Yep function over fashion for my money on something like this.

ANMVQ · 11-02-2015, 12:55 PM

if it makes more than the Z1 then I'd pay more than what the M370 cost($600), but not much more. Yes there is "someone" making 70MM TB's for us haven't heard who tho;/

Elmo370z · 11-02-2015, 02:16 PM

Id pay much more. I like to see the manifold bolted up 1slow370z car and dyno tested. I want to see if the manifold paired up with a nice cam to see if it makes power past 7,500 rpms.

Elmo370z · 11-02-2015, 02:18 PM

I hope this manifold comes out, so i can move forward with my build and start saving.

Yea but wont we need a dry sump, Thought 7800 was the max

FPenvy · 11-02-2015, 02:47 PM

EZDZ if they need more Z's for testing i'm right in the area as well.

edo-san · 11-02-2015, 02:54 PM

Carbon; 25 hp gain; bolt on/no mods to strut brace option; high/smooth flow TBs (similar to 'Mines').

bullitt5897 · 11-02-2015, 03:08 PM

I would like to see a long runner design with the ability to run primary and secondary injectors (secondary injectors in the runners like the GTR). I would also like to see 70mm throttle body ends to allow for 09 maxima TBodies. Carbon is nice but not needed.

A quality cast part or CNC billet aluminum. Larger collector tanks like the GTR greedy design. Internal baffles or Tank design (hence the Greddy example) to direct airflow evenly across the bank. Follow the example of boost logic with their gentle sloping oversized runners to allow for massive airflow.

Price wise if you stay $1500 and below you will sell like hotcakes to NA and FI crowds. From $1500 to $2k and you will sell a good bit of units mainly to FI guys. Between $2-3k you will only get the ballers. Above $3k and only a handful will buy if any.

The car has a dry sump, revs to 8200 rpms i believe

2015nismo · 11-02-2015, 04:46 PM

For a 20-25 hp gain (on top of other mods) I'd be willing to shell out between $1,000 and $1,500.

It'd also depend on how long it takes/how fast it will ship. I'm kinda impatient and would be willing to spend a bit more to get it fast.

Megan370z · 11-02-2015, 04:58 PM

btw guys for another time..
the Maxima 09+ are 75mm not 70.
the Vq35DE use a single 70mm and mod theres for the maxima TB.

phunk · 11-02-2015, 08:14 PM

Just for reference, the boost logic manifold for the GT-R is $4500.

This community wants something for far less than half the price, for an engine that is more difficult to engineer the part for, that will make 25hp all motor, without having to spin the engine more than a couple hundred RPM higher.

I see this working out well

A cast manifold can be had for far less than they portray at boost logic. I priced out a design already and granted it was overseas foundry doing the work but it can be done with decent quality. As far as the n/a gains I am with you it's a tall ask... Would love to see were you got with the current designs.
