yes you read that right. we now have frankencar intakes for 3.5 altimas sounds just the same and feels really nice. our customre was VERY happy. so anyway we did the install and what not and went ot race on the mass pike
we raced three time from 70-75 to about 120-130 and everytime same outcome. i won by about one car, he's a stick with the same intake so it was all good. very good race and very nice guy.

 

, did both car sound the same?

 

 

yes they sound the same at one point i think we hit the same rpms or something and the intakes reverberated against each other, like resonance, they are so deep and loud.

 

I enjoyed tonight very much so

Awesome! You guys are "rollin" for real! Did you do a slow pull from 70+ or did you jump the full car and hold it? One car in that range of speeds is significant enough. Those Altimas got some nads too apparently? Too bad you didn't race him before the FCI install. Musta sounded wicked with the two of you wot beside another? Is this guy going to dyno?

 

I like how you use your pannel air filter as a tool mat.

 

Haha... okay okay... you were pullin away from me a bit... but only because Matt was weighing me down. LOL Great race, though.

Okay, bottom line people- This intake ROCKS. Steve and Matt have done a fantastic job... took all of a half hour to put it on, and we were goofing around. You really have to hear the sound.... awesome. Cruising around, there's hardly any difference in sound from the stock intake. But when you gun it.... my oh my. It's a beast. And most importantly, you can definitely feel the improvement.

So, it was my 2K2 Altima vs. Steve's 2K2 Maxima on the Mass Pike (both with Frankencar Intakes)... started off in 3rd going about 70-75... Steve gradually pulled ahead, a little more so as we climbed higher into the triple digits. But hey, the Altima had a hell of a showing.... we were running side by side for a ways


One helluva happy customer,

Take that SCC!!!

 

damn that's really good to hear, i'm looking forward to stage 3 and 4 in a couple of months

is there gonna be a before/after intake dyno on the altima?

 

Are those supposed to be videos? Because if they are, they aren't working for me. I copied and pasted the URLs into windows media player and they didn't work. Invalid Media Type error.

 

they aren't vid, just click them they are pics. and the altima guy said he might dyno but it will be an after one only, we will get a rough idea, most 5-spd V6 get like 199hp ish.

 

great.. looks like i have to put more pics and project car stats on the page...

 

yes you do,

where's your 5-spd MAX

 

When I clicked them I just got ascii characters, thats why I thought they might be vids. Still no worky....

 

uh oh...maxima's lil brother wants in on some of the action as welll

 

You should have switched drivers after the run so we can tell whether the Maxima is faster, or if the advantage you got was because of the driver.

 

just Curious if the intakes for the 2k's were ready to ship yet?

Thanks

 

Yes they are ready to ship. Goto www.frankencar.com to place your order, make sure you email steve@frankencar.com to let him know what car you have and year.

What colors are the 2k-2k1 tubing available in as of now?

 

Are you saying that there were two people in the Altima and one in the Max? Is Matt a chub?

What is the deal here?

 

nice setup, i would love to see how far back i am behind the 2k2 altima and maxima.

 

Matt weighs a $1.05 wet. He's a small guy.

 

How does it sound on a 2k1? I watched the vid on the 2k2, it sounds exceptional. Does the 2k1's sound come close to that? Ill buy one if it does.

 

Very close, not as loud, but you wont get much louder on a 2k1 anyways

Who weighs themselves in currency? Deli's?

SuDZ

 

It was better than typing "a buck o 5".

 

ya matt's skinny and i'm a fat ***, plus my car is loaded and the altima has very few options. and the 2k intakes will be available in blue or silver and won't ship till late next week. we aren't taking orders yet. the price will be 145 plus shipping.

 

When Will 4th gen's be avalible?

 

about a month.
