True, and it seems the Stillen have proven gains above that of Injen and after Takeda I am buying the best HP (unless it is not reliable).

Sounds good, thanks for looking into this. My dyno results showed my AF was lower than stock which the guy at the shop I was getting my dyno done said resulted in the lower HP.

Might be true, but does hood close create artificial results that are not real?

The washer fluid is not a huge deal to me, as if I go Injen I will probably just remove the washer fluid anyways.

Yep, I am going Stillen or Injen in the spring unless Takeda comes out with some excellent update.

A few things, I just noticed they did the dyno run in 3rd gear.
Other thoughts I have been going over, suggestions for better intakes:
~Longer pipes to get closer to the pre-made holes
~Solid box...

Well the email is correct in why they do what they do, but at the same time I tested both times hood closed so it should not have been a factor. Both times the engine was hot from the hood closed and...

Takeda itself has been around for a good amount of time. The parent company Afe power has been around since 1999. I think the issue with these are the engine heat this car creates, and with no heat...

Thanks nogood, I would rather have a full refund and be able to buy Injen or Stillen than a half refund and keep the intakes.

Not sure what they plan to do for those who bought the system already, it will all come down to what they redo with the intakes, if they redo anything. They could put Lou's 370z on the dyno and see a...

They have talked about working on some heat shields (like stock or maybe those R2C), they might re-do the tubes completely if that is the problem. I would love to just return them to Lou at Amplified...

Well there are a few things going on, depending on how this next thing goes soon will determine what I push for. I am giving them some time to "work" on them and maybe find a solution.

If anything, go with the Gen 3, short style intakes are not proving to be a good buy with the Z so far, be it heat, not enough tubing, etc., but I would go with Stillen or Injen.

Doing that now, not going to re-dyno as I feel a battery reset probably will not change anything. 150+ miles v. a battery reset probably would be about the same.



I agree, but at the same time...

I would say a good 30% or more shorter, you will feel it. My only issue so far with it has been in the upper RPM range (5500+) it will rattle and I have not found the source or how to control it.
