The sad truth is that intakes on most cars make minimal, or no difference in power, but they do look good, make the car sound better, and can increase throttle response. Not to mention they have re-useable filters.

Pop chargers are not going to yield those gains on the VQ.

The worst part of the pop charger is that thing they call a "heat shield". It's anything but a shield. During stop and go traffic, all the heat lying around the engine bay will have a negative impact on performance. (Once moving, heat shields aren't going to be much of a factor since there's colder air moving into the engine bay).
