Or, if you can find a set of G3's or a similar design for around $300, go with those, as you'll probably pick up 6-8 more whp.

I wouldn't ever run any intakes that have the filters by the wheels, as the AEM one does, especially if you live in an area prone to flooding.

I also have a (presently stalled) intake project underway with Swift Racing that will utilize CNC'd bell mouths to improve flow, but no idea when those will be made.
, love my Z1 Post MAF tubes with K&N air filters, and my matching other silicone hoses from Z1 too, just like Tanabe they appreciate their customers.

There isn't any gains though off of the silicone tubes right? I mean it really doesn't make sense. HPS said there is a 6 something gain with both hp and tq. Input?
