NissanGuy23 - The Akuma intake does require some cutting to fit, same as the Stillen G3.

Zrider79 - The car is louder and has a nice growl with the M370 and Akuma.

Oh, the main dude (Jon?) at Akuma told me there's no cutting. They put a silicone elbow through the radiator support hole so that it fits without cutting, was my understanding.

Guess that changed.

Well it looks better than the G3 from what im seeing based on the same gains plus the price being noteably less. Also the K&N shape helps with fitment.

Zrider79 · 03-08-2013, 04:51 PM

any updates on m370 dyno ?

RSZED · 03-12-2013, 11:32 AM

love to see the gains on this combo subscribed..

Sales@AAMComp · 03-12-2013, 03:11 PM

can't wait to see the end results with all of your exhaust parts on too

keep us posted!

okczguy · 03-12-2013, 04:30 PM

Sorry all I have been busy at work and did not get the Dyno done with just the M370.

I have since installed the Art Pipes and the AAM Competition S-LINE Midpipe. The car sounds so much better with the Art Pipes and AAM S-Line Midpipe =) even with the stock muffler.

I will try and get a dyno done this week and post the results and then start working on my tune.

Went to the dyno today with the Akuma Intake, M370, Art Pipes and AAM Competition S-LINE Midpipe. Made 286hp/247tq. less than I expected but its still not tuned, I have made some minor changes to the AFR since the Akuma Intake dyno.

Overlay of the Akuma Intake and today's dyno.

I plan on having the car tuned on 3/23/13 and I will post the results after.

SS_Firehawk · 03-13-2013, 08:10 PM

+ rep for the posting, tuning should help a lot. GL with the tuning session. Post your tuned and untuned results in Motordyne's thread too. There is only a couple of us who have posted both.

Sales@AAMComp · 03-13-2013, 09:11 PM

Dave, anyway you can get that hp/tq graph zoomed in more (rescaled) I would start it at 120 end at 320 or so that way you can truly see the before/after, or in your case maybe which part of the powerband is suffering. It's not uncommon for a car to "lose" hp after doing so many breathing mods, this is why a tune is critical to really even things back out

Zrider79 · 03-14-2013, 12:30 AM

I hope both hp & tq increase after tune for ya.

RSZED · 03-22-2013, 04:52 PM

Tune it with UPREV bro.
