Thumbs up Who wants to hear.....................Kinetix/JWT combo!!!!

Well, here they are. Yesterday I went out and took some videos of my car... I FINALLY got all the mods on at one time. In 1/2 the vids I shifted @ 3k, 1/2 I was WOT. I didn't launch hard in any of them because my rear tires are shot... Anyway, here is my car with:

Kinetix v2 Upper Plenum
Kinetix HiFlo Cats
U/R Crank Pulley
JWT Popcharger

Enjoy.

Album w/ videos

Performance increase is simply AWESOME. If you watch all the vids, you will see me race a vette from a roll and it was very close... I'm quite happy with Kinetix; I had some problems, but they fixed them promptly. I guess I should point out that the somewhat rasp/gurgle sound you hear is the engine, NOT the exhaust note...

I went back and watched the rest. Sounds good! What kind of trouble did you run into?

1st thing that happened was my moron friend overtightened two bolts and cracked ever so slightly the plenum. I sent it back and it was updated to v2 free of charge. The only other problem was the shop that installed my cats said the bolt-holes for the support bracket didn't line up properly, so they had to spot weld it to the bracket. I do have very very minor heat-shield rattle/rub every few hours of driving, and it lasts for like 4 seconds, so I'm not worried about it. Overall I LOVE the products, they are simply awesome...

NEW link for those not wanted to register for imagestation. If a mod could edit my original post to reflect this new link, that'd be great.

Glad everyone likes it. I am LOVING the plenum and the cats, great mods in my opinion. I've put maybe 1000 miles on my car since this thread started (I drive a lot) and I have zero issues with the plenum cracking. It looks sweet too.
