I was looking into get a little more sporty with my 2011 maxima and I was looking at intakes , does anyone know or suggest if the intake is worth it or if they're is any other different ways in gaining a little more action ?

Also I was looking into getting some coilovers but all of the street or the area I'm always in is filled with manholes and potholes and I wasn't thinking that it was a good idea , plus I am already sitting on the eibach pro kit springs.

You won't get any noticeable gains from an intake, if anything it will hurt performance in the low RPM ranges. If you want a more aggressive intake note, an aftermarket intake will get you there.

Stick with the Eibachs if you want a more comfortable ride.

You can get an aftermarket intake and it will sound good, but it will ruin performance. Hot air maketh better performance not.

Yeah an intake is nothing but sound and the heat soak will slow your car down, the y pipe will increase your power by 10-15 but for power you gotta sink some money into her. How do you like your springs, it seems like coilovers come with some tweaking. I want to put 20"s on my car and eibachs, that should fill the well pretty good.

20s with Eibach springs fills the well perfectly. Looks great I couldn't be happier. Don't worry about the write ups that I'm assuming will follow this about how 20s kill the performance mileage and everything else. It's nonsense. The little it may decrease isn't even worth mentioning. This is not a true sports car nor a hyper miler. If one is worried about mileage or a tenth of a second, clearly u own the wrong car then for your expectations. And those who say the handling is safrificed, get real it isn't at all. I do have a rear sway bar too tho.
And true that that the intake will slow the car a little, but it sounds cool. And looks good.

Cool thank ya, I wanted to go with bc coilovers but dont want to worry about scraping or any maintenance, I have never had any of my cars lowered so it would be all new to me also.
