Zach.....thanks for all your help man!

 

Mine is in hand!!!

If you believe you are in the 1st shipment, please PM Robert (LSDUNIQUE) and ask him whats up.

ZNitro said he received his already and I didnt even have him on my list so there may have been others that paid in the 1st 8 that did not inform me of their paying.

 

Any idea if mine shipped out? Or am I on the second shipment.
Thanks

 

Well, I'm almost officially SSV enabled. Got to work on it about 7:30pm and finished (mostly) 2 hrs later taking my time.

For the record, I was the lucky one who didn't receive instructions. This didn't slow me down much. The install is pretty intuitive. I called Kinetix to ensure I had all the parts and to ask about a particular connector. Other than that I really had no issues.

Pics tomorrow. I haven't cranked the car yet because I have one loose vacuum fitting. Basically, this was run into the front of my Crawford plenum to provide vacuum for the Vortech kit. To run it on the Kinetix, I'll need to utilize the additional fitting which comes plugged from Kinetix. I'd be finished now, but I could not get to a parts store before they closed. So, i'll be wrapping it up first thing in the morning.

So, the mcduck score card on the Kinetix plenum...
Looks = 10!
Fit & quality = 10!
Install = 8 (probably a 10 with the instructions... there's only one or two tricky parts and I bet they mention them)
Performance = ??? (will post my impressions once I get the vacuum line finished and can drive the car again)

Kudos to Kinetix for getting me an overnight shipment so I could get this piece on for ZDayZ!

 

Mcduck, I talked with you on the phone earlier about that fitting.

Sorry about the lack of instructions!!, I am sure the rest had the install tips.

We dont have detailed instructions with pics yet, but the install tip sheet is definately helpful and the install is VERY straightforward.

It is actually much easier to install than the factory manifold, and is much easier to service different areas of the engine.

We shipped the first batch out yesterday/today

I am sure you all wont be dissapointed

 

Can you tell me if the tracking # I got included my camber arms along with the intake?
Its under susan norton g352nv

 

very quick update as I'm trying to get ready to depart for ZDayZ. Drove the car today with the new IM on. Adding the vacuum line was a snap.

Please note these remarks are subjective. I have done no power testing of any sort. The car definitely sounds different. I'd say the motor has a throatier sound with the Kinetix IM vs the Crawford Plenum I took off. It still not racecar-like, but definitely more grunt when you rev.

As for acceleration, my feeling is that it is quicker in the upper RPM range. I cannot prove this imperically at this time, but I did notice the revs seem to come up faster when you get past 4000rpm. Faster revs should = faster acceleration. Will analyze it more over the weekend as I run the Dragon.

Sorry, no pics yet. Will post some when I get back.

hats off to Kinetix, IMO this piece is top notch all around and well worth the wait.

 

......patiently waiting peaking through the blinds.....

 

Does it require an ECU reflash?

 

Still no tracing info for me...

 

Same here!

 

Contact Robert and ask him whats up. There may have been some people who paid that did not tell me they did so that were in the 1st 8. I dont really know.

 

I got mine yesterday and only had time to do a quick inspection. Overall it looks very well made but, I did find 2 serious problems with mine that had they not been caught, could have potentially damaged the motor. The hole where the bung is welded into the tube where the throttle body mounts had a very large metal burr inside the intake that was just hanging ready to fall off. Had this made it into the engine, it could have caused some serious scratches in the cylinders. There is another metal burr, not quite as large on the inner edge of the throttle body mounting flange. I would suggest that everyone look these over before you install them. I'll post pics tonight to show you what I mean.

 

Thanks for the heads up!
cquence 350 [Z] got any info yet?
anyone else waiting for tracking info?
I'll call Robert later and get the scoop.

 

no info yet! I was 4th on the list but haven't recieved any word
