Talking Best Sounding Intake ???

Any recommendations on the best sounding intake to install on the Z?? I've been looking at the Injen CAI and the JWT Pop Charger. Looking mainly at getting some more noise on my Z, less interested in the HP gains. Which do you recommend? Which has the sweeter sound and do both kick in throughout rpm scale ?

JWT Pop Charger sounds great! It has a pleasant whistle. Haven't heard the Injen CAI though!

This thread reminds me of threads over on an evo forum over the debate about BOVs. It seems like people are just paying for expensive noise makers that dont give you much more bhp. I'm not gonna hate though, I'll probobly be buying one also haha

JWT Pop Charger and K&N Typhoon both sound very simlar...

loudest intakes IMHO especially with the filter so close to the cabin.

Actually this intake looks and sounds pretty nice.Notice where the mass-air sensor is located?.It makes for a clean installation without alot of hoses and clutter.

It also cost about twice as much as the Injen and 4 times as much as the JWT. Any dyno charts or videos?

The K&N sounds great and looks really good too. I have the Injen CAI and it didn't sound that good until I made it a short ram. It mostly has to do with how close it is to you.

It's all a matter of what you like best. Listen and ask around from physical people who have it. Go look at both Injen and JWT and see which is your prefernece ... I did ..
