I'm gonna disagree.

the Pop charger is great, but for the buck. Nismo CAI can be had for like $200.

And provides MUCH better low/midrange pull and still excellent top end compared to the POP. I had a brand new POP on for about 3 weeks, then immediately installed the Nismo unit I had laying around, and the difference was quite staggering. Plus, the POP was just getting to be too loud and annoying with the whistling. The Nismo is still loud but not nearly as much.

 

i have a pep boys filter duct taped on!!! that ones the best!

 

not really...my girl is buy me a popcharger tho....shes the greatest!! and shes gonna help me with the headers/testpipes too tonight....shes gonna get all greasy with me bwahahahahaaaaaa

 

AFE if money is no object I just sold mine for boost and loved it best intake design ever.

jwt is good too

 

Didnt feel any sort of gain with mine, but the sound my car made...well, makes...made buying the pop charger worth every penny. I'm not even talking about the little whistle (which is cool also), its the meaner exaust note that got me.

 

Just put my popcharger on yesterday and love the sound at 4000. Couldn't have made a better choice. I don't get the whistling. oh well i'm still happy with it.

 

I had the JWT Pop Charger laying around for a couple days before I had time to slap it on. After reading reports of lost power, great gains, no gains.. I didn't know what to expect from it. I can't tell any loss of low end power. After 4000 RPMs though, it growls like it's about to rip something in half slaps you with a nice little bonus push.

However, I swear almost every time I've got on the interstate since I installed it the tach goes up to about 4500-5000, (while in 2nd gear) it growls like a **** and the wheels slip like I just shifted from 1st to 2nd really hard and it kicks the VDC on. It never did that before I installed this. Hopefully some new wheels/tires will fix the issue.

Bottom line, I think it's a great product if only for the sound alone.

 

Installed it on mine this past weekend. It's a nice little mod...about an hour to install with the right tools. If you're looking for a radical performance upgrade this isn't it...BUT..for a little over 100 clams you'll get GREAT sound and a bit more power. It was most prominent for me between 3500-5k rpms.
I'd highly recommend it.

 

Yea, actually I never thought I felt too much gains if any. It was my first and only mod I had for a while till I got the exhaust. I just really dig the sound and it looks cool under the hood with it there, oh and it was reletively cheap.
