I'd bet that it gained torque during N/A acceleration 1000-2500 RPM, but that it doesn't gain much once you go on boost. That's just my opinion though. Power down low is still power.

Yeah I don't have any numbers to dispute that, I don't think it hurt though. As far as tuning it helps even the air out though as would any FI plenum done right.

I went through a period of Dyno fear understandbly I just wanted the car to *run* when I finnaly got it back after about 3 months. LOL just driving it was good enough for me at that point.

This will be great for both boosted and N/A applications. We are going to be having a GREAT sale on it as well. We are going to be selling the manifold for $600 if we can scrounge up 10 orders at first. There is $0 core charge, as our core is completely unique and is 100% custom.

Full retail pricing will probably be about $695 - $795

wow 600 beans huh? You have got to show some specs or have some testers soon for it to do well against the 2 big Plenum guys.

I'm glad you said that because that's the first thing I thought of when looking at the short runners and low volume plenum. All about making HP at upper rpms

noticed that the webiste has been updated http://ssr-engineering.com

"Fully hand-built, aluminum Intake manifold. This will dramatically increase flow and performance for your G35/350z!"

and

"Our G35 Intake Manifold, and Twin Turbo Kit are finally finished! Boasting 402WHP the combo has been proven to be the most productive system on the market at the standard boost pressure! "

Great job SSR.
It's quite obvious just from seeing the pictures that this is going to make a pretty big difference on the top end. The other plenums are going to look stock compared to this thing.

"Our G35 Intake Manifold, and Twin Turbo Kit are finally finished! Boasting 402WHP the combo has been proven to be the most productive system on the market at the standard boost pressure! "
Can anyone view the SSR page with this info? For some reason I can't get to it. Just wondering if they are claiming 402whp with only TT and the plenum, or if the car has other mods like exhaust, headers, etc (I'm guessing it is the latter... if so, I want to see what else is contributing to the 402)

The other thing I'm wondering is how this can be touted as the "most productive system on the market". There is no basis for comparison. As I understand it the SSR Twin Turbo is of their own design. For a fair comparison, you'd have to put the Crawford Plenum and/or Kinetix Plenum on the SSR TT car to compare evenly, or you could take the SSR plenum and put it on a car that had been running the Crawford/Kinetex plenum.

Regardless, who can complain with 402whp!!! ...especially if someone independent can duplicate it as an unbiased source.
