Keep the half of the lower air box and snorkel, keep the resonator and sit your popcharger right in the lower air box.

If I could go back and do it over I'd ditch my shiny nice injen cai for MEVI (didn't know about it when i got intake) though i'm quite happy with my injen so i'm not complaining too much

Keep your stock one and just cut out the right fender side, and the front of the lower air-box. It's better than any intake out for the maxima...

It's not that the intakes for the maxima aren't any good, it's just that no matter how well your filter element breaths, the engine will only be able to take in so much air with the USIM. That's the bottleneck.
