My V35 is not FI, but I found it added a tad more power, tad more torque, but more than anything seems to build revs a bit quicker and wants to go harder. Not sure on the effects under FI - I would have thought even better, as the stock plenum is 1). a restriction capping of cylinder 1's air supply, and 2). holds a LOT more heat, so you risk detonation more. After a very spirited drive I can hold my hand on my V+ - with the stock plenum you can't even touch the thing after a short drive.

If you look at PNmad's thread, when he boosted he found that he actually lost power with the 5/16" spacer.

I also believe alot of G35 owners have found similar issues and have gone a thicker spacer?

After three weeks delay finally getting on the dyno Monday afternoon. Made 318atw before injectors and kinetix really interested to see what I can get now I can up the boost to 9 without maxing the injectors. Amped

      Airbox for +T

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do

      Airbox for +T

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
