Just my thinking...

+1 Agreed. If i had my 370z now, I would keep the stock intake until there is a proven setup that works well. Everyone thought that CAI's would produce power on the 350z and most of them showed no gains and even lost power so that turned me in the other direction of going with a CAI setup. Now I have the pop charger which gives a great sound and I picked up 4whp from it. Ill just wait until there are more intake setups for the Z and people will have their car tuned with real world results.

This is probably the closest thing to an "intake" modification I would go. I recently switched from the JWT pop charger to the stock airbox, and I notice a heck of a difference with my car. It really hauls now. I just open it up a bit and I start to lose traction!
