MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

Kastley85891 · 12-29-2010, 01:05 PM

GZ3 - I ran an OBX, Topspeed and currently an Ebay unit that set me back, what for it 99.99 to the door, funny enough its the best fitting one yet.

Just for thread info - this is purely a 'bolt on' comparo/review, I will not be tuning the vehicle in any way to maximise gains, on one of my previous dynos the vehicle was optimised so dyno this time should really push the ART pipe to match or better a more modified vehicle.

I enjoy all this stuff, looking forward to see what the M370 mani will do when bolted up with these and compared non tune and
with tune.

Will have to purchase another AP to do that or just get me an UPREV license and hardware.

Rest assured all data will be up Friday evening with video of dyno.

on the 2nd hand. My friend, these ART test pipes are legit gains because they were made for 350Z HR(they are not new) and they made good amout of power over HFC and normal Test pipes.

search in 350z forum for ART test pipe thread made from Motordyne. you will see links of reviews from customers at the first page.. you will be sold trust me..

That is comparing apples to oranges.

I don't care what is made on an HR 350Z. I don't have an HR 350Z, I have a 370Z. That is like saying headers on an LT1 engine make good power, so they will deff make good power on the LS1. Not always the case.

If there are updated graphs for that manifold that show no power loss through the band, please link me. I would love to see it. Seems kinda silly to me as to why it wasn't posted originally.

OP, that really sounds great. I look forward to seeing all of this come together!

I see the point your making, trust me i do, but the arguement here is science VS logic,...the helmholtz resonance is already a scientifically proven phenomenon. Tony from motordyne used to be (still is) a rocket scientist, now a car guy with his own company.
