Looking for feedback on stillen intakes

I am interested to hear feedback from anyone who has had the stillen long tube intakes on there car.
Looking for how they felt while driving car how hard was install and are you glad you bought them.
Please if you have not had them dont be the peanut gallery

i do not own a stillen intake and thats simple because there not worth it IMO. If anything wait for the injen intake to be realesed but then agian that might not even be worth it. So far every intake out there produce no power or even loss of power.

So wait for injen to be realesed n then wait for feedback if a gain in hp is provided i say get it till then.. stay away from intakes.

There are lots of threads on this. some say it made some say it didn't make. i would wait for computer tuning to become available. Also would like to see if #'s improve with ANY intake after 500 miles or so of driving. personally wouldn't buy any intake as of yet. Still to iffy on power gains.

I have the Stillen short tube. Noticeable improvement in throttle response and it revs more freely. One of the best sounding intakes I have had on any car too. Pleasantly surprised with this one.

I have the stillen long tube intake system on my car. I'm very happy with it the installation was really smooth, the directions were precise and the fitment was dead on. There was a noticeable increase in power and a wicked sound above 3,000 r.p.m.'s. Overall it was a great purchase for me. I would have went with there exhaust but already had the HKS exhaust from my g35. So that saved me some money but there exhaust systems are really nice. Hope this helps in your decision making.

I have the stillen long tubes as well. Install was pretty tight. Tough to get the airbox to fit properly. Other than that pretty easy.

I agree on the sound. It is great. The reason I went with stillen was in my mind at least there is some reasoning as far as blocking cold air from the engine by using the airbox. Although I don't know how much good it actually does. If anything I think using the stock tube with an open air filter inside of an airbox will yield the most gains. The chrome pipes on aftermarket intakes just soak up the heat. I got my stillen at close enough to the price of a Fujita to justify it to me and am completely satisfied. Wasn't expecting huge gains and feel the I most likely got something. Certainly didn't lose anything.
