i dont understand why the JWT pop charger isnt just called JWT short ram intake w/heat shield. Is there something im missing here? does it make popcorn or something?

 

its typical marketing. "Pop Charger" sounds much more powerful than short ram intake w/ heat shield. and its a lot easier to say.

 

Cuz it charges the pop going in the car. Pop being the air of course.

 

does the pop charger have the same problem as the cold air, in regards to water going into the engine?

 

Uhh...considering that the PC is inside the engine bay, if someone has water ingestion issues there, they better be damn good swimmers!

 

k good cause i want to get one, but dont want to worry about puddles. wouldnt that suck getting owned by a puddle.

also does the PC make a huge difference in sound?

 

It does make a noticable different at WOT and past 3800 rpm. At idle and cruise it sounds the same. The new sound is louder and meaner.

 

what does WOT stand for?

 

I have the Nismo CAI and my filter is right in front of the driverside front tire. I have never had a water problem even driving through some unbelievable rain storms!

 

Wide open throttle........100% gas

 

Wide Open Throttle

 

Washing Other Tranvestites

 

POP stands for Performance Optimized Programming.

per Jim Wolf Technologies...

 

damn all these terms!

 

OMG! ICTYGHBIWMZTAASAP. DTW. DDWFMMW. WNR, ITTB. DWRCTWWIUTLE!

(...that means, "Oh My God! I can't tell you guys how badly I want my Z to arrive as soon as possible. D@mn this wait. D@mn Denver weather for making me wait. Well not really, I take that back. Denver weather rocks compared to Wisconsin where I used to live earlier!")

Hehehe!

Oren, I actually figured out the WOT just recently myself as well; like a week ago or so. Acronyms are a hilarious thing!

 

BTW, I just installed the JWT Pop Charger. I didn't oil it, does it come oiled or not from the manufacturer (like K & N does before they ship them)? Thanks.

 

ya dont worry about it..it comes oiled out of the factory !! so your fine !!

 

ya so does anyone know if the pop charger shuts of AT while cruising at 80mph or is that problem only in the MT?

 

yup. If the filter element is blue in color, it's oiled. JWT uses a blue oil, K&N uses a red one.

 

Thanks, mine is Dodger Blue.
