I'm going to order their replacement filters for the JWT, better airflow, filtration and best of all ...no oiling. According to Kyle, the G35/350 JWT filter is the same filter used on the G37 Pop Charger. Can anyone else verify that?

That would be really cool if these fut JWT opening for sure, that would make me feel safer getting these intakes with better filteration with NO OILING!!! and no stress of checking under the hood to see if the oil has evaporated or sucked in...

They do fit, JWT uses the same filters for all popchargers with exception of the 90-96 300zx. Not only no oiling, you clean by blowing low pressure air from the inside out.. no waiting to dry either. Just ordered a set myself.

Interesting read on them.

I am concernced about the same issue of filtration. Since there is presently no Amsoil replacement filter for the stock intake, it was initially the primary reason I got in the JWT Group Buy. Because, I could replace the JWT filters with Amsoil EaAU6075 Induction filters for fine particles of 2 microns and cover w/ Amsoil pre-filters to trap larger particles for filter longevity. It is interesting that R2C was able to produce a low restriction filter and looks by the graph that Amsoil (Donaldson) is their closest competitor. Does any one know what smallest size micron particles the R2C filter can trap and still maintain 100% efficiency?

YES!! JWT here i come, i do wish they came with those filters instead to give us all a peace of mind, but still i'd rather spend the extar 150 and have my engine run safe, like someone already said after reading all that. i can tell they know what they are doing.

And Red, plz do post reviews and pics THANKYOU!

I'm 95% sure they are not the same filter.

Look at the pics below, the G37 filter looks like its larger is diamater, but not as long as the G35 filter. Mabe it would fit, but they are defn different.

G35

I was thinking getting Injen Pre-Filter and 2.75" cold air intake bypass valve.

BTW would this work?
