What year 350Z did you have?

twin throttle bodies help with the 07/08 and of course the 09~ 370Z

i posted this on another thread a couple days ago. if u get long tubes u will get a decent gain. same with short ram until it warms up in you engine bay

long tube intake dyno

STILLEN Longtube G3 Intakes. Review, Dyno and Impressions.

~20whp gain


short ram dyno

K&N Intakes Installed w/Dyno

~14whp gain


33% difference of hp gained in short ram vs long tube

i'm sure there are many variables that play into this, but these were just some quick examples i found

What part of N/a did you not get?

Proven on the dyno, OK, but any noticeably gains over the 1/4mile exit speeds?
