I was wondering where you were man. Where you been?

 

The cronies and I have been listening to the little birdies chirp in our ears about your latest mod for a month or two now... Everything was considered official when G35_TX wouldn't take me up on my $100 bet.

BTW, I've been having all of my fun in FI land! Good luck with your latest round of mods.

 

What bet?

Edit now i remember.

 

Oh you mean guessing what it was?... Yeah. I droped so many big hints I was kinda surprised more didn't figure it out.

In fact, I was more surprised in the fact that several figured it out here on the G35 board while only few did on the 350Z board.... That was the biggest surprise considering the 350Z board is more into engine modifications.

I gotta give credit to Gee Pasta. He suggested trying it only weeks after I dynod it on Klumzyees car. And he PM'd me with the suggestion before I posted anything about the experimental dynos. So Pasta is the only other person (I know of) that figured it out completely independantly and before any plots or discussion of it were made.

MREV isn't rocket science, its' like low hanging fruit just waiting to be picked. Substantial gains are made and its so simple to do.

 

Funny, a while ago Dennis and I had a few conversations about this mod too. I just checked and I sent a PM to G35_TX on 10-19-2005. I remember telling Dennis that Jason at Perf. Nissan was talking about buying lower intake manifolds BEFORE the 2005's ever came out. Remember those watermarked photos? Jason was the first to post the pics of the different manifolds on my350z.com and then we had the data from ChazM and 98Intrigue going head to head with a 2004 6mt coupe vs. 2005 6mt coupe in our 3rd Dyno day click here for the link. Then they went to the track and ran each other with completely BONE STOCK G's. With the differences we saw and posted back in the middle of July 2005, well let's just say it was hard not blurting out what I thought it was.

On a side note. I promise to keep this thread clean over here on driver, as long as the Haridan's don't start bashing us Cronies.

 

Three days without any drama? BUMP!

 

SSSSShhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

 

I haven't seen any 1/4 track times or whether or not the MREV has beaten a non MREV in a 1/4 mile... haven’t even seen dyno comparo of nonMREV vs MREV..... I don’t see how we can believe this is even worthwhile!

















JUST KIDDING!!!! I was missing the drama too - NOTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!! But I do wish us non-revups had something new to cheer about. Happy motoring MREVers... glad you finally got something you can smile about

 

Smiling? . . . Yes, from ear to ear, still. Exactly what I was looking for.

 

Now that we have the MREV for the '05s how much more power do we need to keep up with the E46?

 

Here we go again.

I drew down on a 997 Turboed P-car. The poor bastard never had a chance. When I told him I had the infamous MREV on board, he raised both of his hands up to me and said, "Sir, please go first." As I pulled away from the stop light, all I could hear the P-car driver say to himself was, "Do I feel lucky, today?"

 

I just wanted an idea.....

 

Sorry, I know you just wanted an idea. Now, that I have taken the edge out of your question. Perhaps the more experienced memebers can actually offer you some REAL solutions to your query.

I didn't want see your question turn into another 250 posts argument over the merits of MREV. MREV is a great starting place, if one is looking for more power for their G. For some, it's all they will ever need, like myself. Well, for now anyways.

 

Nah, Im all about the MREV. I have only heard good things about it but my reason asking is because I am deciding between an M3 and a G35.

 

*IF* you get the G35, check out the Florida G35 Club Forum here on driver. Also, read the sticky threads at the top of our club forum. There is one preferred dealership in FL that you're gonna want to check out.
