to 08 09 sedans and coupes.

Yes, for the 2.5 and it's out now. If you are referring to a K&N for the 3.5 I inquired about one and they stated they were not building it.

I searched for the thread for 2 seconds and realized im incredibly lazy. there is somebody on this forum that prototyped the 3.5 k&n and they should have their intake within the week. The retail intakes will be ready soon. When i last read the thread the tubes were done getting painted or something.

[Andy_G]

What about the Stillen intake? Has anyone seen or heard anything about that one?

Andy g, im moving it now, check the performance section...
