I'll only call you if you're late for dinner - but maybe that's like the Kinetix manifold ?? Although it looks like a natural for a 350Z.... Anyway - something new to fuss over.

looks a lot like the kinetix. doubt its anything useful. another 900 manifold for 6th gen blingers to get excited about.

on the other hand, decreasing plenum size toward the end of flow is good and polish if its the same inside is good. probly makes a little power, probly works like a polished SSIM, or worse

It's definitely intended for RWD. You're right, Das, it's probably just going to be more engine bling for 6th genners and Z owners with too much money.

Knock-offs are cheaper, but are (more importantly) undercutting the sales of the products that were reverse-engineered. When these companies stop producing certain parts because everyone is buying a knock-off what are you left with? You can thank the people that buy legit products if that doesn't happen.


(speaking in general of course)

The shape/design reminds me of a custom IM that I saw on a 1000hp BMW 3 series yesterday. Only thing I would mention is that the one on the BMW was a performance enhancement unlike a polished Kinetix knockoff.

its not quite just a knock off, the plenum size decreases as it gets further from the inlet

+1 I think it may be a slightly better design than the kinetix. But over 1000 shipped to my door, I'll stick with my stock modified IM.
