More air to Injen? Or other Intake options?
some say stillens power is mostly at the top end is wrong and i think it moves people away from itthe tq from this is well it felt right from the start.i feel the gains thought the powerband and it really starts to pull hard at 3500k and on.the install is kinda of a pain but well worth it.i guess it just personal preference.

Personally I think it makes very little difference what bolt-ons you put on this car, excludig FI. You remove some restriction with intake/exhaust, get a tune and you should see ~+25 over stock.. Factor in any give car can vary by 10Hp and the this one's better than that one is really pointless. There are other things to consider as well, easy of install, maintenance and engine protection.
These gains are small for the investment, but no matter which bolt-ons you pick and providing you get a good tune you'll feel the difference and be quite happy with the driving experience just getting away from the stock tune.

you are incorrect, it is not more air flow that is the cause of the gains.
kyle millen from stillen emailed a very detailed explanation.
the short version is they use a 2 1/2 inch diamiter piping not (3inch cause to much turbulence indie the the throtle bodies)
by making the tube loner not wider, it creates a higher velocity of air flow taking advantage of the ram air built in by infiniti.(333 hp @ 60 mph)
stillen researched it & spent on ton on r&d.
injen may make some power down low, but I need it more when I'm wot.
fact stillen makes the most hp,why else by an intake for sound.?

we're all adults right? i'm not bashing here.
I appreciate all the feedback. Makes the decision even harder, ironically
I think I am going Injen and going to buy from Lou @ Amplified. Then get an UPREV tune, which I came to find out, is more expensive than the intake! Costly process to squeeze out 20WHP
