Default My new part :)

Man this thing looks sooo cool. Do they make a difference. I have the AAM plenum spacer. Feels the same to me. Some input would be nice.

looks good but you probably lost a few ponies. have you tried to hack your engine cover to fit? think it looks much cleaner with the cover.

kinetix ssv has been vary disapointing from other companies research... you are actually loosing power with that part. the spacer works allot better. that is why kinetics stops making them and went with the new OEM type design.

spacer is still better than the SSV with FI. please prove me wrong with unbiased dyno sheets. not the kinetix dyno sheet that is floating around with the untuned car dyno vs the tuned car dyno.

SSV = Joke/ugly Bling/waste of $$$

benefits to the vehicle:
1) a gain in engine output up to 18 horsepower, an increase in fuel economy by up to four miles per gallon and a 25 foot per pound gain in torque. 2)The nissan throttle body spacer can also increase the overall performance and throttle response

Looks like a cut and paste from the Kinetix site.
