So whether they work or not this is extremely flawed logic.
Manufacturers would install them if the cost to do so outweighed a cost it was solving.
And cost would be developing a system that held much more oil than aftermarket ones do. Which involves not only the cost of hardware x vehicles...
South Jersey. Daily Driver. Pilot Sport 4S.
Fine in the cold. The Pilots are much better than the stock tires on basically all situations.
Just had a big storm here and still getting around OK. Just have to be careful in snowy/icy patches.
Nothing noticeable at all. I think it would require some particularly extreme conditions for there to be a noticeable issue directly caused by the intakes.
And as this is my daily driver i wouldnt imagine it will ever be near such conditions.
Yea no one can answer this but you. There is no right or better answer.
My Z is my daily and an MT. I got it specifically because i wanted another MT daily. I actually hate AT for daily because it makes driving less engaging so id just be bored more often.
But that doesn't mean anything is...
If you are on stock DPs i dont think anything can really make this car loud.
I have the AWE touring and it has a nice little rumble down low but everything else gets kinda pinched off by the 4 cats.
I'm still trying to find a place to install my LDPs because while i dont want to be obnoxious...
Uh oh. We got the keyboard racers! Watch out! Lol
But for real all 3 options just offer a different set of fearures and amenities that will appeal to different people's needs. Trying to sell any one as just the only right choice is..
Well you're either living in a bubble or convincing yourself...
I don't think it was "why are you driving this car so much" kinda question.
More just surprised at the amount of driving overall as that is quite a lot regardless of vehicle!
Im on the other end of that spectrum for example. Mine is not a garage queen... it's my daily driver and only car i...
Does it always do this?
I know mine very occasionally does a bizarre blip from 3-4 for some reason. But that's only sometimes and the only oddity like that i can think of.
The Mishimoto kit has all hardware for installs specific for the Z with all mounting brackets, pre-sized hoses and instructions.
At the very least with that one you will want to get better hoses as well. So yea, if you are ok figuring out your own mounting and hoses it should be ok based on...
Definitely dont do full DP without a tune.
I'd probably not do lowers without a tune either due to the potential boost spikes but that's just me.
I know some folks do anyway but for example even Z1 said they'd give me a pretune to use with just lowers to make sure it doesn't spike too much...
In NJ so there are definitely laws about things that wont pass inspections.
But outside of inspections it never comes up. You arent gonna get under hood cop checks or anything like that.
And even the inspections are usually basic enough that as long as you arent throwing codes and can pass the...
I just always park super far away.
Accidents can happen. So just gotta lower the odds!
Plus it means you get some extra steps in everyday. Always a good bonus.
