Review of my modified lower plenum
#16
I'm about to try this myself on my 06 350Z 6MT. Im going to install the 03 lower plenum dyno then do the machining dyno again then do the plenum spacer then dyno again. I physicaly compared MD's plenum with a stock one and only found that they milled down and polished the front two runners. I didnt see any other milling or polishing. If everything goes well I plan on posting up a DIY with pictures within the next month.

Here's what I've been up to. Pretty much just smoothed out the humps and inputs to the ports. Also shaved down the side of the runner in the back (#6?), it looked close to the top plenum wall, so I'm thinking it will help airflow a little around the side of that runner. Need to pick up a spacer and get this thing installed.

So I conned a co-worker, I mean a friend with a 350z asked me to take a crack at his manifold. After looking at it a little longer, I think the airflow around the 2 inputs that are closest to the outside edge could be improved. So I took this one a little bit further, in this picture it's the top left and bottom right portions I'm referring to:
I followed the flow of the casting a little better:
Here's the same area originally:
This is the other one I notched out:

Thoughts? It's not installed yet, wondering if I should take the second area down a bit more.
