I can tell a difference...my G35 feels more responsive and seems like there is more power in the higher rpms3)which one should i get? I like the Stillen intake...it looks like the OEM airbox, but JWT popcharger is just as good too.4)is it hard to Install by my self? No...it's a very easy install

Get a Z-tube to go along with the intake too....increases the sound as well, but again in a good way...the standard engine noise is to quiet for me. The engine sounds like some of the best and most expensive cars on the market IMO, but you need to let her get some air first!!!

The Z tube is used on the 350Z...it allows the air to flow directly into the engine...our G's have baffles that reduce the noise from the engine, but also hurts the airflow going into the engine....

This is really a matter of price...if you wanted to save a few bucks the JWT popcharger is really good and does the same thing as the stillen...I went with the stillen because of the stealth look with the performance sound. NISMO is good too, but IMO costs more for less effect.
