Stock is best for overall driving.

POP would be best for racing (1/4 mile), or at least in some way/shape/form keep the stock resonator between MAF & TB ..

Key is to maintain the stock resonator, as others have diverse effects on the torque curve, resulting in less power under the curve.

basically don't go with a cold air intake (cai) the one that gets air from inside the fender... although it may get colder air it has adverse effects on power. the pop charger is the best bet look on ebay its just a converter peice also check here

CAI with stock reonater should be just as good as pop charger, but winters coming and you dont want a cai in the rain....just get an adapter and throw a big filter on stock piping.

Then get a POP (Stillen/JWT) Will you be racing a lot? Do you have a VIM? If not, then stock would be best for you since you wont be seeing 5.5k+rpms very often.

This is why some have suggested to go stock.

Hahaha, quoting F&F is just too much!

As it has been suggested, mate any intake with the stock resonator for the best power.

And you seriously think you're a street racer with just one real power mod? Christ, my car is modded out the whazoo and I don't think of it as a racer.

So then if you're worried about me "wasting" posts, what do you think you're doing by quoting the fast and the furious? Can we say "hypacrite"?

Haha... we have a funny one on our hands. Too bad you're the only one that makes it funny. (And maybe your "friend" ) It's retards like you that ruin these forums. So why don't you go watch your little F&F movies and stop wasting threads.

Then go join the honda forums and ask for their opinions. It was an irrelevant question anyway since it's answered in the stickies and/or doing some research yourself.

The answer to the question you asked can be found in the stickys. Intakes are a matter of personal opinion.. I think I gave you a very good explanation of what exaclty is the best... Then again that's my opinion.

We resent people who worship stupid movies like that because it gives the notion that every Maxima owner who adds a modification is a ricer ... The people who belong here, aren't.

Ask a more intersting technical question that has yet to be answered .. then maybe the flames will not fly.

well someone gave me a link and i thank them for that and i dont think im a ricer cause i have a mod or 2. I love racing movies and i like fast and the furious is there somethin wrong with that. I dont go flaming other peoples sigs or stuff like that even if i think its stupid cause its not my business so if the people that flame all the time worried bout them selves more then everybody else then this forum would be better, but NO it cant be like that!

What dimensions are you evaluating it on? Power? Sound? Quality? Ability to distract from lack of mods in the engine bay?
