V Upgrade Week!

[itpesaf]

can't wait for my upgrade week I'm thinking of a motordyne plenum spacer in the not too distant future

[runner4life]

Worth it. Didn't notice massive gains, but i reckon it makes the engine roar a bit louder

just ordered MD 5/16 Plenum spacer my up grade week is coming

sam did you notice any increase in low end acceleration with the spacer, luv your passion

[Haino]

Cobey I want that Apexi Neo, $375 done, where u live?

[runner4life]

Well worth it, don't know if it was a bit of a placebo effect, but i reckon its better in the mid range. The 2nd pull from 60-70 to 100 is phenonemal, especially now with the shift kit. Changes feel like a manual!

But a tad of low end, not much.

Thanks man! Love the V! How can anyone not enjoy this car!

Strange you didn't see much of an improvement Sam. When I fitted my Kinetix upper plenum I could feel not only slightly more power, but much more torque over the whole rev range!

[Nightcrawler]

Oh, and I have just spent the last 3 hours under my car pulling off the lower control arms (to press in new bushes tomorrow), removing my mid-pipe (to be fixed tomorrow) and removing my drivers side Kinetix high flow cat (which I had bottomed out so badly it has bent and got a rather large crack in it - again to be fixed tomorrow). This is how the poor car looks at the moment. So I am not so much in love with her today (and yes, before anyone comments she is currently FILTHY. But will have a big wash, cut & polish and final hand polish before a club car show this weekend!)

[runner4life]

Noe that you mention it. It does have a bit extra.

[Nightcrawler]

Lower control arm bushes are now pressed in, mid-pipe resonator removed and hfc cracks welded up .. now to put it all together tonight before work tomorrow

What happend night?

[Nightcrawler]

Bottomed out my hfc so much that it bent and cracked. Easy weld up and it is now back in I might have to raise up the front another 10mm so I stop hitting my cats

Nooooiiceee - I think you may have started a trend my friend, it looks amazing! Kinda like the 2001-3 m3 exhausts

[runner4life]

Thanks man, I think it looks freaking unreal! and sounds unbelievable!

[GED59]

woooo hoooooo just fitted MD plenum spacer, a lot easier than i was expecting. Me and a mate did it in 1hr 10min, and we were not rushing. Definately more power and the sound with the Z tube, K&N filter is orgasmic. Transgo Shift kit next.

My V upgrade week is starting this week. $1299 BC coilovers from just jap, strut brace and sway bars. All arriving within a week..... Doesn't sound like much but this is huge for me.

YO i just ordered this yesterday for $250, how was it to install? I've been searching everywhere for someones feedback that actually has this. I also have Injen CAI stuck in Australia post (about 10 workers got the sack because they were illegal immigrants LOL)
