Thanks for the help? Lol I know there isn't a "best" intake, I'm not asking that. I'm asking what the community thinks is the most affordable and puts out a good amount of hp, that's all.

First of all, what motor do you have. Second of all, what do you consider affordable. Last, how much noise do you want.

Do lots of research.

Everybody's interpretation of "affordable" varies, as does "good". You can spend $1500 and gain 5-10 HP. Can you afford that? Can you really feel 10HP difference from a 300 HP engine? That's why I said "do lots of research" because there is no simple answer.


In addition to the Top 100 Questions thread, you probably ought to read these too..

That's what happens when you ask a question that's been asked hundreds of times. You got off easy buddy.

I know that's its been answered, but instead of wasting time, telling me what to do, what other threads to read, just tell me haha. Idk that's my opinion, but anyways. Enough about talking about nothing. Back to the main reason I posted this thread. Anyone have any intakes and exhaust systems they suggest?

If you can't spend a bit of time researching mods for your Z, then you don't deserve to have a Z in the first place, lazy fawk.

Just run drier tubing though both of your headlamps. Just make sure you seal them off nicely, you dont want headlight fluid dripping on your engine, it dissolves metal.
