I couldn't imagine dealing with the crap you put up with out there. Emissions testing, sky high real estate prices, hippies, democrats... sounds like a hell on earth. When I had a Z I bought an Injen intake and converted it to a short Ram intake. You really don't get any power gains from an intake on a 350z. Just meaner sound.
You crack me up.

I got an Injen which i am really happy with. All intakes are about the same gains its just a matter of price of preference. Other mods i would probely suggest for the Z would be test pipes. It all depends how much u want to spend but that is what i started of with.

- Performance gains are up to par with any other intake on the market
- Easy to maintain w/ the short ram setup.
- No fear of hydrolocking
- Best part...it has a CARB# for us guys in CA
