15+ on a 350z
I've not read anything but what has been posted here and the posted video. Certainly I follow your logic. I don't question that. If Aaron states elsewhere that the 12+ is on a DIFFERENT maxima with different mods, I'm of the opinion it needs to be clarified and established here as well.....nothing more. You mention intake dynos, great example because they are deceptive for exactly the reason you stated. Aaron is NOT deceptive. So when I see two different numbers, I want to know why. If you can pull the information explaining the 12+ on a maxima, I would personally appreciate it. It would definately contribute to this discussion and our knowledge of the product. And yes, I'm am too lazy to do it myself at the moment. For no other reason, the discussion is here, so lets get the relevant info here as well. |
I see what you're saying.
The VIDEO states 12+ HP on the Max, everything else says 7+ on the max. Both the Video and everything else state 15+ on the G35/350z |
Thank you everyone for your support! I just wanted to post and let you guys know I'm not ignoring this thread. I plan to fully answer everybody's question.
About the dyno gains discrepancy, the 7+ HP gain that was posted with the nearly stock 03 Maxima was with a stock intake manifold. Only the 5pc Spacer Kit, Premium VIAS Block Plate Kit, and a cheap cone filter was installed. The 12+ HP gain that is shown in the video is with my 92 Maxima VQ35 full ECU swap (same ECU as 02-03 Maxima). This car has cams and headwork, but the biggest difference is the SSIM (i.e. gutted intake manifold). This is the biggest reason for the difference, along with the fact that our tests have also shown that the more breathing mods you've done to your car, the more of a bottle neck the stock 70mm TB is. The 75mm TB is really needed on any VQ35 since it loves to breath so much. I hope this helps. I will be back soon to answer all the other questions and concerns. Thanks again! And no, I won't marry you cjandura! Sorry. :) |
Absolutely answered my question! Thanks Aaron!
That translates into roughly $46 per horse gained (Based on lower 8hp gain). Depending on mods. I just like to crunch those kinds of numbers. |
You know what would be nice if aaron made a matching short ram with a machined Maf adapter and CF tubes.and the reconsider my offer.....

i wonder how this works when combined with the Throttle Body Spacer piece from the Intake Manifold Spacer kits.
hopefully they can compliment each other??:cool:

If I missed any questions, I apologize. Please ask them again. This NWP Engineering 75mm BBTB Kit is being talked about all over the internet! Facebook, Instagram, and discussion forums. Thank you for everyone's support.

Great product! I plan to order it soon after it's available. It says no tuning required. So, if we are currently tuned with a vafc we don't have to adjust any settings to optimize performance?

I'm sorry. I do have VQ30 love though. We have a pretty awesome Thermal Intake Spacer Kit and an Engine Torque Link Kit. If you don't like them, you can always send them back for a full refund.
What do you mean by hybrid 3.5s? You mean the 3.5 engine swap that 4th gen guys do with the 3.0 timing components? If so, this mod will work for them too. But they will have to hack up a perfectly good OEM TB to remove the gear motor and install a throttle cable pulley. Just order the kit without the VoltageDrop.net Wiring Harness. |
A little off topic but aaron are you using haas machine?

It's a lot easier for VQ30s to find alternate drive-by-cable operated throttle bodies...no need for NWP to reinvent the wheel on that. DBW is a much more complicated system, just be lucky you don't have to worry about it.

Must purchase this very soon! Now I'm gonna need that bigger MAF housing and finish that CAI I've been meaning to make...
F*ck it. There goes the Christmas savings. :-P |
might be a stupid question but is there gonna be any sound difference? I havent bought any NWP products yet but so far I see only good reviews from everyone.

Just install and push the pedal on the right!

heck naw I aint sending them back! Thats what I meant, it appears most of the cost goes towards the new TB and to hack that up makes it relatively pointless. We will see. Great product though
Thank you for your support!

Q: Aaron,
- Out of curiousity, how much of the 7.6hp gain would you attribute to the increased intake plenum length behind the throttle body? - Assuming car has basic mods associated with 7.6hp gain, how much more do you think would be gained from gutting the intake (SSIM)? |

- Out of curiousity, how much of the 7.6hp gain would you attribute to the increased intake plenum length behind the throttle body? We made this adapter plate as thin as possible to prevent any loss in top end power. - Assuming car has basic mods associated with 7.6hp gain, how much more do you think would be gained from gutting the intake (SSIM)? That's why the video says 12+ HP gain on the Maxima, but the first dyno chart we released for the Maxima showed a 7.6hp gain. The difference was the stock manifold vs the SSIM. |
Thanks Aaron! Was curious about your perception of what attributed to added gains on your car (cams vs SSIM), especially with cams. Common knowledge these engines like to breath, so I'm just trying to conceptualize what mods could be done to maximize hp gain with this mod without going VAFC, wideband, 3.5" intake, and/or cam'd route. I'm just not interested going that far.

looks nice should sound nice with intake too:)

That's pretty damn impressive for the price. When I saw it was a DBW throttle body, my first guess was in the $500 range.
Might have to find another Maxima or maybe a G35/37 just to get this product! BTW, if you ever decide to go to the dark side and make stuff for the Honda J-series engines, bunch of guys on v6performance would be chomping at the bit to throw some money your way. |
where do I order
|
Can't believe they sold out within the first hour they went up for sale..... I got my order in for the second batch....... Can't wait!
|
Is there a group buy for this?
Any chance you can offer the TB without those coolant passage tubes? I'm assuming most of us have the spacers and bypassed that already. It would look a little cleaner without the tubes. |

We sell these TBs for only $165! :) We buy in VERY large bulk though! Yeah, and I can make a lot of money with designing Honda parts, but I don't want to do that. I'm a huge Nissan enthusiast and I don't have any plans to expand the company outside the Nissan world.

Orders are currently being accepted on our website. You are welcome to cut off the coolant tubes if you want but we are unable to do this for you right now. |
On ur website it says u get more horsepower with this product if ur manifold is gutted ....what exactly do u have to remove ?

It's called an SSIM. |

Q: What does the VIAS Block Plate do? A: This is strictly a block plate kit for those that want to remove their VIAS (Variable Induction Air Control System). That will hurt low end power, but since you are removing an obstruction, it will help top end. You will gain approximately 5-8hp on midrange and top end power and your car will accelerate faster from 0-60mph and in the 1/4 mile. The other use for this block plate is known as the SSIM (Secret Sauce Intake Manifold) on the Maxima and Altima discussion forums. That name was created years ago by a member of the Maxima discussion forums. This involves cutting the shelf out of the main chamber of the upper intake manifold and removing the VIAS assembly. This will still lose low end power and some midrange, but the gains in the top end are very noticeable. It's definitely a modification that is worthwhile if you are serious about increasing top end HP. An extended rev limiter is highly recommended if you want to get the full potential out of the SSIM. |
Nice!!!!!!
