So..was doing a bit of research on this part and ran into this quote from NY Bladez which was posted on Elia CID's thread regarding the G3's...

You See I'm a bit confused with the whole Stillen G3 Intake arguement...I recall doing research on the forum and seeing members arguing and posting that there really weren't any gains...and that gains were only seen after 6.5K-7K....but I recently read two seperate threads...One by Semtex and One from RCZ...in RCZ's thread he reported receiving 20WHP...This was his only mod at the time...Semtex did another review..however he was already running the Stillen CBE/Berk HFC Combo and Semtex reported gaining 14.7 WHP on top of what he already had with the Exhaust....I find both of these members to be very respectable "Call it as it is" reviewers....
Here are their threads for reference...
STILLEN Longtube G3 Intakes. Review, Dyno and Impressions.
Install of Stillen G3 Intakes complete - review, etc.
Can some Stillen G3 owners chime in and support or negate the truth of the type of HP these things really produce?
