Kinetix SSV Plenum?

[sinbad]

Whats the general consensus on these?

Are they any good?

Better than the V+ plenum?

I think you have to dispense with the strut bar ?? no you dont take no notice

afaik only StephenG has got it and his Z is FI. He says he had gains after remapping his Vortech.

 

In the US many people hate it, many proved it lost hp on their Zeds.

 

NA I think was one of those cases where it lost hp and torque too, iirc.

 

personally I'm not too convinced by it.

[Guest prescience]

It looks bling no doubt about that.

 

StephenG initially had gains and then I think at the next dyno, the numbers weren't so good. This is consistent with findings in the States where for example SungNamZ did 29 dyno sessions to get a good number in combination with his Vortech.

 

Very unlikely to get gains N/A without access to a piggy-back ECU and even then, proably difficult to extract much benefit (or recover any lost torque/power).

 

[The Vortech comment is fact, whereas the N/A is supposition]

[Mathys]

When N/A, forget it unless you really like the bling factor and don't care about performance.

FI, it could give some nice gains after tuning. However, better and cheaper options out there.

I didn't go for it in the end. Thanks for the Advice.
