Bosch is OEM and is what is normally cheapest. Its almost unaffordable to get one that is not remanufactured.

The carbonio is nice most people say stick with the stock airbox but they just get caught up in the hype of intakes dont do anything! At night you really can feel the throttle response.Until i see a dyno saying other i see nothing wrong with buying the intake.

it's got to be the MAF sensor. I here about this problem all the time when switching intakes. Even on my friends 98 maxima se. His did the same thing and this was the problem.
