Good to know, but seriously, what intake should I get?

Also, my inability to find it through search, just curious, what kinds of custom things are people doing with the stock gauges on the 05 Z? I mean, can you can the gauges, what are the size, what are my options? If just for a simple reply, what are the gauges above the CD player referred to as?

That's what I've been reading, but what about the "stalling" issue at high speeds or shifting in to neutral (I have no idea what shifting in to neutral means, I mean, don't we all have to shift in to neutral to get to the next gear? or is that for the AT guys? If so, why the hell are they shifting in to neutral?)

don't waste your money on a JWT intake, just get a K&N panel filter for the stock air box. Its proven to be just as good if not better than the JWT popcharger. However, the 1WHP increase isn't that noticable, therefore I'd simply save up for some suspension mods.

It's not the horsepower that I am looking for, I mean I bought a 350Z to increase the horsepower on my civic. I just like the intake sound and I know I won't get that with a panel filter

some people get to really high speeds and then shift to neutral and let the car coast back down to normal speeds instead of staying in gear... Most CAI's will make the engine stall when this is done it just all depends how fast and what RPM you have to be at b4 you will notice it...

see, this is completely foreign soil to me because my civic was incapable of reaching really high speeds

I have an AEM intake on mine. Not sure if there is any HP increase but it sure sounds good when I throw the fire to it

If all you want is the SOUND and dont care about power then just get whichever one looks the best to YOU

Cheapest is JWT, but like Ahn said a filter will give you the same POWER
