No, Officer, these are just Cold Air Intakes...




I thought the factory 370Z was 3.6 final for manual and 3.3 for auto right? I might be wrong, but, whichever it is, to answer your question though, yes, the Gears and Gear Ratios are the same as factory.





Chameleon, I know Clint is going to answer your questions for you, we've just been very busy at the shop. I wish I knew more about tuning and such to help you, but Clint and Mike are the most knowledgeable on that subject.

Thanks man!

In our experience with final drives, we actually go the opposite direction. A lot of Manual Trans TT 350Z guys will install automatic 350Z rears in their cars to lower the final drive from a 3.5 to a 3.2. With the lower ratio, the cars actually stay in boost longer, for a higher top end. The N/A road race/auto x 350Z customers usually step up to a 3.9 from Nismo, or Central 20 or whatever. Road race and auto x competition cars benefit from shorter gears, to get from apex to apex quicker. Street turbo Z owners generally like the longer gears better, because the added power from the turbochargers helps the car to REALLY get moving when you are on an open road.
