Check my comment above...I said half and if I got 10 out of their 17.5 I'd be delighted. NOW, for some of you who have heard or are saying the G3s are actually not as good as the stock box or have no measurable difference...some stats on today's trip. I installed Friday and drove about 70 miles to the Z Nationals around noon today. I zeroed the MPH/MPG when I hit the interstate. About 65 miles later, I registered an average speed of 64.4 and a MPG of 30.5! We all know a CAI improves gas mileage. I've never pulled much over 27/28 before. Never in the 30s. So what does this mean? It means the G3s are doing SOMETHING better than the stock airboxes. Maybe it's not a huge noticeable power increase (I THINK I notice a difference/increase but I'm allowing for it just being my wishful thinking). But the increase in MPG means the G3s are getting better air inside the engine and it's running more efficiently and if it's doing that, then it's making more HP. And it was around 90 when I made that trip. Another trip I routinely measure is from home to work. I'll see how that one turns out next time I drive to work. PS: I didn't get this thing for increased MPG. It's a side benefit. I'm just using the numbers as proof something good is happening. |

and more mileage means less power? if the engine can burn its fuel more effectively than stock and the ECU adapts then I don't see why its impossible. hell I know plenty of people who chiptuned their car and got more power while drinking less fuel. |

Wow 370ZSteve...was looking at your signature and it seems that based on your comments you're dissatisfied with the G3's which is listed as one of your parts...Did you really get a decrease in power from them?
|
now I have a 370z, but before I have 350z and y buy kN thyphonn, JWT pop charger and gruppe-m, was bad for my money, now I'll leave the 370Z intake oem, better to spend that money on Final drive gear Set 4.083, that is a good modification.
This is my opinion, my experience over 5 years 350z. |

+6 HP from CAI as my 2nd mod. I love my G3's. Whe I touch them after driving, they are hot as hell. There is a reason Cobb made intake tubes out of non-metallic materials. |
Guys, guys, please don't post Wikipedia links to support your opinions. Anyone can post, or edit, a Wiki page. Not exactly authoritative.......

Most eveyr aftermarket CAI maker boasts increased MPG and POWER. The Wiki article says the same thing. But you say it isn't so. There's no free ride, etc. I disagree with you and a lot of other reading material disagrees with you, too. |
