Well, we were so surprised by the first results that showed the Top Secret intake won, that as soon as the technician got back to the dealership (approximately 30 minutes of a mix of stop-n-go and freeway driving) we asked him to turn around and go back to run the test again to confirm. That's an hour of driving and plenty of heat before a second set of runs that confirmed the initial findings -- in 10 degrees warmer ambient conditions, too!

So, we're pretty satisfied with the validity of our experiment and hope all on the forum enjoyed this debate and findings as much as we did.

Here are a few more pics. The first is one final look at the car before the Amuse kit goes on. The full set from yesterday are at:

We invite everyone to become a fan on facebook and to participate in this build through the discussions and debates. We really do value all the insights we get from this great Z community. Keep 'em coming!

Looks like they finally got those Amuse boxes open over at Baker-Jackson Nissan.

They have a couple more on the facebook page. No shots of the back yet, though!

Now that is one bad Z. Love the side bottom stripes. Can't wait to see more of this car.
