how long did it take you guys to do the installation? i have few hours in the morning tomorrow. thinking about doing it then, but must finish by 1pm to go to work. is 4 hours enough time for this install?

btw, lou and the guys at amplified motorsports are great! very professional and great prices!

Hey Sylenze is this intake CARB approved? cause i know the stillen g3 is still pending as what others say.

Do these intakes sit right behind the removable plastic fang panels? For someone living in socal (little to no rain) it would would nice to have direct air flow to the filters if the placement is right.

:tiphat:I like the placement better then the stillen. It looks like it would be easyer to route that Modshack fang vent tube to it. Also doesnt set in front of a hot radiator. Whats price on this?

You would probably have to cut a hole in the plastic plate next to the filter but it'd be pretty easy. I don't know how that would work out for rain driving, though. I think the filter has easy access to cool air where it is right now, so I'm not sure if there would be any material benefit to routing the fang vents.
As far as pricing... PM the vendors. They can't publicly post the special pricing due to agreements with the manufacturers.

BTW, my apologies for the dirty pipes. I will clean them up tomorrow and get a pic of them clean and shiny. :) I'm really glad I opted for polished over powdercoated black.

I love Injen, I had them on my 350. Great product. My only concern is people talking about cutting those corner plates. If you do that you will expose the filters to direct elements. I wouldn't advise doing so. BTW..nice write up. I wish I had these on vs. my stillen.

My concern is that those side 'pockets' where the Ingens sit don't have as much airflow access as the Stillen kit gets right in front of the radiator.

I took the front fascia off to replace the horns and those lateral areas seem very isolated from good airflow. This just puts the intake filters in their own isolated little pockets once the fascia is back on. I'd be surprised if the gains for the Ingen come anywhere close to the Stillen GenIII.

They seem that way, but it's not like they are sealed off or anything. A fair amount of air that enters through the front grille makes it's way to those pockets.

If it's really a concern, you could always remove the "dividers" and completely open that area up, but then I'd worry about getting the filters wet in rain driving. Your best bet would probably be to cut holes in the dividers and use Steve's (Modshack) technique to divert some more air into that area.

You just need to aim the hoses or ducting at your filter. A left and right 90 degree angle off the fang holes, pointed toward you injen should work..

Re-reading through the 10 pages I found Q & A's on whether there would be a benefit on routing a hose from the fang area to the filter. And where does the air come from if the compartment of the air filter (Injen CAI filter placement) is completely sealed from outside environment.

I wanted to hilight some of the points of interest to save future readers from having to read all 10 pages.

Hope this helps!
It did for me!

I can't wait, either. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is maybe not being able to hear the engine as much. Really, regardless of the gains, I think the sound alone makes this kit worth the price. It absolutely changes everything... the thing sounds amazing.

I can't imagine what it sounds like to others as I accelerate past them... It sounds pretty wicked inside the car, especially with the windows down.

WOW!! I never thought I would actually see this!! An INJEN intake on a 370Z. I thought people only put those on honda civic dx's. That has to be one of the lowest quality brands out there; not to mention horrible looking! Its too bad that you couldnt have saved up more money and purchased a quality intake like an HKS. But then again you do have spacers on stock wheels so this intake is right up your alley. Low quality, low priced, just like the spacers. So I guess your into the inexpensive and cheap parts. Ohh well, to each their own. Better luck next time. remember you are driving a 30,xxx vehicle that deserves quality parts. I suggest you treat the car better.
