What did you do with your Z today II

kenchan

oh noez... but i have to take my older kid to school, do PTA stuff am and pm, while doing house chores so not so much all fun and games for me any weekend.



hahaha! that's true, mr.alcheng. lol

that's wat i have.. HPS and K&N combo.

R2C'are good too. i had them last year but sold. it has nice gains as far as response, but cai's in general were too noisy for me so i went with the HPS/K&N drop-ins setup. i might go back to stock tubes and just run K&N drop-ins. nothing wrong with the HPS, i dont sense any gains from the tubes alone so i rather have factory bits in this case.

I actually had GenIII sitting in my garage a week ago, but after 2 months of thinking i decided to allocated the $500 towards other parts first. So i Sold them

i c! yah, honestly speaking i think the K&N drop-in approach should be more than adequate. even the amuse 350Z track car used stock intake box/tubes... the post-MAF is cool to look at but i doubt it has any performance benefits.

nick you want mine?

But those long tube intakes looks so sweet in there!

yah, they do look good. but then again, it's noisy especially at high RPM... the car sounds so much smooooother with stock tubes and box. that's how i like mine.

You are Mr Smoooth Kenman.
Let me try to explain my issues with the ZL1. It is not how long it takes to get one. My issue is that I have no proof that even though I have put $2000 down and my financing is fine that I have a car ordered. The dealers where given only a certain # of allocations for ZL1's. From what I've heard not all dealers received an allocation. I don't know if my dealer even has an allocation to use. If they do not then they actually cannot order my car. The dealer has thus far been unable or unwilling to give me an order #. GM Connects.com is an on line tracking service and they have said that there is absolutely no reason for a dealer to withhold the order# if in fact they ordered a vehicle for you. Getting back to the time it takes to receive a car, I've learned that nobody is taking delivery till probably March 23rd. Sorry for the long winded post but this is what is going on and why I'm really upset over this.

For free? Sureee! haha j/k

I know what you mean about the Post MAF's. Honestly this is why I haven't bothered touching my intakes. When you say you felt a gain you just mean throttle response? Not actual HP? And why do you say it was too noisy? I've never actually been in another Z with an aftermarket intake (most of the local guys have the drop ins LOL).
