Agree, but we are not talking G37 here. I like the black Injens as well... maybe i should buy a second Z and buy both intakes...

On a DynoJet, which is in line with the manufacturer's 15whp claim, again, on a DynoJet.

Buy both and put one on the left side and the other on the right.

nogoodname · 08-24-2009, 06:54 PM

a little of both...LOL

Trust me, if I buy anything else besides an intake for my car I would be a single man again. And I don't want that now, do I...... I already had to sleep on the couch for buying one....

I like the Injens and willing to deal with the bumper removal if it turns out the be the dry filter intake system to beat for the 370z. But waiting for the R2C results first.

I was just told that my unit "should" be shipping out today.

I would like to see a dyno with the hood close, but maybe use 2 shop fans to simulate the car moving at speed. That way, we can see if this intake really avoids heat soak or not.

wait a minute... I am probably going to be in the same boat!

I plan to buy most of the mods that can be seen (wheels, aero,etc) first, before I even bring the car home. I can do the rest (intake, exhaust) w/o her even knowing!!!!!

**UPDATE, due to incessant shipping delays and the run around from R2C I have canceled the order. It was initially delayed due to corrections made from nogood's install. But then the shipping was to be Tues/Weds/Thurs and then today, but it has not shipped today and my appointment is for next Weds. I am tired of dealing with this situation so I canceled the order. Sorry for any of you waiting for dyno results.

Life goes on, I am mainly disappointed for those waiting for my dyno numbers, and I didn't want to screw over the shops that had me scheduled next week.

It was weird, they never ignored me, they just kept telling me it's shipping today or tomorrow, but then I'd never get a tracking number. If they had simply told me it would be delayed a week to 10 days to begin with that would have been fine, but to keep stringing me along was not good.

I can dig it. Glad to know which vendors to use and which not to.

Well they have taken very good care of nogood IMO, so I am not willing to say that they should be avoided, maybe I just have bad luck.

As far as I'm concerned, a good business doesn't take care of some of the customers some of the time.
