Anyhoooooo. Just get the Stillen if you want intakes. Don't waste your time reading about it.

Hahahahahaaaa!!! I'm sorry I'm one of those guys bruh... Lol. I was a stillen intake junkie. But on this forum I read so many positives about drop ins with the silicone intake hose. With just that and a straight pipes. (No second res). I had torque increase throught the revs. About 6hp and 4lb of tq throughout the range. Doesn't sound like much but it increased my throttle response by 100%. So my Z is running like it gained 15/20hp. It helps to have larger gauge electrical wiring running from the transmission (ONLY WORKS ON AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS) And oil/transmission coolers. My Z's performance is much better than my 09 and my mods thus far are minimal I have this, stereo and suspension mods. Stillen gives an 18hp boost but @ 5200rpm you're losing Hp/tq from 0-4600rpm. This car doesn't have enough Tq to lose power in any rpm.
Have the money to FI it now but am waiting to see if I want the Z35 instead. If it comes stock with turbos? It will be cheaper to mod a nd more fun to drive my instinct tells me.
