Anyone have any experience with this?

Looks like a great design.

Anyone know what the other upper/lower plenum replacement manifold is that looks really trick in SS? Its not designed like this and i think its a little more expensive.

Thanks,
Cory

What about plenum spacers and other upper plenum balanced replacements?

The Kinetix SSV does look pretty tight though. Definitely not worth the $800 without some serious improvements.

Kinetix SSV is worth it IMO... This car has one of the ugliest engine bays known to man... pretty much every after market plenum is ugly along with the stock plenum.

SSV is fawking HOTTTTTTTT and it does give you gains, how does it not? Its way more different than stock.. It replaces the upper and lower plenum whereas all other plenums only replace the upper portion.

Dude its a waist of money on a n/a car but it does show some gains on a f/i car.If you want it just buy it for the looks.Or get this if you want some gains.

Just because it looks cool doesn't mean it makes you faster! When I was like 7 the Fiero was cool, but it surely wasn't fast.

Also, there are lower plenum replacements.....MOTORDYNE....that provide excellent gains across the board. There's a reason Nissan made this pancake style plenum for this engine. So we have MREV for the lower, we have spacers from Motordyne and PowerLab, and we have upper plenums from Kinetix and APS. There's others but I'm not going to dive in too deep right now.

Anywhoooo, unless you are FI you should stay away from the SSV. Even if you are FI the MREV and spacer combo should flow plenty.
