Default Intake Manifold...

Kinetix SSV Extreme Flow Manifold 350z/G35 does anyone have this installed on their Z? Bostic is wanting me to pick one up but I wanted the reviews from the Mid-A Family first.... Thanks!

You should go with the Cosworth Intake Manifold. Have it polished. With the CF end caps it will look AWESOME!

Well since your Z is a show car, go for it. It is nice looking,but it actually makes you lose power.

I 100% would not do the Kinetix.

The Cosworth in a few high boost applications has leaked from the end caps. I wouldnt jump on that bandwagon just yet, but thats not to say its doesnt work.

Bryce-what were your final numbers?

This was done on a stock car.. From what i hear, there are gains with Forced Induction.
