GOT ME A NISMO!
GOT ME A NISMO!
Hey Everyone!
I am proud to say that I have just purchased me a NISMO Cold Air Intake. Please anyone give me any pointers or tips onto What I should do or not to with the install.
And if you guys have ANY positive or negative feedback with this Intake let me know.
All is open!
THANKS!!!

I went with the Nismo, and I'm surprised at how quiet it is. I put a Fujita on my wife's 07 Altima, and that thing was loud. The Nismo on the other hand, pretty much sounds like stock to me. It gives a little growl if you get on it, but nothing like the Fujita. I'm assuming it is due to the longer intake piping.

I know when you install the Nismo as a full CAI as opposed to a short ram, you should get a better HP gain, does anybody have a comparison on the two ways of doing it?
I drive my car for work and have to often take clients... quiet is better for me, but still like the HP gains!!!

But your co-workers/clients would love the growl of the Fujita!!!
To be quite honest, people want to believe that because they just dropped $180-250 on a CAI, that it is going to produce "noticeable" horsepower gains...this is just not true. Now if you do true tuning and manage the ECU, then yes you can see some gains. I honestly like the sound and look. Take a before and after dyno and see for yourself.
Quick update.
I had purchased my Nismo Intake online and never recieved it. So I contacted seller and he blamed in on Nissan
. Soo I had a post earlier "Which Would You Buy" and was asking wether to get a CAI or LED Tails. So I'm gonna get the tails now. And try the CAI again later.
NISMO = FAIL
LED TAILS = if I buy from ezconcepts.com

I also have a Nismo intake. Now my next question would be, has anyone ever heard of plenum spacers installed on the maxima engine? Now what about a throtle body spacer? Would either one make significant gains in power?
