Our 370Z is supercharged and was shipped out to California for events so we don't have access to a 370Z at the moment. Since everyone is wondering about the performance of our air intake hoses vs. HPS, we will offer a FREE set of hoses to anyone in Delaware or Pennsylvania who will come to our shop and let us use their car for dyno testing. We prove the performance of our product, someone gets free hoses. It's a win for everybody. If it takes testing a member's car to prove the integrity of our company and our products, then let's make it happen.

If anyone is local to the Philadelphia/Wilmington area and is interested in participating, please send me an e-mail at julia@mishimoto.com.

Thanks,
Julia Bustard
Also Mishimoto, to make sure you guys don't get in trouble by some people, send a PM to AK370Z or admin to get yourselves setup with a Vendor account so you can get more visibility with your own section.

We are not trying to sell anything. In fact, in reality we are trying to give something away for free. Hence why I am hoping we won't be banned for spam.

Oh no, wasn't implying that you were. Just that if you'd like to at some point, that's how you could set yourself up for that.

Would be nice to have a direct rep on here from your company as I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in your product once it gets some more publicity.

I have the COBB tubes myself, which were the predecessors to the HPS Tubes and everyone says the same things about them. When it comes to 3 of the same thing, it's about who markets the best and who is out first... they set the bar.

Good luck to Mishimoto. I don't see why their product would be of any lesser quality than the HPS tubes, they do great work with radiator hoses (which I need to get myself a set of... ahem Kami ) So looking forward to independent dyno results. Someone jump on a free set for a free dyno too!

Wait, someone dynoed te HPS tubes? I must have missed that. I did a search and couldn't find the post. Can anyone link it here. I'm interested to see what gains are made with just tubes.

Also I'm surprised no one has jumped on a chance for a free mod and dyno. I'd do it but I'm west coast like so many others have also posted.

Yes, they have been dynoed. And they do add power - not quite as much as the gen 3's - from recollection - but then the hot air debate usually kicks in ;-)

I've got the HPS tubes with K&N drop ins and I love the combo - the car feels more responsive and has that little bit of added enjoyment with it.
