For looks alone I'd love to have one of this but the price is kinda high for no performance gains. Even if this thing showed some power gains Id already have one lol

Side note I gotta get online soon and order some red line oil from you guys. Gotta do my winter oil change to get ready for spring. Also I just got a barely used z1 34 row off a forum member and meant to ask you guys how much extra oil I need for that?

Wish this intake had some power gains ... As others said I'd jump on this but damn what a shame... I'm not coughing up coin just for eye candy appeal.

Why aren't other companies jumping to make our platforms parts? Geez our market for aftermarket parts especially engine mods is so damn limited.


I would expect a car like a Saturn to have a market this small but come on man. We have a sports car.

There's just not power to be made form an intake manifold so when that happens companies will always have a hard time marketing items as such. There's no reason in this economy companies are going to put there profits into R&D.

But that intake manifold makes me happy in the pants when i look at it. A 0hp loss would almost be worth it

Could we get some dyno charts of the kinetix and stock manifolds?

Just to see what the curves look like?
