D4V3H Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 I am looking for advice on the best value for money intakes. Is there any intakes that are dyno proven? Cheers Dave Quote
KyleR Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 The only dyno proven one that I know about is the 06+ airbox with a performance panel filter or modifying the earlier one. Other cone type filters will lose a couple of HP, but its worth it for the noise Quote

HARMLU Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I know I will get slated as it doesn't add any power, but I like it. I have an AEM short ram. Replaced the pop charger which came with car so didn't notice any difference in power (maybe a little more responsive though). Quality is superb, and easy to fit with good instructions. Only mods I have are stainless cat back (custom made so no particular make), H-DEV plenum spacer. Plan (when the current cats get a fault), is to replace with HFC's and get an uprev remap. As you can probably tell I don't like spending money without reason, but I have to say I am pretty chuffed I spent the extra on an aem kit. If it's power you want (please anyone, correct me if I'm wrong), it's a panel filter you want Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 If your focus is power then i would save up for a Supercharger, there's not a lot to be gained from intake kits on a 350z except engine bling and an awesome noise!! Quote
D4V3H Posted November 18, 2013 Author Posted November 18, 2013 Thanks for the responses. Currently looking into the velocity stack mod. As I have an 04 reg which doesn't apear to have one. Quote
SkylineV35 Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 I stuck with Blitz panel filter an oem box setup with ztube.. I believe plastic is better than metal to reduce heat. But even if you did go cone etc I dont think much difference is made apart from noise. Quote
D4V3H Posted November 18, 2013 Author Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) Yeah I had a look at pannel filters blitz seems to be well priced. What is a ztube? Edited November 18, 2013 by D4V3H Quote

Oh sorry forgot ztube is tube from 350z that fits our V35 350gts, as ours came with a gtube which is designed to muffle sound but in doing so decreases our performance and mpg. Yeah Bltz seem to be quite decent the other one is cosworth. I bought my panel before i even bought my car haha 1 Quote

Theres a noticable noise with the plenum spacer but real gains aparently arent seen till after upreving!. a guy here called wasso does top quality ones and you can have it colourcoded! bonus! 1 Quote
Jay-350z Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Make your own. . 3" ally 45' pipe, cut to length, polished. And any cone filter. There all the same. Quote

To get the gain, you will need to uprev your car. I think then you will notice a difference but mostly will be from the re map. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Quote
