Kinetix 370Z/G37 Velocity Upper Intake Manifolds - Z1 Motorsports

johnnydrama · 06-25-2010, 11:32 AM

I would prolly give 1k for this on looks and an intake sound improvement alone. As long as it doesn't take away any power I think its a great looking product and would love to hear what kind of howl it makes for I'm pretty dissatisfied with the sound of the intake as it is even with my G3s. Hope to get an update soon

I know I am very interested! Though it does look sweet, I myself am looking for the results, so I will wait for updates and make a decision then.

In if there is any gain in performance.

subd the thread, cant wait for results.

I don't see there being any good results to this product, due to the fact that there last product was a complete flop on the 350. It's just one nice polished terd. In which I have a story for with proven results. Read further.

At first I was bought into the hype and bought one. At start my 350 was stock and eventually went FI with a turbonetics kit. Well after the install and tune I only netted 323 whp on a dnyo dynamics. I was very disappointed. Others were getting anywhere from 350 to 370 on this same dyno. So that only brought speculation that it was from the Kinetix intake. Well later I came across a Crawford plenum and swap it out. Went back to the same dyno, same shop and netted 348. So for me enough said. Here are the result before and after. I know there are other small factors to consider from these results but even then it's still shocking to me. But no other mods were added nor was a further tune even added.

Update!
Called the guys at Kinetix.

Still working on some tests. Hp gains are unknown but there having trouble producing hp with the NA motors rather then FI. The FI is producing hp somewhat. The price is 1k. Hope this helps!

dlmartin81 · 07-06-2010, 02:45 PM

hmm...yeah.....this thing seems to be more of a bling mod than anything else.

209Z · 07-06-2010, 03:03 PM

a lot of things these days has been mods for looks and not performance..so you know people will buy it period!

Zsteve · 07-06-2010, 07:30 PM

No engine bling bling for me, thank you. I want performance gains for 1K

Pathetic..don't make power NA, makes very little FI? $1000? Whats the point?
