Dynatek Intake

[dynatek]

BYW-There was never sufficient interest to justify the production run or the manifold would already be in production. We got a total of three people willing to step up to the performance gains offered by the dyno testing-that's 3, not 10 (get your facts straight and stop trying to impress the other memebers).

[Red Devil]

Why would we sell the one intake that will be used for fixturing the production

Because only 1 or 2 people actually give a crap about it? That way you can sell it too them for a large amount of money like you already planned on doing for this "group buy"?

Ok...status check...we have a possible 5 of 10.

That's the midpoint.

[Skim302]

I would do it but $700 is a bit much for me. If the price was lower I don't think there would be any problem getting 10 people interested.

Not really sure why all the hostility exists here when all we are trying to do is provide a product for an application that has received no attention from the after market. The intake manifold adds more power than a CAI and cat back combined. The intake manifold is not a money making deal for us, the only reason it is being considered is because I happen to own and like the car. The CFI systems we (Dynatek Racing) offers for V8 applications sells for nearly $7,000 per unit. There is so little profit in making even 10 manifolds that it is hardly worth the time when we could be selling the V8 systems. I know everyone that can't afford the intake will say it is too expensive, but the cost is inline with the power gains offered. If interest exist, I will follow this up with a trye long-tube header (we made as much as 15 hp and 15 ft-lb on the Scion Xd application and only slightly less with the Yaris long tube header. We are very good at what we do and have already exceeded 133 wheel hp with our Versa (NA).

Because only 1 or 2 people actually give a crap about it? That way you can sell it too them for a large amount of money like you already planned on doing for this "group buy"?

Glad you are doing what you are. Some just can't see spending money on a car that is supposed to save most people money.

But others are happy to mod the car to their liking and I see that if the gains are true the price isn't bad. But given our group, money is at a premium at this time.

Thanks and keep us updated.

f*ck it! count me in on this! if none of these other p****** want to do it ill jump in on this... how hard was the install? is it going to fit under my strut brace? i have a cusco, i think it sits lower than the DC and stillen...

Obviously you've never done any serious installs. With my 240 you've got to remove the throttle body, injectors, e.t.c. So yeah, they're usually a little bit hard.

How about you think before you open your mouth and insult those of us with common sense, mkay?

Question: If you sell highly overpriced stuff to Mustang owners, why bother trying to sell overpriced stuff to us Versa owners? We aren't trying to overcompensate like most Mustang owners.

[superskunk]

why is that you always have to sh*t on peoples ideas and concepts? get the hell out of here with your nonsense...

Or you could just keep your big mouth shut....that'd probably be too hard for you though.

[superskunk]

why dont you go back to the 240 forums? or did someone put you in your place there too?

[Red Devil]

Because it's just that much more fun to antagonize someone as immature as you

[superskunk]

yeah ok... youre the lame *** who talks **** to everyone on here about what parts they look to buy and what they want to do to their cars, when youre the broke *** whos rolling stock rite? stfu

Ohhhhh

[Onyxblue]

Agree with your comments, but the language should be less harsh.Just my 2 cents

We had this discution before: econo car vs. mods. It's easier to say "no gains, or no sense modifying a versa, buy a 240 or a G35". We should thank to the guys that started modifying their Vs: that's why we have Howto articles and advices and we all took advantage of the early "pioneers" and their research to make the V better - both exterior/interior and performance.

In the Versa? Of course I'm stock. I choose not to buy things that are pointless for my car. I have my 240SX for all that. I'm not gonna try and make this car something it's not. Why exactly would I want to ruin a perfectly fine new car with things that could potentially void the warranty?

What exactly is the point of buying a new car just to void the warranty? Usually that's why you buy new, so if something breaks you don't have to pay to fix it.

Here's a thought, everyone who usually says they bought this instead of a Sentra SE-R or something similair do it because they say they couldn't afford it.

Sentra SE-R MSRP:$20,660.00Nissan Versa SL:$15,890 +$700 intake +$200 header +$260 CAI +$900 Strut Assy. +$150 Strut Brace +$360 AB Exhaust +$720 Wheels(4) +$805 For full Stillen Body kit =$19985 in car price and mods.That's not including the other crap like tint, aftermarket radio, seats, e.t.c. Not to mention the price in labor if you don't do it yourself. All that hassle to try and make it sportier when you could've just gone and bought an SE-R AND kept your warranty intact!

