I havent seen that on a maxi yet so ill be unique =P
seen it done already, there is a car that posted on here with pretty much that setup.
for KNOWING everything there is to know about intakes and what it could do for your car, you sure don't know anything at all about, well anything related to a maxima so your advice for staying stock = lol...
I wonder is caesar would have run his 13.9 with everything he has done - the intake. doubt it.

About the 3" cone filter. Obviously you havnt searched anywhere and are just asking. You have k&n cones at the nearest auto store...

I just got a Stillen popcharger intake on my car and believe it or not it really KILLS the low end. I know people say it's a slight drop in low end power, but beleive me it's HUGE!!!. i like the the SLIGHT high end power, but honestly Im thinking of going back to stock already. Don't get a popcharger or short ram. I heard CAI don't take away to much low end and adds just as much high end, but you would have to ask the ones that have had expereince with them. The only real mod I got and LOVE TO DEATH is my budget Y-pipe, get a y-pipe first and you'll LOVE IT I gaurantee it.......

Actually yeah, a tiny bit, you get kind of a small growl when you punch it..it's nice, nothing like the popcharger. You'll like it..Makes me want to get a full exhaust to get the full sound. I probably be selling my stillen intake in about 2 weeks, it's brand spanking new, if your interested in seeing for yourself. It'll be up un the classifieds...

The stone racing headers, and Y-pipe are actually not bad for the money. I have it installed for about 3 months now and in all honnesty I did have to clean up the welds inside the headers a little but everything fit perfectly and I love the tone.

no offense dude, but you sound like an F*cking idiot. I would strongly suggest that you just stop talking, because obviously you dont really want to know anything and when you get answers, you dont make any progress...so stop wasting bandwidth and asking dead end questions.

I'm all in for the factory box with K&N pannel filter but, minus the snorkus that is attached to the factory box..
Y-pipe from budge is still around.. wow I bet they made tons of money.. Everyone from the past said they were best bang for the buck for HP..
What you guys use for Fuel management these days?

Infowire, have you considered some suspension mods? A rear sway bar and front strut bar aren't too expensive and are supposed to really improve the car's handling, particularly when coupled with some springs/struts. I just picked up my Max and am planning on redoing the suspension before I worry too much about adding hp, except I probably will pick up one of those budget Y-pipes soon...

Warp speed makes them for our car, sometimes they sell there y pipes on eBay
I bought one of those intakes just to make the engine bay pretty, but they DO NOT add HP or any noticeable MPG, they just make noise and look pretty, you actually loose low end torq I believe
FYI a lot of people like to yell at N00bs on the org so when u make a thread be ready to take some of there comments lightly
and SAFCII is prob the best for A/F

explain to me why a midpipe off of ebay is not JUST as good as a frankencar midpipe. notice i did not say a k&n filter vs. a bomz filter. there are some obvious differences there.
thats like saying generic ibuprofin doesnt work just as well as advil. some things are purely marketing.
you sometimes get what you pay for.
