Depending on your mods... Berk is one of the best (if not the best) intake available for a Maxima.

The car was just way too silent before... atleast now it's showing some signs of life...

Not bad for mods in one week... considering i've owned the car for 1 month... lol

Installed the TWM shift adapter yesterday... along with the FSTB, and the berk intake today...

And now... I have no money for a couple months... lol

I got one in the works. So far I got the midpipe done and even made a MAF to Apex-i filter adapter plate. Going to make a heat shield and use a brake duct to bring air from where I used to have the PRCAI.

They don't make them anymore... VERY rare to find them. Only counting intakes you can buy fairly easily.

What d you guys think about the Apex vs K&N? I'm not interested in trading out MAF's every other month, but I've never had a problem with a K&N before. How sensitive is the MAF?

I had the reverse, but can't really blame it on the GAB. MAF down with the GAB, now I have the Berk w/ Apexi and 01 MAF, no problems, but a CEL. I love my Berk, and have more faith with filtration with the Apexi.

Newbie Question..

You have to change the MAF when you get the Berk Intake ?

No it's not necessary unless you damage your MAF in the process of installing it.

I had a berk intake w/apexi filter, now I have a PR CAI and just swapped the monsterflow filter (which is for sale once I clean/re-oil it) that came with it for a K&N RX-2820 and my current setup is my favorite. I have replaced 0 MAFs and I have the original MAF that came with the car, the 2820 not the stronger AM600. The K&n with the PR CAI is as loud as the berk w/apexi but my car feels more responsive with it than any of the other set-ups. K&N > *
