JWT POP v. Cattman Combo Intake (not the same old ?'s)

JWT POP v. Cattman Combo Intake (not the same old ?'s)
I know this subject has been covered over and over again and I have probably read 80% of these threads. Nevertheless, I still have a couple of questions. I see that nearly all of the fastest Maximas in the 1/4 mile have just the JWT POP so I figure you can't go wrong w/this intake as far as track times go. But, I was wondering if there would be any downsides to this Cattman Combo Intake (a hybrid intake). Would this intake perform just as well as POP as far as in the upper rpms while possibly outperforming it in the low end and maybe sounding better/deeper at the same time? I guess for a 5-speed (like I have) it probably wouldn't help any at the track but what about normal (for me anyway) acceleration when I am shifting around 2500 or so rpms? My guess is that the upper tube is not worth the extra money with the 5-speed but I would like some opinions on this. Thanks for the help.

how exactly does a hybrid works?? I have been trying to decide which intake system to use. I have a 5 spd nad if this hybrid seem like the besty of both worlds I want to learn more.

supposedly the upper piece smoothes out the air flow by replacing the resonator and gives u your low end back ( which is lacking with a regular short stub) without sacrificing the benifits of the pop charger's top end

I'm heading to the track this Sunday. Depending on how many runs I get in, idealy, I'll leave the Stillen/K&N Intake in first 2 runs. Plug in the hybrid intake (a la PR/Cattman) for the next 2 runs. See if there are any differences in track time (doubtful)

Well I have tested it at the track, and CAI seem to be better for me(auto). Hybrid intake seem to be better for highway driving and has more topend power. CAI is better for street and more lowend power. That was the case for me.

cool
I am interested in seeing your results. I am also guessing there will be no differences in track time for a five speed (is that what you have?). I think an auto would be slightly better off with the hybrid. Let us know your times. I'd appreciate it.

I know it has been a while and I may have missed your post, but have you been to the track since then? Thanks...I still have not purchased an intake...I'm on the verge...
