Works as advertised.
Power band feels extended over stock.

BUT, Z1 has a similar product for a lot less.
Z1 VQ37 Intake Plenum
If this was out when I was I got my M370 I would have gotten the Z1 instead.
Mainly due to price, $610 ($585 for me) vs $295.
The M370 might be better but the price difference is dramatic.

FYI
The M370 is a modified VQ35HR manifold.
The Z1 manifold looks like a modified VQ37VHR manifold.

It would be interesting to do a side by side dyno comparison.

I noticed this last night on their website. I'm tempted to do this and the headers. I think I'd be done with the motor (after a tune of course) at this point. The car is fast enough on track already.

Sorry about your schedule change again, bro! But it'll be ******* great to drive your car see you before you head out!

Alright. So I think because I'm going to be really busy for the next five weeks or so after this little cruise and I know since we'll likely be cruising down in the VB area I'm not sure if everyone will want to drive to NN for a cigar. I am offering up my place as a destination after dinner for the aforementioned cigars. It would be a nice send off to this apartment as I should be closing on my new place on Monday. Then there will be, of course, a house warming party at my new place once I get back from Cali.

Let me know who is down for the post-dinner cigar. (If you don't smoke you can still come and hang out)

So meet up Sunday at 4, idk where is good for everyone to meet up or have dinner, but I'm down for anywhere. Hayashi does have other things like a normal Japanese place but the sushi is pretty great. Also unsure of where to cruise, I live in the Hampton area. I'm free to cigars at my place as well, or we can go up to Johns place, I'm open to either one.

I'm pretty flexible on anything lol.

Sounds good!
Looks like unstoring it is a pretty difficult task!

Got to swap the wheels and pull the battery tender connector.
Since I have the tools it won't take too long.
I put the OEM wheels on for storing purposes.

Don't know if you saw my earlier posts on that topic but I am trying to put something together for that kind of cruise to Skyline before the weather turns. I think it'll be first/second week of October. Not sure. My work schedule keeps getting jammed full of ****.
