Good luck with your mods. Still waiting for your "Kinetix vs spacer dyno results".
BTW what the hell does the tint comment have to do with anything? You are really reaching to save face aren’t you. If you haven’t noticed, your comments are making you look foolish.

My SSV is on....
AND SURE GLAD IT IS!!!!!

Over my MD 1/2" spacer with MREV2 and Copper ISO I gained 8HP and 6TQ at 6400.
I had a small loss, -9tq and -4hp from 1800-2186 - but gained it all back at 2312 and saw consistent gains, as with the MD all the way through the band. The real power comes in at 4300 all the way to redline and levels at about 7684 - which is just above my normal shift point of 7600. My car REDS at 7800.
I love it - the sound is awesome too - the bling factor is an added bonus. The cost - well the MD products cost about $740 for everything - so for $60 buck - the extra HP and TQ and the Bling...no issue here.
The only CON I have is that the trans dipstick is blocked by the unit. So you have to bend it a bit so it is accessible - but to do so properly, you have to remove it from the car completely. That added a 1/2 hour to the install - but no biggie in the end - but there was no call for it in the instructions. It's almost like the unit was not designed for an AT...but I don't care now!!!
All smiles here!!!

P.S. Tony man - I love ya and the products - this baby works!

It did exactly what a manifold of this type should do. Peak HP vs. low end. But stock cam profiles will not take advantage of what it offers, so expect very little.
How's the street manners? Some N/A guys have complained about rough running, odd throttle response, surging, and general weirdness with this thing.

I've got a few more things to do to the engine compartment in the next few weeks to. The z-tube is being replaced with a polished stainless piece, the hoses are going braided, the timing cover is getting polished and the battery and brake covers are getting custom polished stainless pieces as well that are laser etched.
