ok, I have a question. Back when I first got my Z I went to Kragen and picked up a K&N Air Filter for around 45 bucks. After I bought it I found out about the pop charger. So, I always wondered but I never asked... would it be worth it to me to get the Pop Charger and chalk up the 45 dollar loss or should I just stick with the K&N Filter?

Get the Pop Charger seriously...Its definitly worth all the money. Sorry to say this w/ other sponsor people around but Intense Motorsports seemed to have the cheapest Pop Charger; it was around $120 that includes shipping. K&N is good but Pop Charger is seriously awsome. + I feel like(I have no way of proving this because I am not gonna get my car dynoed) after installing the pop charger I think my car became a tiny tiny bit quicker. Just a tiny tiny bit. But to tell you the truth I think thats because I am so happy w/ the pop charger.

Just ordered my Pop Charger from Intense Motorsports...can't wait! Totally worth the $109 plus shipping from what I hear everyone saying on here. Gonna be the first mod to my Z. From here, we'll see where we go next.
Thanks to everyone who posted feedback on here with regards to the JWT. Definitely helped in my decision making...been researching it waaaay too much. I'll leave my feedback after it's installed. Thanks again Z-bees...

Unless you are crossing a river, I wouldn't worry about the rain.
+1 totally agree to even get water into the manifold is really rare unless your doing something pretty moronic
you shouldnt have to worry about water issues

i just installed my yesterday. i painted my heatshield black.
there could of been alittle improvement:
1. the aluminum venturis is pretty rough, they should of polish it. i dont know why they didnt. would it make any difference? has anyone polish theirs yet?
2. the heatshield gets pretty hot. would plastic be better to reduce heat?
overall, i am pretty satisfied with it. looks sweet and sounds great. the butt dyno notice alittle difference, revs feels alittle less restrictive.
