HEy Guys its been a while. few days ago i just traded my OB g35 Coupe sports back in for a athens blue g37S. Im absolutely loving it. the car is just amazing to drive not to mention the wonderful interior technology and design.

Heres a question though, im looking into adding EIther the Stillen DUel Ram Intakes or the Fujita ones. Im leaning towards the Stillen because of the heat shield it provides. What do you guys think?

also will i get a check engine light changing the intake? i hada CAI on my 35 i dont recall having a light pop up. any information would be greatly appreciated .

Ill will try to post up PIctures ASAP

Congrats on the new ride... pics of said toy are required!

This topic comes up VERY frequently.... I like the look of the engine bay when the filters are not covered. So my personal choice is Fujita. But... that's your call.

Don't worry about an engine light, the computer should reset itself after the install!

I don't know about the intake for the g37 but I had the Stillen intake on my 03 g35 and you had to take the thing entirely apart to clean and oil the filter. That was a major pain in the ***. Plus I never could discern any real benefit from the mod. Good Luck

I believe it's about a 6hp gain... not to mention the nicely added WOOT sound

I asked my local speed shop just after I put on the intake about underdrive pulleys as a inexpensive way to get more horsepower, They told me the pulleys and the intake were the same, you get 6 or 10 or whatever extra horsepower but that is spread over the powerband and not availablle all the time. You get 2 here, 3 there and that adds up to the claimed 10 or so hp increase.
