like i said, i am planning on supercharging my car, so really im doing this mod just for sound and looks if i decide to do it

i am honestly on the fence about this
I think it's a net negative mod. Looks bad to me cause it replaces a better intake. Try the Z1 post MAF tubes and see if your sound improves? You can hear my setup if you're around north county.

What filters do you have? What short ram intakes are they? Do you have a Nismo??
