What is the BEST intake

Hi

Do you want more top end or bottom end? Anything over the stock air box is more powerful, except some lack of low end. Also whats your price range? I personally like a hybrid "short ram" like stillen with Frankencar ($$$$) or homemade (Home Depot Motorsports) and cheapy air filter. If you dont have fog lights a cold air intake works really well. It really is a preference since the differences are minimal.

I would say give me 200 dollars, I will buy a JWT intake for $100, engrave the word Stillen on it, send it to you, and keep the extra 100 bucks for myself.

Not trying to start anything, but they're pretty much the same thing, and youre only paying an extra $100 for the name.

Stillen is still thinking that they have a monopoly on Maxima parts, they haven't realized there are other companies making much cheaper alternatives...

weapon r Dragon intake with ram air addon is what i have in my max, intakes like $175 and ram air addon is like $65 or so.

heres the link 4 the dyno test on it http://www.weapon-r.com/news3.html

It sounds real good, looks real good, and works real good.

Im not sure if there is a best intake, like 10to1 said anythings better then the stock airbox.
