When you go to a car show and pop the hood and have that teamed up with a long tube polished Injen CAI and blue pulleys and a blue 10-wire grounding key it's impressive.
seeing THIS at a car show is impressive:

Not a colored set of pullies and polished manifold, heh

I know on most other tuner cars swapping the IM makes some major gains. Then again most of these cars are using forced induction, where breathing is of utmost importance. On an NA, I guess it could be somewhat restrictive, if the mix is becoming too lean, but thats what fuel management is for. Some people must just have a hard one for Kinetix.

These are from the first dyno session and at over 100 degrees in Phoenix and running nice and fat! (oh yeah, I almost forgot that these runs were done in 5th gear!)

One car has the ability to pull the front tires right off the ground at WOT
One's probably lucky to make 100tq at 1500RPM
I wonder which is which ^_^

If ANYONE can point to a link to a dyno that shows positive gains on the SSV on a NA machine (even 5 hp), please post it. I never saw a single one.
I have read 3-4 posts about problems on NA machines. I have read many posts about benefits with FI.
That about sum this up?
The problems with NA (IMO) stem from unequal flow to the rear cylinders vs. the front cylinders which are relatively starved for air flow. Without boost, the back cylinders are going to suck down much more air than the front cylinders because it arrives there first. In other words, the distance from throttle body to each cylinder bank is very different. Just my 2 cents...

I have a dyno sheet of an SSV on a N/A G35 and like I htought it is a sweet setup. So the rumored power loss and it's only good for FI is a bunch of crap. I don't think a lot of people have the plenum so their isn't much info on it.

^^ that's from the kinetix website.... of course they wouldn't post a dyno that shows loss in power.
the Injen CAI intake is suppose to add up to +15 hp too, and they show a dyno to "prove" it
Any dyno graphs of NA motors not from a vendor?
