People, like myself, don't like the front mounted Intake system because it imitates something most of us don't have...boost. It appears to look like a FMIC. It'll probably perform as anyother CAI but you'll have alot more crap stuck to it(i know I would).

It's not worth it because...

1) The extra tubing will probably negate much of the gain, it's very tight in the Maxima's engine bay as it is.

2) You'll be laughed at.

Just go with the OSCAI or real CAI. I wouldn't advise you to get the popcharger because you have an automatic... you won't feel much gains as the car is usually in the lower rev range.

Don't fake the funk. If you appear to have a FMIC, you had better have a turbo stuck to it.
