CAI vs. SRI

I don't think there is a k&n CAI only SRI. Stillen g3 is a CAI and the placement of the filter makes it hard for it to suck in water.

Go with the Stillen Gen3. Best gains and the only CAI where there is almost no possible way of having water ingestion.

There isn't the K&N CAI... right now Stillen is king when it comes to intakes... Motordyne I believe will be developing one soon, but that could be a while.

Also Takeda has just released a new CAI for the G37's, won't be much longer before the 370Z press release if you can hold out... Similar piping as the Stillens, but with rubber tubing to go between the shroud supports, supposedly you won't have to cut anything like you do with the Stillens. And it will consist of 1 large filter as opposed to 2 separate ones.
