Injen vs Frankencar w/Apexi

Well, when I save up about $200 im gonna purchase my first Maxima mod (besides my 7000k headlights) but im torn between the Injen and Frankencar.
They are about the same price so what does everyone think of them?

This is probably one of those questions where its been answered a bunch of times but I also wanted to know which one is easier to install?

And I think I still have a powertrain warranty on my Maxima (2k with 40,000 miles on it) does it void the warranty?

Thanks for an input you can give.

go with the Berk intake in the group deal section. it is very simliar to the Frankencar and you wont have to wait a couple of months to get it. Injen looks the best but i would go with the Berk/Frankencar or a true Place Racing Intake for the best overall peformance.

People that have Injen will generally praise Injen. People that have Frankencar will generally praise Frankencar. Frankencar customer service sucks. I lucked out and got mine on a group deal and only had to wait about 4 - 6 weeks. Others have some horror stories. Quality of FC is good, easy to install and I'm satisified. Injen looks really good and people seem to get them quickly. Debate about which intake is better. You'll probably get some other suggestions. Also, read the faqs.

FC is better. Better quality, easy install and looks nice. The Injen will suck water in btw.
