Default 35th Anniv. Intake revisions!

I just read in SCC that they tweaked the 350z intake to get more HP out of the 350. Does anyone know exactly what they did and if we can transfer that to our regular 350s?

I think it's revised timing and pistons.

They probably used the S1 Intake which is a bigger MAF and bigger Air Inlet Tube.

No, they specifically talked about minor revisions to the intake itself.

I have been looking all over for the MAF and intake pipe. Can you get them? If so how much?

Probably just have to wait a little longer for the cars to get out on the market. Then you'll be able to buy those parts from your dealer.

I think the power is from a 7000 rpm redline.

I second that opinion, but you guys should also see there is a loss in overall peak torque

This engine revs to 7000 rpm. Nissan probably accomplished this by chaning the cams. That would mean more HP and Torque on the higher rpms than the current Z has even though the peak torque is lower.

The only thing that Nissan did was make the intake manifold runners shorter, which resulted in the increase of horse power and higher redline. Doing so also resulted in the lose of torque in the bottom end.

they also changed out the pistons...and added CVTC to the exhaust side of the valvetrain and I believe changed out the cams.
