The 370z Useless Thread (Coors Lite version)

Did you see the intake nogood/tin were posting about yesterday? Looked promising, although I have concerns about its filtering ability

What is behind that black strip , above the fangs? Is it removeable, if so, would that help with the heat issue?

I'm really curious on the gains, I like the sound from their videos. The G37 video they included the fact that it had the HKS exhaust on it, but didn't say anything about one in the 370z, yet they had the same gains (18hp and 20ft/lbs)? Infact their dyno charts are identical.

Don't get me wrong, not hating, just really curious to see the results of the Independence test Any end consumer review is more than welcome to further my knowledge and influence into future purchases.

theres a thread out there about this subject. I'm not sure where, but I believe people were saying it didn't make a huge difference.

Maybe look to under panels and cooling panels to divert airflow. idk I'm tired and kind of brain dead today.

HFC...they give a nice bump in HP but how do they change the sound? I hear some people like them but others do not, just wondering.

CAI: High End Gain, Cooler temps = Denser Air
SRI: Low End Gain, Less travel time = More Air Now
