if you are just wanting sound then go with the pop charger...people have had better gains with a drop in filter

You mention better, but give no criteria as to what better means.

Short or long?
Ease of installation?
Location of filter?

JWT was an easy install and sounds pretty cool. As far as gains go I wouldn't really expect much if anything from it, I'm happy with my decision though.

+1 easy install and sounds great.

I did notice a little after 4K, nothing huge but noticed a little bit better top end.

+1 Actually, the top end does feel a little more open after installation.

I had the AEM-basically a Nismo without the stupid valve for the water, and a Pop-charger. On MY car with MY mods at the time the Pop-charger provided way better throttle response and 10whp over the Nismo with the use of a Crawford plenum....its cheaper, its easier to clean, Id put a vote in for the PC

I just installed the Nismo CAI (Christmas present). It was fairly simple to install and took about 1 hour.

I like it a lot. It sounds good and although I can't really confirm HP gains I can say I noticed an immediate improvement in throttle response. No regrets.
