KinetiX SSV Polished Stainless Steel Manifold

Perfect condition, complete upper & lower plenum replacement kit including instructions and 5mm allen key - deposit taken

This is the SSV, suitable for N/A and also F/I upto ~15PSI. Above this boost level you will need the current SSV Extreme Velocity version, which will set you back $749.00, plus tax, shipping, import duty, VAT and handling fee...

From KinetiX original information, the SSV has matched length intake runners with velocity stacks and the higher volume plenum chamber design equalises air flow between cylinders.

Supplied fitting instructions are text only, a useful guide with images is here

. Fitting is straightforward as long as you take your time, it took me around 2hrs.

 

In my experience the SSV offers a good performance uplift, especially noticeable in the upper rev range where the stock intake runs out of breath and where the ever popular spacer doesn't help. There is also an impressively flat torque curve (dyno results will follow due to three image limit, but they are already posted elsewhere on the forum). To realise the full potential, I'd definitely recommend an UpRev tune (though again from experience I'd recommend the UpRev for all Z's!) and performance panel filter - I've used both the nismo and HKS filters.

In addition to the pure performance improvement, there is also a good weight reduction from the top of the engine, in the order of 11lbs.

 

You also get the looks and the sounds.

KinetiX claim less heat soak affecting charge temperature due to all Stainless Steel construction - the manifold does run significantly cooler than the stock intake manifold collector.

Shorter, direct path runners that feed straight into the intake manifold

The KinetiX clears the factory strut brace and has an additional blanked port for boost gauges, etc.

SSV dyno results comparison:

post-4402-135011911298_thumb.png

results from another VQ35DE on the same dyno

post-4402-135011911384_thumb.jpg

While not comparing absolute results (runs were on different days and it was +10c hotter on the day of my runs), both the torque curve and HP, especially top end ~6200 onwards, show significant improvements. Both cars have similar mods, intake, SSV/spacer, exhaust and other results also show the same trend.

post-4402-135011911392_thumb.png

Above are results from a 2006 Revup engine showing how close the VQ35DE is in terms of HP, while maintaining its superior torque curve.

 

For anyone interested in F/I, SSV results on a boosted Z can be seen here.
