PRM kit - dyno results
I just got the results on my car with the PRM kit on it. Everything went very well. I've attatched the data for your viewing pleasure.

whats the point of the PRM kit . .it's still in the engine bay sucking up heated air. Cold air Intakes to me. .are much more worth it! EX. Injen!
Can't really go wrong with CAI unless your one of them people who decide to go for a drive in a hurricane storm,and loves to RWD it through huge puddles!!!!
need i say more. . .

that dyno chart looks odd... where's the rmp? I've never seen one with so little info... what type of dyno is it? what shop?
The other thread regarding this product gave plenty of opportunity for the OP to provide viable info to determine it's worth... however I haven't seen anything remotely close to convincing me it's worth considering... The question about cleaning wasn't even answered... and IMO the question about performance is still unanswered.

interesting dyno's OP, waiting for the dyno experts to come verify that nothing is funky. youre just a little too new for me to trust you. also what year is your Z? and how many miles were on the filter in the stock unit? was it a stock filter? why does the after dyno continue on for another 500 RPM? A/F ratios? gotta give more info/details for us to believe this dyno comparison is legit. for all we know you could be an PRM employee.

well, when you're driving down the road, air is blowing through the engine bay. it may be a few degrees hotter then ambient temps but not that much. also, on they dyno the hood is popped and their's fans in front of the car blowing cold air in the engine bay.
