Default HKS VS Blitz

yo guys, need helps here. I'm looking to buy the intake for my 350Z, but don't know which one to go for. I'm debating between the Biltz SUS and HKS Racing suction....they both look good, but the Blitz is $100 cheaper. I got HKS Dual Ti on the Z, so which one do you think is a better combination.

Anyone here, have these intake systems on their Z? Please share you experience/comments. Thanks....

unless you really want the Name brand dont waste your money....

Injen or JWT pop charger both are the best bang for the buck choice with the money you save you can buy a plenum spacer as well which will give you much better gains together.

In numerous reviews, I read how horrible the filteration is on the HKS kit. I guess you gain little and your engine life is reduced alot. Forgot were exactly it talked about it but the K and N filter smoked it in performance. So JWT prolly the best choice regaurdless of price.

damn, i thought HKS made good stuff ( their exhaust on 350Z gain 11-14whp ). It's a pity their intake sucks....

I, as have many others, used the HKS filters for years from my beater to my 600rwhp Supra and have have no problems. Just make sure that you change your filter elements as recommended. The review foremention is probably the one where the apex filter won...I think it was in a revspeed mag...which many thought was skewed.... Personally, I rather use a dual-layer foam with a sticky film vs a metal mesh for filtration....just my $0.02

Absolutely, thats where I saw it! Yup, I don't know which mag to trust ( paid off by sponsers?) so who knows.
