Default MREV2 with 5/16 spacer installed with Dyno on Rev-Up

I finally got Mrev2 installed this week... and OMG... my car is so much more fun to drive! The sound is awsome.... and I can totally feel the gains when passing cars on the freeway. I'm the biggest skeptic ever, and I can tell you that this mod really works. Car drives so much better now!

I had Z Car Garage install Mrev2 on the dyno. He did 2 baseline pulls and 2 pulls after install. The dyno chart is the best of the 2 pulls. Very happy with the mod! I've been driving with Mrev2 for couple days now... and everytime i do... i go like this

Edit: I have an 05 G35 6MT. only other mods is stillen intake and ztube.

Congrats, I'm glad you like your results. I'm just curious what your other mods are. Your results are almost the inverse of mine, at least looking at your peak deltas. I gained very little hp, but a lot of torque, whereas you've gained a lot of hp and just a little peak tq. I do see that you did get some good tq gains acrossed the band, but still pretty different than my own results.

I wish I could install mine. Unfortunately, I am selling mine as of today. Brand new if anyone is interested.

Here's the link

The only other mod I have is the Stillen intake and ztube. the reason for the little peak tq gain is because of the spike due to pinging (this is what the shop told me).

Is the 5/16 spacer going to do much ontop of the MREV2? I hear that on rev-ups, the spacer shows almost no gains.. but that might just be by itself..

Peak torque was never the big gain. It was the gain from like 3000-5000 RPM's.

Spacer on top of the MREV2 will produce very little gains. Optimal gains only come with the 287hp motor.

^That's not quite right.

The spacer does indeed make gains on the 287 motor with a 287 lower plenum.

But on a REVUP, the spacer by itself does not make gains if a stock REVUP lower plenum is used. But if you install the MREV2 on a REVUP engine, you want to also install the spacer.

On the REVUP engine, the MREV2 makes more TQ and the spacer makes more high RPM HP.

For the best results, use both on the REVUP engine.

Tony

Yeah I realize, thanks. I was refering to the peaks as a quick reference to the differences in our results, and actually more pointing out that he picked up more top end hp then I saw.

Hey Tony,

What if somebody uses a MREV2 + 1/2" spacer instead of 5/16"? Have you dynoed that combo?

Almost.
It was dynod with the first generation MREV. It make a little more peak power, but area under the curve was greater with the 5/16".

There were several huge threads running on this combo just a couple months ago.

Wired 24/7 did a comprehensive sequence of dynos showing the gains.
Nissan North America also tested it at their HQ in Torrance. It also showed great gains.

There has to be a hundred dyno plots of motordyne stuff all over this site. You just need to find them.

How much do mrev2's cost to install? Do I need to get a shop to do it (I don't know how to do anything on cars exept like install an intake and catback.)

Nice numbers, have fun with the new mod

You can do it yourself in about 1.5 hours.
Check out the instruction manual here:
http://motordyneengineering.com/manual.asp
to see if its something you can do.

Its pretty much all about turning 10mm bolts with a torque wrench.
