Best bolt on mod for the G37S?

Hey fellas,

I thought I read somewhere that the best bolt on mod for the G37 is the dual cold air intake. Which brand, how much, and how much hp are we talking about here?

And is it tough to install?

And lastly, I don't think it voids warranty does it?

Thanks fellas,
DocJV

Before the search ****'s get you......

Best single bolt on so far seems to be the Stillen G3 intake or hi flow cats. Both are going to run around $400-500 each depending where you buy from. Install on both is about a 6 or 7 out of 10. I would pay someone to do the cats because the bolt is pita to remove and dont want to break the sensor. CAI I would do myself.

I'd say exhaust and/or HFC. I haven't been to fond of the intakes thus far.

hfc is what most people are saying... obviously you're gonna void the warranty for that part, but unless it's proven to make another part fail, the warranty is still there.
