looks nice, but it honestly looks like it has a longer runner design wich would increase torque! reminds of the gt-40 intake on the mustangs!

While I will plan to install larger injectors in the future, ALL testing was done on OEM injectors. Kinetix V4 Plenum and Intake Manifold Collector (lower) removed and "prototype" installed and dynoed.

- Stainless was not used as any type of cost cutting, as it is considerably more expensive.

Stainless would also be heavier though. Wouldn't that kinda balance out with how much cooler the temp would run? What kinda of power could you expect from this puppy?

I, too just installed a V4 plenum, but I like the more distinctive look of this manifold. It seems more "direct" than the current design using the OEM lower plenum. I'm eager to see hp, torque & pricing numbers.

Yes! Removed the Kinetix V4 and lower manifold and installed "Prototype".
This is the "out of the box", 1st dyno pull without additional tuning.

Put the "Z" on the dyno and did three (3) pulls with Kinetix V4, removed V4 and lower intake, installed "prototype" and did three (3) pulls with NO tuning adjustment. Here are numbers on one chart. Technosquare performed "Limited Flash" on ECU. Rev limit was increased to 7100 rpms. Dyno recording time stopped at 6900 rpms.

Removing Kinetix V4 and lower intake took approximately 30-45 minutes to remove. Kinetix "Prototype" was installed and ready to dyno 60 minutes. Everyone that was monitoring the install/dyno, to include lsdunique when I called him with numbers were shocked. Fifty Five (55) RWHP increase with this "bolt on mod" and I did not reach max rev limit.
