Headers: Alphawerks Racing Development = +21hp/+15tq
Thank you all for your enthusiasm for the 350Z. We too share the same enthusiasm here at Nexus Industry with the newest Alphawerks Racing Development 350Z headers. The 350Z is a remarkable engine that is capable of more power than most companies are producing and we have proven it. Give your own cars more credit.
Nexus Industry is true racing development. We R&D each product, test fit, and dyno each product to match your real world conditions. Nexus Industry baselines, installs, and dynos the same day to maintain the same environment. We take JDM applications and modify them not only to fit your USDM model, but also to better match your US spec motor.
We will shortly post replies to all of your questions and will also post pictures of the original JDM 350Z headers and the modifications that had to be made to it to fit and run more power on USDM 350Z. We thank you for the opportunity to provide you with the best product on the market and for being true tuners and enthusiasts of the 350Z.
Victor D.

Hey, no offense, but creating 3 threads to post separate information that could all be combined into one is a little over zealous dont you think?
I move to merge the threads.

My apologies for the different posts. I just wanted to make sure everyone that had questions knew that I was here to answer any and all questions. We think that our brand image depends on the flow of information from the importer to the tuner.
Please those who doubted before the potential of the 350Z engine and had any questions I am here for your questions.

Mwaller,
Thank you for your interest in our products. The performance gains from our products are not "claims" they are the results of true racing development. Best of all Alphawerks 350Z headers have perfect fitment and the same warranty as Nismo 1 year / 12k miles.
The 350Z results were achieved with a severe flow restriction on of the header banks to make the JDM model fit a USDM 350Z. With these restrictions the header still made +21hp/+15tq. We actually believe that the car is capable of at least 2-3 more hp.
The car tested was a 100% stock 350Z that was baselined and dyno’d with ONLY the headers and no other performance mods. Check following MY350Z threads for more info.
In essence the gains are real and independently tested and all done the same day under the same circumstances to assure true power. The 350Z motor is capable of these numbers and we can not wait till we dyno our headers with the new Alphawerks’ Test Pipes. With these in place we expect at least another 5-7 hp.
If you would like more info on the headers check out Super Street write up on them at their site http://superstreetonline.com/plugged/parts/130_0410_alphawerks/. The Super Street hp #'s are very close to the dyno's done at Speed Lab which is the independent facility we use to test the Alphawerks' products.
For more info check the following MY350Z.com threads:

thawk408,
How is 2nd Ave. these days and the Tigermart next to the expressway, still packed every weekend? As for the headers, do not underestimate the power of your 350Z engine, it is huge.
If you would like more info on the headers check out Super Street write up on them at their site http://superstreetonline.com/plugged/parts/130_0410_alphawerks/. The Super Street hp #'s are almost identical to the dyno's done at Speed Lab which is the independent facility we use to test the Alphawerks' products.
The dyno's are what they are, they are a result of our R+D department making these JDM headers fit and improved for your 350Z USDM model. We apologize to all MY350Z.com members that have not realized the same hp gains from lower quality products. Please take the time to read the following info on the headers and check out the pics on the R+D, and thanks again for the questions.
R+D Pics...remember we had to force the JDM header in at a joint that we had to weld in and pinch. This restricted air flow a good bit on the left bank and we still made +21hp, we should see another 3hp at least when we get the final mods back to us. Check out the size of the indent we made next to one of our turbos:

mwaller,
The fitment issue is the first question that we addressed. We wanted to make sure it fit, made max power, and easy to install without having to remove the motor.
Let me repeat, unlike some other headers YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE ENGINE. This would put your install costs through the roof. Check out the following thread to see where exactly we had to correct the fitment issues and how we had to change the angle on that runner in the left bank to make the header fit with max power.
Go to this MY350Z.com forum thread for the fitment pics:

These headers look awesome.
Sorry if some of us 350Zers are skeptical, you know the old saying "once burned twice shy"
If that 20+HP gain is reproducible by your average Joe than you definitely have some sweet headers.

Tweety-nator,
You should be skeptical, I would be, especially when no one backs up their products with a one year warranty like we do. And again these headers are T-304 Stainless-Steel = they can not rust like other headers.
Super Street did a review and they averaged almost the same numbers on one of our previous versions. If you want to check out the write-up just go to:
See us at SEMA Show Booth: # 20169

Tweety-nator,
Sorry here is the correct link:
http://superstreetonline.com/plugged/parts/130_0410_alphawerks/
We have also developed test pipes to match these headers that should add another 5-7hp to the header numbers.
