The numbers were WAY INFLATED on the original SSV, so I don't trust these numbers either. Kinetix dynos are about as trustworthy as a VRT/RA dynosheet IMO.

Yeah I have never seen an 03 with no mods rev above 6500rpm....something seems a little off with that dyno. Unless they have the wrong year and its a 2006.

I will keep posted for updates though. Will wait for a dyno from someone one here that has tested it personally.

we took it to the dyno with it on. never actually tested it with the stock manifold. overall the customer was def. happy with the end result. we are going back to the dyno on friday. i might just bring one and see what kind of difference it will make on a stock g35 with greddy tt kit aam stage 1 return with 650cc injectors on 9psi wastegate springs.

Installed SSV into a 2006 Stock motor , replacing the old plenum and now the car purrs. Good acceleration and at 50+ it kicks in with apparent increase power. Feels like an extra nudge coming from the powertraqin. Don't know if its the SSV as it has'n gone under the dyno yet. this is next. using a K&N typhoon intake & Borla TDs w/cats.

Looks good, sounds good, and runs smoothly. I don't get finite with .00001 details

^^^ Too bad this is the 370Z section and not 350Z, its pretty established by actually anyone and everyone we know including ourselves that the Kinetix manifolds always lost power on any vehicles dyno tested in AZ.

Oh well the new plastic cover sounds like a nifty idea.

Don't cry to much when the dyno #'s come in..
Had a local owner swap out his MD spacer & MREV2 for this and he lost power.. I am talking, less power than the stock setup.. Even with Osiris, it was useless..

heh most people are too afraid to admit when they spend that kind of money and the results are minimal or not there at all, they always 'seem happy with the results' :|

Default Employee here bit.

This car had a plenum spacer on the before run. I guess that could explain why the other dyno runs that they posted fell off. But this is a back to back pull.

i have the kenetix velocity intake plenum, jwt pop charger, hks high flow, exhaust 2 flat cats, stock tune (prev owner liked bouncing them off speed bumps(just intalled berk hfc OMG!but this was after the race) i pulled another 03 350z by over 2 cars that had a typhon intake, 5/16 plenum spacer, test pipes, and injen ses exhaust that dynoed at 241hp with a raised rev limiter idk the tq. we did a 45 roll(at a track so it would be car vs car and his car deffinitly had more tq we started in second and he jumped me 1/4 a car just in second. by third we were even again and but after 5800rpm i caught up him and pulled him half a car. by the end of fourth i had over a car and half a on him.
we did this like 5 times and once from a dig and got the same results everytime.

im sure yall want to see numbers from a dyno and all but true track testing is better then any dyno sheet.
and yes we are both good drivers its not hard to change 2 gears.

it makes unbelievable sound and looks amazing best 700 ive spent.
