For me it's like people pre-ordering the Injen already without having all the components ready, the water bottle doesn't affect performance, in the Pop-Charger case, the heat shield used for tests before were for other car and it still worked great, having our own heat shield just should assure us that the product now is rock solid.
I agree about JWT being top notch... but... I really would like to see before and after 3rd party dynos as I would with the Injen also... I know that looking at the JWT I wanna know what they did thats different than Fujita and stillen cause they look similiar... I hope its good.... but then again ... if no one dynos... not many will take peoples butt dynos opinion...

Fingers Crossed tho! they sure look nice!

and JWT is commited to nissan only ,,, they were providing parts for nissan for some quite time now ,,, i agree they take time in r&d of their products ,, actually their shop doesnt have any banner or name outside(probably to make them discreet) and concentrate on their work ,,, il go with the pop chargers ,,injen is good ,, but no CAI for me

Ya that's my main concern. We get some pretty good puddles around my area at times and occassionally from some spontaneous rains. I don' t want to have to alter my driving habits just for the sake of having a CAI.

From what I've seen and learned so far I like Injen too. But let me ask you, why are u hesitant to go CAI?

Newbie question. Is it a Niss/Inf thing or what? What the heck is a pop charger? In a nutshell, what is it, what does it do, approx what does it usually cost? Any adverse affect or is it one of those win-win mods like a well-built intake? Someone please tell me. Thanks

A "Pop Charger" is a trademarked product produced solely by Jim Wolf Technology. It is similar to a short air intake but utilizes a venturi system to increase maximum efficiency and increase airflow.