I apologize though. I'm sorry I've made better decisions and tried to be a little more mature when dealing with someone as assinine as you. And to think, I'm younger than a 25 year old who acts like he's 17.

ive spent less than $15k TOTAL.

what skunk is saying is anything you ever say is negative, all of it. there is no reason for it

[superskunk]

if you dont like to hear about all of our bad choices the dont read what we have to post... you seem to forget that the 240 was in the same position when it first came out... nissan never wanted it to be a performance car... thats what the Z has always been for... now look where it is... poke fun and laugh, but someday you mite just get blown away by B-segment car...

Ironically, just like a $700 intake on an econocar!

yes i do agree with that. but im not going to be an ******* about it, if somebody wants to waste thier money on it more power to them...haha

[BioVector]

Look at my original thread topic. Who is INTERESTED in this intake manifold? I am NOT asking for your opinions, what you think about it, if you think modding a Versa is pointless, or whatever else. If you are not interested, don't say anything. This thread was not for you. Enough with all the negative crap. It is not needed.

And yet.....http://www.nissancommercials.c...x.wmv

Oooops, did I post a link about a commercial they made calling it a sports car???? FYI, the 240SX in Japan was a more serious car, i.e. the Silvia. It came with the higher hp SR20DET and had more pep than the NA 240SX.

And....http://www.nissancommercials.c...1.mpg

How exactly are they in the same position. Are they marketed the same??? I must be missing something......

[Red Devil]

By no means am I saying otherwise. If someone wants to buy a relatively pointless, overpriced waste of money more power to them. Just so long as we're not labled "p******" when we decide not to do something stupid.

but the fact that you feel the need to say anything at all....and everything else in the past, why even say anything ive never oince seen one of your posts that wasnt negative

anyways i have to go to work so i can buy more useless crap

That's 2! HA!

[superskunk]

huh... i guess i was wrong! oh well....

[dynatek]

Okay, obviously Red Devil has major insecurity issues. The CFI systems were actually designed for the Cobra market (original Shelby and replicas), not the Mustang guys. Here is something you should consider-every car needs or deserves to be modified. Hell, I have a 1.0L turbo sprint that we set 2 land speed records with (and it get 50 mpg). Versa owners want more power just like Honda, Scion or even Musatng owners. I'd ask you to chek your facts but your intention ont his forum is obviously not to inform but to inflame. Installation of the intake is easy and does not require removal of the injectors (they are in the cylinder head). You are of course entitiled to your opinion on pricing, but know that the Scion and yaris owners do not share your opinion. If we could cast these and sell 100 or 1000 intakes, then the price would come down, but for fabricated aluminum intakes (with the necessary research and development behind the design) the retail cost is directly in line with the production cost and power gains offered.

Obviously you've never done any serious installs. With my 240 you've got to remove the throttle body, injectors, e.t.c. So yeah, they're usually a little bit hard.

[Red Devil]

I was only talking about the SR when it came to the intake manifold. And how exactly does thinking the intake manifold is overpriced equate to insecurity issues?

Care to explain why exactly EVERY car deserves/needs to be modified? So the Ferrari Enzo deserves to be modified? A Koenigsegg CCXR needs to? Sounds like you're the one who needs something. Also sounds like you could use some english courses and a spellcheck. Not all Versa owners want what you seem to think we all need.

If we really need it that badly then reduce the price to something more reasonable so more people can get it.

[mightyversa]

Man, all I know is that when push comes to shove, I will have one and nearly 9 more others. We will have the first one of its kind and on a special order basis.

Seems like bragging rights to me, but if you cant afford it or dont think the price is justifiable, guess what......DONT GET IT!!!

So as it stands, this ONE AND ONLY product for our Versa's, the Dynatek Performance Intake Manifold, will be offered to those who have money to burn, who is willing to be different, who wants to stand out from the rest.

This product is not for the cheap arse, jealous, wanna be out in front but cant afford an ACTUAL PERFORMANCE PART and FINALLY PAY THE PIPER for HP gains like the rest of the world kind of guy.....and as this thread stands, we all know who they are.

If this price is not justifiable for you, then no problem, we kindly understand why you dont want it!!

BUT.....

If your cheap and dont want to pay X amount of dollars for something that has proven results and you know it in your own heart that you really want it but crap on everyone else, then maybe the world of automotive tuning is not for you. Save up some money and one day you might own it!!
