Popchargers are around 110-130 for just a filter. Is it really worth it? and is someone willing to sell theirs?

 

if you think its worth paying that much for some just improved sound (I do) then get it. I got it used from the classified section, you should check it out.

 

To buy things new that is the price you'll pay. I sold mine for $85 shipped. From time to time, you will find it for sale anywhere from $65 - $90 used.

From a technical standpoint, its good for 5RWHP, which is not a lot. I think a lot of it has to do with the stock filter/design being so damn good in the first place.

As someone has already said, buy it for a little gain, sound and looks. You won't regret it even at $100-$110.

It boggles the human mind.

 

Its been dyno proven at 6.5+ rwhp.

 

There are a few members reporting their cars shut off at random after installing a pop charger.

 

David is right. Most people who have the pocharger are happy with it. My car has never stalled with it on, but I own a 5AT (installed JAN06). It does sound better, does help a little power-wise (it all adds up), and is easy to maintain. I think it's a good first mod if you are going NA. It's also one of the cheapest unless you're going to buy one of those turbonators:-) The next cheapest thing would be a plenum spacer. Also you could spend the same, give or take on grounding wires. Go ahead and post a question on that and see what kind of response you get, lol.

 

I highly recommend it. Best $100 I spent. Helped out with my other mods.

 

I think it's the first mod a Z driver should do. It's an easy DIY install and you do feel and hear the difference immediately.

 

+1..cars sounds bad *** at WOT.

 

+1
i just installed mine on friday, and recomend it for the sound primarily, you do feel a little difference going from a dirty stock air filter to a fresh popcharger. I love it

 

I can't beleive everyone is talking about the sound?!?! The power gains are there! The popcharger is a supporting mod. When you add it with other mods you'll fell the power gains. You can't fell 5whp but you can fell 20whp. The Popocharger, imo, is a must for N/A Modding.

 

i was trying to debate if the difference i felt was just in my head or not.

 

what does it sound like exactly? makes your exhaust louder?

 

you can hear the intake sucking in air for one, and @ wot it sounds deep and aggressive. the exhaust is louder due to the increase in flow. Sounds great

 

Can't beleive we're now promoting the PopCharger sound over performance.

 

i never said thatthe performance wasn't there, i definetly felt a difference

 

Not just saying you but everyone. Come'on guys, if you bought they car just for sound you're missing the point of driving/oweing a Z car.

 

does it increase or decrease gas mileage?

 

Increase.
