Looking to possibly put in a CAI or short ram. Reading Short ram intake may be best for my setup, but wanted to see some opinions on which would be best for the best price.

What does everyone think about the JWT pop charger or Stillen Short Tube ?

Is that your Z in your sig? Hah.. that Z is sick!

Anyways, so far the general consensus is that the stock airboxes are the best on the HR motors (07-08). However, I think there is an Injen intake out and then a Stillen setup that's either already out or will be soon. Still, no one has seen any gains with them. If you're just going for the sound though, I feel ya and won't be a hater. =P

Older intakes don't work for our cars because we have two air intakes.

Lol no I found that pic on the web. Mine is the other.

Yah I read where most say just put in k n filter. The jwt were the only ones with dyno results and sounded damn good on an audio clip. But I may stay stock.

either way our cars dont make much power off intakes so personally id go with the cheapest option, and here is the cheapest place to buy your stuff (they will also price match) and shipping takes 2days or less

Z1 recommends the JWT and for the 07 with dual intake will need of course there dual intake setup for $349. I found this forum and this discount is still good and will be priced $310.

True you did. Will have to save up, or get the Stillen because it does look more stock and no drilling. Still got a warranty on the car and dont want to do too much to possibly void it.

im pretty sure that any intake will void it, but the warranty is only Void is the dealership sees it, so ifyou ever need any warranty work done just take it off

I suggest you go with the Stillen Gen 3 intake on the HR. Sounds wonderful and it will make power. I know from experience.

More likely right about the warranty all together. Will have to double check the paperwork, it is an extended warranty. If I can get away with it I would rather drop the dime on an exhaust system anyway :ninja:

Will make sure to keep that in mind when I get closer to getting one. Thanks.

It's the TurboXS exhaust and I think it was pretty cheap even when new. That being said I own it and it's definitely a quality exhaust.. full stainless etc. and sounds great.

I just saw a slightly used one on Craigslist the other day for $350.. it's probably still there.

Yeah I'll be at the meet.. not sure where it is yet but I'll try to update the meet thread.

My Stillen Gen 3 should be in this week, was a pretty penny but the dyno's do show gains.

Yah they are a pretty penny, but tell me how your experience with it is and I may look to save for it myself.
