Not for the faint of heart pre release is 1889..

No dyno numbers yet but follow if you want to see the results..

IMO if this thing doesn't get at least 20whp and TQ plus to the wheels I wouldn't touch it for that price

Holy MF for that price...yeah!

 

Interested. Following this thread and on the 370 forum. I'm very intersted to see locations of aux/PVC hose ports, know the size of throttle body location diameter (58mm 60mm, 63 mm), under manifold dimensions/pictures (are the lower port openings going to the lower manifold area larger or OEM spec?) and so on. Basically all the info that I and others could use to compare against other products (stock, Z1, M370, etc).

Crossing fingers for some good dyno science. The product will look super in the engine bay, IMO.

 

cant see myself forkin up that dough.. have to be serious gains to be worth the dollar per hp..

 

Took long enough to get more aftermarket intake manifolds. 2K may be a killer but i'm open to it. not willing to fork up 2Gs but i hope the results are great.

 

there are 2 AUX port in the front and back of the manifold..
im pretty sure the throttle body size is the size of the stock ones.
they say the flow rate of the manifold is 50% better than stock..
but why they throw a picture of this up there with no dyno or other information is beyond me..
like i said unless this make 20whp and 20tq or more im not touching it..



• 10% Pre-Order Discount for first 20 CUSTOMERS ONLY ($1,889.99) - MSRP $2,099.99
*Optional Carbon Fiber inserts ($189) – MSRP $210.00
• A truly revolutionary design that’s sure to turn heads
• The perfect solution for BOTH naturally-aspirated & forced-induction applications
• Direct replacement of plastic factory manifold, no modification required!
• 50% Increase in runner flow
• 4 auxiliary vacuum ports
• Includes ALL necessary vacuum fittings, gaskets & hardware
• Maintains factory strut bar

 

Based on the price alone, I'm guessing this manifold is geared towards someone who is looking to get high boost psi (800+ rwhp). I doubt a NA car will benefit enough to justify the cost of this.

 

I want to turn wheels, not heads.

 

i just hope they do they right dyno test.. baseline for baseline no tuning..
and i hope they test it on a car with mods already

 

They said they gonna test it on a n/a and boosted application. they probably gonna use their shop car with all their products... like the fact of the extra vacuum ports. very helpful on a boosted application.

 

Sooo when are you getting one?

 

i hope they don't use their test car for this.. they should use a outside donor car!!
i told them i would do testing for them if they sold me one for 1500..
but i want to see baseline to baseline no tuning on one..then tuning on another dyno run same car..

 

It is a possibility

 

first batch wont be available till march.so thats when the testing will be done

Thank you for taking the time to write. The manifold is designed to accept up to 70mm TB’s. The Manifold consist of cast aluminum. The enthusiast will have the opportunity to obtain carbon fiber inserts as an upgrade. The runners are larger versus oem and tapers down to the lower oem runners. The lower portion of the runner is designed to be ported for those who have ported lower and heads.

There are also 4 auxiliary vacuum ports. There are located two on each TB side by the butterfly valve.

As time moves forward and more information becomes available, I will make it a priority to update the threads on www.the370Z.com. If you have not yet seen the thread, it is as follows:

Cast aluminum could make the engine bay hotter. Still interested.
