it does not. it is worthless over priced bling bling (with the ugly Kinetix printed on it)

try the motordyne or Intense plenum spacers, they have been PROVEN to increase power...

While I never dyno'd before or after, I had one on my car while both N/A and F/I and my car always put down solid power. I eventually switched back to oem + spacer because I had trouble getting my A/F ratio staight with the SSV.

FYI: My car made 267whp with popcharger/SSV/headers/tp/exhaust, and 366whp after adding vortech supercharger w/ 3.33 pulley and out of the box tune (aka 9:1 A/F); stock DE Z33's dyno'd in the 240whp range on this dyno.

I just wanted to post up to numbers to say that while the SSV is far from the best manifold solution on the market, it isnt exactly a bottleneck.

Yes the new velocity manifold is top notch. I have posted before and after dynos. I have also posted tuned runs of the plenum. If you don't bolt it down correctly it will not work worth a crap. I will have a forced induction test between the Kinetix, APS tall boy and I will try to throw a stock in the mix(after oil pan is repaired). If you have any questions about my testing feel free to call me.

kenetix velocity manifold over the flat panel plenum. composites crack and leak at bolts and throttle body. Also sparkles in the bright sunshine at shows with the hood open. Some improvement w/ NA but engages with air force.
