So I installed my MREV2 today, It took two 2 hours, with me cleaning some areas in the engine bay.

This is not a Thread for Do It Yourselfers, the MotorDyne Install Guide it petty much foolproof.

Pic1) Remove engine cover (Notice my red dip-stick ring)
Pic2) Remove intake tube
Pic3) Remove Upper Plenum and 3/8" spacer (Not that much oil, since the last time I cleaned in there.)
Pic4) Remove Lower Plenum. (All the air intakes for the heads on the drivers side, VERY DIRTY, and OILY) (Oil Catch Here WE Come)
Pic5) MREV2 in place, Stock to the side (Look at the runner)

Looks awesome, btw just curious are the grounding wires make a huge difference at all?

 

Power wise, No, I didn't buy them for that, I got them so the engines sensors and computers can run more efficient.

 

Hi Citymunky,

After carefull observation of your attached pictures, I am sorry to inform you that the "MREV2" you have shown top right attached picture is a low quality counterfit of the MREV2. Its not genuine.



It is a fake. A fraud. A counterfit. It was not made by Motordyne.



Who sold you that lower plenum?


.

 

There are fakes for this too? And I was going to buy one used.... right.

 

Wow, nice catch Tony. Sucks to hear that he installed a counterfeit.

Tony............ why are you removing all the posts????

 

I havn't removed anything.

But don't remove anything yourself. It will only be more incriminating. It has all been saved for evidence.

Moderators and Admin are informed.

 

I had no idea there were counterfeit. I guess the only way to buy it is straight through motordyne.

 

wow, im speechless

 

I see. It wasn't there before I looked, but you're right it's back. Wow too many post to keep up with!!!

 

I got my MREV2 from RebelinRI a Sponsor for My350Z.com. I Started a WTB Thread, and he replied.

^Apparently RebelinRI is manufacturing false MREV2's according to hydrazine, but I'm just speculating.

 

Yes, it is true.

 

Well, here's a pic of the MREV2 off of Motordyne's site:



Here's a pic of RebinInRI's:



The most obvious difference I see is that the tops of the front two intake runners on Rebel's plenum are chopped down a lot further than on the MREV, and the corners are very sharp. If we had a better quality pic of Rebel's, we may be able to see some more subtle discrepencies.

I know I've seen Rebel trying to buy lower collectors here and on my350z in the past.

Here are some links:

Of course, these don't prove that he was buying up a bunch of collectors, but the pattern tends to favor as much.

Rob, you do know that Tony has a patent on the item and a trademark on the name, right? If you're not selling actual MREV2s that were made by Motordyne Engineering, you could be in some deep doodoo .
