awesome! Have you heard of the crawford plenum? I've heard of it, and downloaded a video of a Z33 with slicks running 13.0 on the motor with the crawford plenum, but I haven't seen it for sale anywhere or details on it, only the kinetix.
Where do the 350Z tampa people meet up at ?

The Crawford plenum gets good reviews, you lose the stock strut bar and have to send your plenum back to them or pay a core charge. It can be ordered from Crawford. I got the Kinetix V4 today and just got done putting it on. This will be my third. I will give up on Kinteix if this one cracks.

13 flat with just the plenum? That's damn near a second off an average ET! That has to be the greatest engineered product ever. I had no idea something like that could give that much improvment over the stock setup.

Yeah I mean the slicks can't be hurting it either.. But 106 mph isn't bad at all for a Z33.
The mods listed on it were
crawford plenum
aem intake
invidia exhaust
slicks
can't beat that!!!

Nah, not to shabby. I was checking out the umproved plenum and think if someone took the time to weld in a bubble of sorts that goes around the front of the plenum that would provide even more flow for the front cylinders.
Maybe the fact that the stock ecu programming runs so rich at top end is because they know that they were starving certain cylinders by having to pinch off the front of the plenum in order to fit it under the hood. I know its a long shot but it seems to have some logic to it.
So what's the deal Matt, you doing a swap or you thinking bout getting the car itself?
