sinbad Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Whats the general consensus on these? Are they any good? Better than the V+ plenum? http://www.kinetixracing.com/index.asp? ... &ProdID=12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 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 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 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] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathys Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
