Injen CAI VS. Stillin Gen 3
I will be picking up an 09 G37xS sedan soon. I don't really want to Mod it too much. I was thinking a nice intake would give me a lot of bang for the buck (a little power and a little sound). I hear a lot about the Injen and Stillen Gen 3. If I don't intend on doing much to my car aside from an intake, witch would be a better choice?
So far it sounds like the Injen is a little easier to install ( I don't know if I will do it my self or not ) And you don’t need to make any changes to the computer.
The Stillen sound like you need to some minor modifications under the hood. Also sounds like you need to make some changes to the car's computer. From what I have read the Stillen gives a little more power and sound. is this correct? When I searched on line, it seems as if there are a bunch of people who swear by Injen CAI and a bunch that swear by Stillen Gen 3. So that tells me they are both good products, But what other info should I use to make my decision???

There are tons of reviews on the Stillen and Injen CAIs. You'll get people telling you different things here like any other thread unless you have specific questions.
What's more important to you, in order: power, sound, ease of installation, quality....etc

the more I read the more I want the Injens. Do you need to wait till the break in period is over before you install them? Thanks for the input!

that is a whole other debate on here people will tell you that a break in period is bogus and others will swear by it. either way, the intakes can be put on right away. the break in period is (in theory) to help the seals in your engine seat properly so that there is no problem with over-wear or leaking in the future. so go ahead and throw those intakes on (I subscribe to Stillens but aliiin said it right, theyre about the same) and get driving!

[COLOR=#333333][FONT=Verdana]One other quick question. I MAY consider the Tech package. I know the sensor for the cruse control is in the bottom of the front bumper. Is there any issue with this and removal of the bumper for the install, and the drivers side intake is approximately right be hind the sensor. Is there anything I should take in to consideration with this?
