The other use for this block plate and considered the best option as far as performance is known as the SSIM (Secret Sauce Intake Manifold). 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 engine tune and extended rev limiter is recommended if you want to get the full potential out of the SSIM.

I don't know how I missed this post. I'm sorry for the late late reply.

We are not expecting to have any deals anytime soon. Right now, they are pretty tough to keep in stock. Both the Premium and Basic VIAS Block Plate Kits.

The loss in low end is very very small. I'd say over 9 out of 10 can not notice the loss in low end, but they can easily notice the gain in top end HP above 5K rpm.

If you want better low end and midrange HP, your best bet is to install the NWP Engineering Thermal Intake Spacers.

Recieved and installed the Block Plate today. I must say this has been my best experience in ordering anything online. Thank you for the quick shipping, great customer service and product, and excellent, detailed instructions.

I definitely noticed a change in the upper RPM range.

I'll be ordering the spacers very soon. Thanks again Aaron.

Sorry for the late reply.

Q: What does the VIAS/SSIM 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 5hp on midrange and top end power.

The other use for this block plate is known as the SSIM (Secret Sauce Intake Manifold). 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 engine tune and extended rev limiter is highly recommended if you want to get the full potential out of the SSIM.

These are the same prices that you have on your website. I thought you'd offer a discount for org members. I guess I'll get one somewhere else.

Yes, these prices are the same prices also found on our website. I'm sorry, we do not have any sales or discounts currently going on right now. We have offered exclusive Maxima.org member promotions in the past, but we have nothing active going on right now. Please let me know if you have any questions.
