That's the best suggestion yet actually. (Assuming you don't own one.)

Other than that I vote Injen CAI instead of short ram. IMO, why do an intake that is less effective than the stock unit?

It sure is, but it's rather easy to do if you take your time. Removing the bumper is not hard. Plus, the reservoir they give you to replace the factory windshield wiper reservoir is still plenty large.

I'm very skeptical about intakes. ESP Short Rams. Once you take out the factory Intake system, you will see how much R&D actually went into making it. They only way I see possible to make more power than the stock unit is draw in colder air, period. Of all the intakes out for the G37, the INJEN CAI is the only one that I could find consistently made at least some power. I don't count the manufactures dyno sheets. I try to look at unbiased, same day dyno's. Before and after. After reading every possible thread on Intakes for the G37, I made the choice for the Injen CAI.

After installation, I noticed better throttle response, slightly better midrange and topend pull. And, of course the awesome sound above 6K.
