SSIM dyno sheets
#41
Dan im just going to wait til youve done this mod since you have an extra manifold to play with.
I just cant afford doing this mod and "in case" having some issues after the SSIM ... Let me know how it works out with you first Dan cause no other 6th gen'ers has done this mod/dyno it either ... right now the kinietix manifold is looking good.

Like discussed numerous times, the Kinetix is just a "bling factor for the 6th gen" (no disrespect to those that have it). There has been no sufficient data showing significant gain with the Kinetix, but there has been significant data showing the gains of the SSIM. Many have done it while there has been almost no one with issues except for one guy...but that was because he had a bad coil-pack after reinstalling everything and he was mis-firing (something along those lines)
That's exactly what I was told, and visually it doesn't look any different either.

Please don't...unless you actually have money to spend/experiment with (which judging from your planned mods, I think you do )

I think im just going to take a step back and wait and not rush into anything until this is done on a 6th gen.
I guess Dan its up to you now dude , the sooner you get it done the sooner I wil find out my answer on a 6th gen.

Yeah but didnt Kevin007 made some hp with the Kinetix ? I know hes on juice but hes running 12s with that manifold.. I dont think Chern did a dyno before and after with that manifold either.

I'm not a VQ guru. I just spend time under my hood, and if you did the same, you would know what I mean, re: the mod in question. If you saw what was done to accomplish this mod, you would understand how it would affect the power curve in both engines.
So, explain to me WHY it would be different for the 6th gen?

Maybe thats your job or career , I dont spend hours under the hood any longer. I have a life and a business to run, Before I even post this Ive ask numberous people around my town like 95BlkMax ,nismology,nax , and few others before I made a judgment.. since I was getting a mixed reviews on this mod.
For the most part some of the names above or the ones Ive talk to hae VQ35 Swap 4th gen , I dont see many 5.5 gens around my state that has done this mod only 4th genners which dont have much to lose.
I have a newer gen and I dont want to end up throwing codes or having the intake manifold flutterings or bogging out. If I do the SSIM mod and something mess up , its not like I can find a 04 and up manifold in the for sale section.
Ive read this thread and everyone has stated what this mod can do , Im not concern about the hp or losing low end power, What im concern is no 6th genners has done it and Im skeptical that knowing my luck that if I go fourth with this something may happen. It was a PITA pulling those back 2 (12mm) bolts from the elbow already, Since the 5.5 gen has more space than a 6th gen.. it just take longer with me dropping 12 mm wrenchs down behind the firewall, bloody knuckles and scratchs.
Im getting mix reviews from guys that deals with VQ all day. If you hand me a KA24DE and I'll tear it down and make it a DET for you , if you hand me a SR and and a gt2857 and i'll give you 450whp... You hand me a VQ and I dont have the slighest idea where to start on this motor since im new to it but im learning each day.
I ask question cause I dont want things Fking up on a new daily driven car and having the wifey or family at my neck for having down time on the car. My days before being grease monkey is over, right now I figure I would try out the spacers since I had to get into the motor and change out the spark plugs and the idea of doing the SSIM cross my mind as well as boost. I want to get the most mods out of it and since I have manifold out I figure I would do this. maybe you understand if you were in my shoes and wouldnt be so defensive when newbies ask question because they are concern about the Cons

Yeah FTR dropped wrenches and bloody knuckles are a 5.5 gen thing also
Anyways I wouldn't worry to much about those things, RE: it will be the same for your 6th gen, no codes. However you need to be careful as hell cutting out the shelf, it is entirely possible to fubar your manifold,.

VIAS on the A33B is dual stage, yours is not unless you have something more than an RPM switch to control it. So again, it’s not a direct comparison.
The data/information to help all of you make an informed decision is out there. If any of you are on the fence, get off of it, and don’t do it. If you have to think twice don’t do it.

for the guys that have done this SSIM, did you gut the whole shelf from one side of the IM to the other? I did it this past weekend and there was a small part that i wasnt able to reach, will that matter? also did your idle go up once you start your car? mine comes back down after its warn but when it 1st starts up it seems higher than normal?? any info would be huge help.

in the end, you can see that the SSIM is worth it, especially with altered cam timing. i made power all the way to 7100 without it dropping off really, stayed flat even at the uber lean level

i dont know that you would make power out to 7800 rpm, maybe with a good porting you could get close, but in the end they are still stock length runners. plus, i dont know what "rev kit" you are saying, but you need more than just rod bolts to get out to that RPM safely. either way, maybe with the right adjustments you can make power pretty far, but i think sr20den showed that even the ssim didnt make power to 7500, let alone 7800
