Should I buy the Frankencar Intake and sell my Injen?

Everyone has been saying how good the Frankencar is. It's making me wonder if I should have bought that instead of the Injen. Should I sell the Injen and get the Frankencar?

Kloogy, I know you think it's a good idea.

No. You have a CAI. Well, kinda. The Frankencar is a WAI. Keep the Injen. Or I will trade you.

Trade it!!! I've had both and the Frankencar winds hands down over the Injen. My two cents.

Diddo. You'll get torque gains with the Injen, but when you hit 120 mph, You wont pull like with a FrankenCar.

Yeah... because EVERYONE is out there driving 120 mph, right?

If you decide to do it, you'd better order the Frankencar NOW, long before you try to sell the Injen. Otherwise you're going back to stock for A WHILE (long wait for delivery)!

Keep the Injen. Everyone here seems to be down on them because they are a big company, and their owner isn't a part of the .org. I mean, it's great to support your homies, but I can't put too much confidence into a guy who is so ****ed off at Nissan that he said, in another thread, that the Max is "gone" when he gets it out of the shop. http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....66#post1681166

According to eveything you'll read here, your car will sound louder and harsher w/ Frankencar, and you MIGHT notice minimal gains over the Injen.
