First off you sound ridiculous. People like you are the reason tuners and other companies aren’t running to our cars to support them. The other titanium intake option is 2200 bucks. I'm not after the highest gains so dude please don’t consultant me about where my money should go. I wasn’t paying for the gain's of the unit's I’m paying for the fact that they are titanium and that’s what I want period case closed. People are starving in Africa? really but yet again you bought a 370z? The price for these intakes are irrelevant I saved for them I knew these were coming out months a head of time. For those who buy the meisterschaft system purely on sound it’s no different. When you buy titanium you're gonna pay period nobody should be surprised.
AMEN brotha....... At the end of the day you get what you pay for and you do what makes you happy. Being different and unique is a good thing. I bought my Meisterschaft exhaust b/c I loved the sexy arse sound it makes. Yeah I could have gone with something else that was a lot cheaper and squeezed out more hp, but I didn’t and I have no regrets.

I’m curious about the TI CAI though. I would think that the TI CAI would sound a little bit different since they are TI vs. stainless steel. I know that TI exhausts (assuming same exhaust) will sound a bit different compared to a stainless steel exhaust.

Once again mad props on the TI CAI and they look EFFEN clean. I had to look at the pics several more times b/c the look it just purely different. You are the very first person to my knowledge with TI CAI and do not let anyone put you down on your purchase. Remember people are always going to hate and be jealous of what others might have.

this isnt africa....this is america, before we go about worrying about other people in other countries we need to worry about the starving/homeless people in our states...besides its his money he can do whatever he wants with it...


the intakes look badass if i had the cash to dish out i would def pick these up. hopefully the gains are similar if not better then the stillen g3.

Ti usually means you paid a fortune for it. I'm afraid to ask.

Wow, that's pricey. Ti always is. It's expensive and a pain in the *** to work with. It looks sweet, though.

It does do something other intakes don't. It's Ti. Aesthetics are important to some people, and they're willing to pay for it. It could be worse. He could have bought those $2k Top Secret intakes.

just find it funny that everyone flips out over an intake that costs $250 more than most others, but when someone buys a full gthaus system (double the price of most others) or a tommy kaira hebi bebi its totally acceptable. kinda ironic don't ya think?

Yeah I find it weird that people think the price is high for these. Going from stainless steel to titanium exhaust systems usually results in at least a doubling of prices, and this is still less than double what the GenIII's cost.

I like the intakes. For that much money though, I would assume whoever buys them can afford a tune and I would have made the piping 2.75" all the way through.

I'm sure we all purchase things that others might not agree with. I would expect a little more respect from our forum members.

I would have bought these if i wasnt already going FI. I think they look great especially in a monteray blue car. More power to the OP for getting something he wanted for his car.
