Default pop charger information?

well this is a noob question, i searched all the stuff in the forum about pop charger but i couldnt get what i wanted to know.

what are the CONS about the pop charger, according to the "popular questions," it says that the pop charger stalls at high speeds?, what does that mean.
and what other CONS might there be.

i know the PROS, such as around 6.5hp gain, and a really nice sound.

thanks a lot.

it says on the TOP 100 MOST ASKED QUESTIONS,

this quoted from there


"JWT popcharger:

pro: can suck higher volume of air compared to stock

con: sucks hot air from engine bay and heat shield does not really help all that much in preventing it from sucking hot air. People have reported a problem stalling when travelling at high speeds and putting the car in neutral with this intake. "

I have it and has never EVER stalled thats BS, sounds great. You
get kind of a whistling sound when around 3.5 to 4 RPMS, like a mini
turbo sounds neat. The JWT and most other intakes won't produce vast amts of power, look at NISMO it states 5. something horsepower. Its cheap to, try it you wont be dissapointed!

This is a mis-quote . . . drivers who put their cars on neutral while traveling at high speeds have experienced stalling if they have a popcharger. The question is -- why would anyone shift to neutral while driving at a high rate of speed? You're are idiot if you do this and your car stalls.

Just get it man, it is completely worth it. Just stay away from putting the car in neutral if your going above 55mph. Which I’m sure you and most people don’t and that is why this isn’t something to worry about.

Zs already have Z Tubes. People purchase Z tubes for their G35s.

I just purchased my Pop-charger over the Christmas weekend. I think its well worth the price. It sounds badass and adds 6+ horsepower. I have an 06 my brother has an 04 and they sound a little different. If you have problems with it stalling out at high speeds I think something else is wrong, its not the pop-charger. My brother (Zcarbandit) and I hit 135mph in his Z and nothing happened.
