I would tie wrap it, bungee cord it, or whatever in the mean time, thats a lot of weight and stress on the throttle body. Open the hood, have someone start the car for you and mesh the gas while your observing the movement and you will see what I mean!!!

Harder compound that is mainly used for suspension bushings to make handling more "firm." If you were to put a solid mount in there, then the bracket would be bound to snap off of the intake sooner or later. I know of a few people that had that happen with the rubber mount!

Man, make sure you get with Stillen about the rubber vibra mount part, especially if it was missing. I'm sure they'll send you a new one, but like Chern says, definitely get some support in there for the meanwhile. Other than that, nice install man, and welcome to the club! Be sure to keep those hose clamps nice and tight. Mine loosened up a bit for the first few weeks and I had to keep tightening them.

jimmypronet, great setup!
I want to get a CAI and have been doing some reading lately regarding that. I have a few questions:
1. My car is very quiet. And I want it to be at least that way, if not quieter. Does installing a CAI always increase noise?
2. Does the increase in hp by installing a CAI in a 6th gen maxima noticable if I am driving with automatic CVT in normal city streets and highways (and not racing tracks)? If yes, at what speeds?
3. Do I lose any gas mieage by installing a CAI?
Thanks.

2.) Simply said, low end will be compromised a little bit, but it will be made up in the mid-top end.
3.) You will notice your gas mileage go down for the first couple of days or weeks...since you will be doing WOT to hear it!
lol Other than that, you SHOULD notice an increase if you drive like a normal person.I say get it, one of the best bang for buck mods there are. Pair it up with the NWP Intake Manifold Spacers and there's roughly 20 more hp.
There is also a Fujita CAI that is available in a wrinkled black finish to blend in with the engine bay nicely.
good luck,
dan
How so?

I got my NWP Spacer in last week and read the directions thoroughly last night, man that is a serious install there. Going to need a good free weekend to do it, but looking forward to it.

That is the biggest bit of ricer math I've ever heard. You could add all that stuff and then go to the track and the car could be slower than before. Modifying your car for more performance is more than just slapping parts on it. Also crank hp is not impartant... wheel hp is what matters, and our cars are over rated in terms of crank Hp based on actual dynos of whp.

Has anyone tried or heard of anyone else trying to place a peltier cooler or two on their intake to further lower the air temp? Not sure if this would work out well, I guess it could cause moisture/ice to form on the inside of the intake tube or draw to much power from the alternator.... Probably to easy of a solution to work out well.
