Default 08 350Z Air Intake Help

Hey guys I have an 08 350z and I was lookin to get an Air Intake, but all the intakes I find are like $300-$400. I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any cheaper ones out there or if someone is selling a dual intake for cheap.

A $20,000 car deserves a $600 intake.

Just leave it alone,its an intake,it doesnt add HP,Injen Just adds uo top,but nothing in the mid range, but if you want it just for noise,get Fujitas, They Are 279$ shipped

Members here claimed they lost HP because of the Fujitas,

its all Bull**** its a filter,more noise is all you get.

- best results.

Stock airbox with KN performs better than any aftermarket intake (ram/cold)

I herd you could just take the stock air boxes off and cover the tubes with pantyhoes.
If it looks like this you did it right.

honestly though... dont mod if your looking for cheap alternatives its just a waste.

injens or K&N drop ins...yes injens are pricey but keep looking around the boards and you will find a deal...but you go cheap and you will pay for it later......you gotta pay to play.
