I have them in my Z right now. (I put them in before RCZ discovered that there's no gain.) Do you have a question about them? You know...I just ordered a new Stillen intake, so in about two weeks I'm not going to need them anymore. If you want them, you can have them. Just cover my shipping cost and they're yours.

If he doesn't want them, I'll definitely take them and cover your shipping costs.

Consider yourself to have first dibs if CCH doesn't want them.

Well,thanks for the offer,i think just put in the K&N filter will do,it will affect the warranty,if i modify to many things,even K&N air filter is not allow,but i can easily remove it,put back the paper filter before sending in the car for servicing.

Does that mean you want them? I think the answer is yes, but I just want to make sure.

Oh no worries. I sorta suspected there wouldn't be much gain anyway. Really, I got them because I have this unreasonable OCD-type prejudice about paper filters. It was one of those 'matter of principle' things. Don't ask me for the logic behind it, because there isn't any!
