B) stillen promises 18 crank hp, injen will add about 11rwhp. (Rwhp is my main concern, not crank)
C) no pulling off the bumper or drilling to install or other tedious problems like the intakes not sealing properly due to improper cutting and stuff. The INJEN sounds more muscular and is a better all round value though you may lose 2 or 3 HP at the crank. I bet @ the wheels its probably only a 1 hp loss from stillen.

Hope this helped?

P.S. have the dealer install it. Then if its done improperly. It falls on them. You have a 30day workmanship warranty. On top of that they will be forced to swallow any issues with install.

P.P.S. Why did AEM abandon the Z/G? I loved there products in my. 98 240sx and 06 G35 sport. I see nothing from them since 06.
I got the G3 because I wanted a CAI - not one that sucks hot air from inside the engine bay. I'm curious as to what the size of the filter on the INJENs are as well - the don't look to be much bigger than the tubing from the one's I saw.... regardless the do perform quite well I just thought the G3 was the better of the two...
