I have a friend with an 05 coupe so now I have one to test fit but I have concerns about the paint. I think I would need to paint all the parts around it. The 03/04 ones were all 1-pc so I didn't have to find anything that was an exact match.
30 hp? lol
that plenum has only made gains on super hi revving na or high boost cars.
for all that money, i'd say less than 10 hp across the band if that. now, cant put a price on looks however.

have the OEM plenum without any other mods with the Cosworth you could
get 30+ more RWHP....my guess! G/L with the tranny rebuild....

for that amount of money i would expect to see gains in the 20-30whp range. it is very pretty though. if you are in the 500+whp range, i would polish the stock plenum, add a spacer, and maybe the hks twin power DLI. except on some high hp shop cars, i havent seen too many examples of a noticable hp increase. i'm sure there might be athread or two dedicated to this on the my350z site.

I agree- I really doubt you'll see 30 horsepower out of this. 30 ponies is a lot.
there's been proven gains with the Cosworth and 8psi turbonetics single:

Damn, I haven't looked but I thought that since the Cosworths have been out for a year now they might be more widely available. Guess not 
Find me with someone that has it in stock. I might've even considered that polished one, but its gone now

Post pics when you get it and install it!!
