I like it

Just picked up a used oem plenum and will be doing some r&d on it very soon. Knowing this plenum was made for a na car I believe there are always improvement's that can be applied if someone takes the time and patients. Also keep in mind plastic is a lot better than any metal for heat soak. If no gains are made no gains are made and a true independent review will be posted . This attempt will be to help FI applications and possibly na cars but I wouldn't count on it...
Knowing Motordyne has already done this with success,I'm still curious ..

Just an update, the motor is built and leak down test performed. Everything checks out and the motor should be going back in Monday...

COSMO · 06-05-2016, 05:27 PM

A few pics before the motor went back into the car..

Was on a gtr forum the other day and noticed some tool trying to sell his 370z on there for over 100k. As I laughed my @ss off as they were giving him **** for claiming he broke all kinds of records with the car. He also said he would be willing to trade for a gtr. lmao!!!

TopgunZ · 06-05-2016, 06:54 PM

So why did you go this route instead of getting a gtr?

COSMO · 06-05-2016, 07:03 PM

After having many z car's I just like them, what a great platform to build off of. Plus I do a little real estate on the side and just can't justify spending 100k on a car when I could buy a house to flip for a modest profit. I have no where near that amount vested in my car and it's paid for anyway.

Hope to have more pics soon...

Moar boost!

COSMO · 06-19-2016, 05:29 PM

It's ALIVE!!!!!! Cranked up today but it was short lived due to not having the right spacer for my aftermarket csc...

COSMO · 06-19-2016, 08:51 PM

Getting close to needing some therapy for a lack of boost since its been so long!!!! Is there such thing as a boost virgin? Hell Im ready to have my cherry popped again...

Thought I would throw out much thanks to bryan for taking on such a task like this one. And trust me there was a lot of mess to clean up from my old pal bobby. The communication with bryan has been spot on and he's a very easy person to work with and very straight forward. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to build or do anything for your z car...

COSMO · 06-24-2016, 09:13 AM

Had a bit of a delay due to needing another bushing/spacer since I have the hd csc. Hopefully soon should be ready for some numbers. The bad thing is it is the heat of summer.. Based on that I'm not looking to break any records or anything, just ready for some BOOOST!!!

How long has your car been apart?
