Vasily, check your PMs.

are you sure it will fitt even with the neck cutt off? I have been thinking about this and it still seems the manifold doesn't slope down enough in the front.

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what Matt's idea is...

He usually isnt because his bro does everything and the way they do everything is the right way.

+1....the hood clearance will still be an issue, I just don't like how he routed it.
Kinitex or whoever could easily change their mold to have a straight inlet and slant down even if needed. I wonder how many orders it would take to get them interested.

There's supposed to be one for the V6 altima going on now. Not sure if they ever finished but it WAS being produced.

Maybe if his bro decides to do it he will let us know and somehow make it seem that he was right all along

and the reason why i said go ahead and try it because i dont see a point in it. and whoever said about the bends in the piping nothing is wrong with it and there is nothign wrong with putting the piping in frotn of the engine. look at the sc guys and where the piping runs.

He's not arguing that it is a small jump in injector size, he is just saying you will not be hitting the full potential of your setup. Some 5.5gen guys gain a substantial amount of power by using a safc to tune their afr. You are just digging your self deeper in a hole by not tunning that car while running larger than stock injectors. I believe that the 5.5 gen runs rich after 5k rpm w/ factory settings. Do yourself a favor and get a piggyback, tune it and enjoy it

so with my 4th gen ECU, i'll definitely be sure to use an AFC. the ECU won't be able to compensate for the larger injectors, and i'll be sure to use the stock 3.5 injectors. No point in doing it wrong the first time.

How many A33Bs have gained power from removing excess fuel from the STOCK 315cc injectors? About 95% of the A33Bs on Maxima.org that have piggyback fuel computers installed have had to remove 5-10% from the MAF voltage while using the STOCK 315cc injectors.
If that still doesn't spell it out for you I don't know what will. But you've already made your point clear that you refuse to agree so it's pointless for me to offer anymore assisntance in this thread.
Have fun with your car and your 11:1 A/F Ratio.

NA intake resistance is far more serious then on a FI car.
Just look at how optimized, ie straight, the stock 350Z setup is. If you care to learn why, read the SAE technical paper on it and the 20% less restriction it caused.

Man everybody is soo smart here with their comments.
first of all about the piping. a couple of 45 degree bends in 3 inch piping will provide intake resistance? prove that.
open loop is when the throttle is wide open. how is 40% open loop? so you are saying i am driving in open loop all the time which means no feedback from o2 sensors?
the ecu still compensates for the added fuel

well... ppl, please do not make silly conclusions, you don't have all the info on the setup, trust me. how about if i said that we are running a z ecu, that should be good enough, right?
the other thing, if someone can prove that a few 45 deg bends on 3" piping create that much of a restriction, i WILL rework the setup.

Dude i just don't see why you are arguing w/ everyone on the ecu/ injector issue. It is stated in the damn FSM. Why do you think all these people bother with piggy backs? It sure isn't becuase they light up pretty. You will run rich and you you will see it if they hook up a wideband to your car on the dyno.

The info you need to read up on is in the FSM. What you typed, and your opinion on what exactly is happening when you say 'compenasate' makes no sense in relation to what the FSM states.

directly from fsm
"The amount of fuel injected from the fuel injector is determined by the ECM. The ECM controls the length of time the valve remains open (injection pulse duration). The amount of fuel injected is a program value in the
ECM memory. The program value is preset by engine operating conditions. These conditions are determined by input signals (for engine speed and intake air) from both the crankshaft position sensor and the mass air
flow sensor."
In addition, the amount of fuel injected is compensated to improve engine performance under various operating conditions as listed below.
<Fuel increase>
. During warm-up
. When starting the engine
. During acceleration
. Hot-engine operation
. When selector lever is changed from “N” to “D”
. High-load, high-speed operation
<Fuel decrease>
. During deceleration
. During high engine speed operation

The mixture ratio feedback system provides the best air-fuel mixture ratio for driveability and emission control. The warm-up three way catalyst can then better reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. This system uses
a heated oxygen sensor 1 in the exhaust manifold to monitor if the engine operation is rich or lean. The ECM
adjusts the injection pulse width according to the sensor voltage signal. For more information about the heated FE
oxygen sensor 1, refer to EC-240. This maintains the mixture ratio within the range of stoichiometric (ideal
air-fuel mixture).
This stage is referred to as the closed loop control condition. CL
Heated oxygen sensor 2 is located downstream of the three way catalyst (manifold). Even if the switching
characteristics of the heated oxygen sensor 1 shift, the air-fuel ratio is controlled to stoichiometric by the signal from the heated oxygen sensor 2. MT
