get the Titek CF air inlet mod. Involves cutting your front bumper but you'll get more air flow to your air filter. http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/a...ee097a7qo83vs7


BTW Headers are a complete waste of time IMO

so you ask us ways to improve your airflow, but can't afford it..

solution: stop modding your z

In terms of airflow, your next best bet would be head work and/or cams. Otherwise, look into gears like terrasmak suggested

which is expensive, gives a massive rightshift in power and you would gain much with used fi for about the same price

how everyone seems to think "omg do everything to a engine itz da way to goez!"?

*shrug* its too easy to just hang around a shop a little and bs with some guy to learn how these things interact instead of just "put da biggest in der!" people just like to believe what they are told by other people because its what they want to hear.
