I'm using the Nismo 2.75" R Tune intakes (top half) and made my own Custom extensions for them also in 2.75" The stillens are 2.5" so mine should theoretically flow better and more air. but I found a weak spot on the Greddy X Pipe, so I am in the process of making a better X Pipe before heading back up to the Dyno.
