Default Those of you who has JWT PoP Charger

Guys, I decided to get a pop charger for my 05 z since most of you suggested it. Please post all your problems you had with this intake if you can. Thanks for the help!

No problems what so ever!! Great purchase you will love it. The whistle sound at the bottom of each gear turns into a roar at WOT. Great sound

Aight I got a 05 also and the popcharger is SWEET!!! but there is one down fall though if your reving real high and you put the clutch in and let the RPM fall it will cut off sumtimes. It has happened to me maybe 4 times. I have had it for maybe 6 months. But I def dont regret it!!!

I haven't had the "stalling" issue tha some people report about, but then again, I don't put my car in neutral when I'm going 80, also I love how it really opens the car up. When I open her up, it's soooo loud.

ok, seriously you won't beleive this but the popcharger seriosuly caused engine trolls to shoot out of my exhaust. I know! you are saying 'trolls? WTF?" but they are harmless to YOUR car... but devastating to minivans travelling in close proximity. they are messy as well. they sell a fuel additive that cleans that problem right up. and doubles as a bacne medication.

and it is well known that a pop charger emits the same whistling sound as a 'deer whistle' < the whistle hunters use to attract deer, so do not drive your car through the forest or you might get attacked.

be safe my friend.

Fortunately I live where it doesn't rain very much, but with the Seibon VT hood the driver's side vents are right above the JWT. I feel obligated to open the hood and put a bag over the cone when it does rain and my car is parked. People look at me funny, but I try to keep it as dry as possible- mainly for cleaning's sake. That's my problem with the popcharger...or is it a problem with the hood?...or is it just a problem with me? Hmmmmmmmm.

Guys I know I might be worry too much, but I just want to see if there is any other better choice for the intake...I heard some guy got CAI intake and the water really went into the engine..so I am just being cautious here...

For those of you blew your engine with pop charger, you must went into the forest and a bunch of Deer ran after you. Even though your engine trolls out to the exhaust and didnt scare the Deer away, then you rev over the redline and blew your engine? Is this hypothesis correct? =)
