Pipe dream, literally. Different sound, more dirt and grit in your engine, zero hp/tq gain. Save your money for better tires, maintenance, etc.

Agreed- Nissan engineering did a fine job with the 350Z CAI design. There are no significant gains to be had by changing it out.

There are gains but not significant until tuned. The ECU will adjust the AFR just enough to squeeze some hp. Any CAI would work, just need to have that filter out of the engine bay.
