Just ordered a pair for my car. Do you remember how long they took to arrive after ordering from AutoAnything by any chance? Also, does the car feel any stronger with the solid PMAF pipes and the AFE filters in place vs stock?

I think it took 5 business days.

Your going to notice better throttle response and the car seems to breathe better in the low and mid range. The Takeda Intake was the first part I put on the car then HFC, CBE, and AAM Cobb Tune. I noticed the intake temps were high so I took off the Takeda Intake and ran the stock intake for a week before I hacked up the Takeda Tubes to fit the stock box. As soon as I changed the stock tubes with the Takeda I got back the whoosh intake sound, this was with the paper filters. The AFE Filters added a bit more flow and maybe a few HP. The 370z Stock Intake is actually pretty good from the factory but every little bit helps.

Hmm I'm now considering the Cobb tubes as I'd like to keep the stock intakes (running HKS filters). They are claiming 6hp on the HPS tubes too?

Sounds good! I'm going to stick with the AFE dry filters and the solid PMAF pipes, either Cobb or maybe something custom on there. I figure for $115 to $125 it costs for the Cobb pipes, I easily could buy some standard 45 degree aluminum pipes, weld on the connections on the side and have them ceramic coated for a nice shine and heat protection (and a little bling). They will be a bit shorter though as I dont want to cut the airboxes.

End result would hopefully be a bit better throttle response, some blind, bit more engine sound and maybe a few hp.

Out of curiosity, are the Takeda pipes 2.75" up to the throttle bodies (I know they reduce near the MAF)? Need to know what size to go with. Thanks!

I will have to check I do think it is 2.75" up to the throttle body. I say this because when I bought the 3" coupler to connect the throttle body to the intake tube it has a bit of room like the coupler is just a little bigger then the throttle body and Takeda Tube.
