I really don't see it as an issue.
I don't know of anyone that has had a problem.
Most wouldn't even know it's there.
I have my engine cover off (easier to see) & the dealer could care less.

It was an impulse buy the wife wanted a 4dr and this is what she got. I feel i got a pretty good deal as far as price. it is pretty fun to look @ in the garage. stock wheels and snow will be on Sat.
thanks.
thanks.
that ebay ad was a thread out here during the time he was selling it... someone else asked about the 315 hp claim... it was the general consensus (including my opinion) that the seller meant crank hp not rw. It is feasible to be 315 at the crank with those mods.
04 is 260 hp at crank
Plenum spacer causing warranty issues shouldn’t be a concern because it's easy to take of prior to taking to dealer.

Dyno test is the only way;

The best bet is to just enjoy the ride for what it is

sedan & coupe were very close

what i do is.... take the number and divide by 2.. then add it on... I have the injen on my 05 6mt coupe. it says 18hp gain or whatever.. so i figure..9-10 hp added. Figure the hp of my ar is around 305-310.

The advertised HP gains have always fascinated. My buying decisions have been influenced a great deal by this forum. I have the 1/2 inch Motordyne plenum spacer, z-tube/JWT pop charger, Stillen Catback Exhaust (and HKS sport muffler in case the Stillen is too loud) stored and waiting to be installed in spring. So far, only Gord Gee's GroudingGear 10-wire system is installed in my 2005 G35x. There is a definitely a noticeable improvement in the overall driving experience with this system. Anyway, I can't wait to see if the other modifications will improve the performance (i.e. acceleration) of my X.




congrats bro and good luck
