Kinetix (SSV) Intake Manifold + APS TT/ST ???
I've already seen a few Vortech setups with this IM but I'm just curious if anyone is going to run or is running the new Kinetix SSV IM with their APS TT/ST setup? Please post your pics, numbers, & impressions here.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Sorry, no numbers this week because I have not received mine yet and I am leaving for Florida this evening.

So is anyone else planning or has this setup? Hard to believe there is only 1 person just doing this. Please post.

I am having the APS TT and Kinetix SSV IM installed later this month. I will also be doing dynos comparing the Kinetix with the Crawford Cast Plenum. Unfortunately, I may not have results until July.

I have to install my new KJR crank pulley anyway. I'm going to start slowly with my engine build & get all the little bolt-ons first before I jump into getting the APS kit. I'm still ify until they get a CARB# & I'm still not sure if I should go the TT or ST route. I'm trying to get some impressions on this setup since I'm looking at this (just because it looks so dayum nice) or the APS Plenum which I'm also looking into purchasing from a member when it comes in (he has one of the first 25 plenums available).

Ya... Rob (ZCarGarage) installed mine on his APS TT. The results were not as good as previously reported. I think they saw about a 15 HP lift. The nice thing is there was no loss of torque. This was a straight swap with the stock plenum. No tuning was performed after the Kinetix SSV IM was installed. Easy install and a slight change in sound.

I am pleased to hear numbers like that.
supercharged cars and turbo cars will react differently, but being able to get good gains with zero tuning and zero torque loss is great.
I am sure as time goes on we will see all kinds of feedback on all types of different setups. So far so good.
