MREV question

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 6:55 am

can you put an MREV or MREV2 on a 2003 coupe 5AT with a 5/16 spacer and the ztube/popcharger/heatshield combo and if so how much HP at the wheels would that give you?

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 7:37 am

Yes you can , but you wont get the full power out of it , BUT!! you get the CORE REBATE!!

and i think you can only put MREV2 without a SPACER on a NON -REV-UP engine

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 7:42 am

what about an MREV with a spacer?

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 7:55 am

for an 03 . DO NOT!! do it .. your just basically wasting money on the spacer at that time , only go with MREV2 without spacer on non revup , and with the rebate it will be about the same price as just a spacer maybe a little more

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 7:57 am

about how much HP would just an MREV2 and the ztube popcharger heatshield give me tho??

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:07 am

i have no idea lol , maybe from stock to 300-310 , maybe a little less

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:10 am

better than 280 like the stock 5AT

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:14 am

i think you CAN put an MREV and a SPACER but ... you need fuel and ECU mods .. so thats is why i didnt mention it ..

OOPS... i said it ,

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:19 am

how hard would that be to do? /how much would it cost

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:21 am

ECU - 1-2k Fuel Pump - a few hundred,Fuel Rod - 200-300Fuel Injectors .. a few hundred ..

in the end , just stick with either MREV2 no spacer, or just spacer

Post by **thechronic** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:22 am

k LAST question (i think), if im only going to get one, which would give me the most power in the end?

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:24 am

they , by THEY , its from everythingg35 and from the makers of MREV , that the MREV2 would produce more than just the spacer on average

Post by **G_whizz** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:37 am

Double check with Joe at everythingg35...I believe you CAN NOT put an MREV2 on an 03... you have to go with just the MREV

Post by **Gimli G35** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:40 am

i swear we already had this post like a month ago lol

Post by **G_whizz** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:54 am

LOL..I'll bet you for pink slips we'll get it within another month

So much misinformation...

From Motordyne:

"The Motordyne MREV 2 Manifold high-torque plenum mod designed specifically for the VQ "REVUP" engine. This is the engine in all 2005 MT G35's and Track/Anniversary edition 350Z's and all 2006 MT 350Z's and G35's."

03-04 Spacer only, if you put in the MREV2 the car will run lean without a tune.

05-07 MREV2 + spacer for max gain...no tune needed.

WOW! i feel so good knowing that I already knew the answer to his question and I started this forum not knowing anything lol..i hope you guys realize i am trying to make an effort lol...i have spent countless hours reading hundreds of threads just to stick some of the info into my dome lol..i am slowly doing so... quick question to anyone out there..what do you guys think about the nismo cold air intake..i read it comes included with the water diverter...or like many of you..would you still recommend the JWT pop charger. I promise once i get to your guys's level, I will take off a load of most of you and start answering some of the questions for you guys so you guys could relax. Until then, i need a mentor to take me under there wing and teach me. Once that happens, I will be happy to start answering questions because i realize some of you get annoyed answering the same questions time after time lol.

Someone take me under there wing AIM: AARES23I WONT LET YOU GUYS DOWN!

LOL... you will be a great and powerful jedi one day!!

I still don't know 10% of what half of these guys on here know...so don't feel bad.

I went with JWT myself...all of them have similar gains some maybe have1-2 more hp. I prefer the look of the JWT when I pop my hood.

Post by **ArEs23x** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 3:42 am

have you ever taken on an apprentice g_whizz lol...remember when nobody believed in Anakin and everyone said he was too old, but that one jedi believed in him no matter what anyone said. Then it turned out he became one of the all time best jedi's ever eventhough he joined the darkside lol... who is willing to take me as their apprentice? haha

The answer to the air intake answered most of my questions, I was confused because the nismo was claimed a 11hp increase and the pop charger was only 6.5hp..den again the cold air u run more of a risk allowing dirt to get into your engine..so ill follow everyones lead with the JWT lol

The Nismo is a great intake! The reason people go with the JWT is because it's cheaper and you get the same level of HP gain. AEM also makes a similar CAI...it's really your preference.

If I had to do it over, I'd get the Stillen version of the JWT. The fit and finish looks a little better than the JWT-mainly the heat shield.

Can I take a shot in the dark and assume your talking about this stillen lol

http://www.g35parts.com/9083/o...d=396

I am sure this question has been asked before, but what are you personal thoughts on the K & N typhoon series which serves as both a short ram and cold air intake

Post by **joe603** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 4:10 am

That's the one!

Post by **ArEs23x** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 4:21 am

the only reason why i wanted to get the JWT is cuz mostly everyone has chosen it, but theres so many intakes..short ram and cold air. the only thing that scares me about cold air is excessive dirt getting into your engine...den again the nismos and AEM look tempting, But there is no point in asking for advice if im not going to follow it, so ill go with your pick on the stillen. thanks

what do you think about this btwhttp://www.stillen.com/product...&c=PE

Post by **joe603** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 4:29 am

Cold air is a gimick. The car comes with a ram-style intake that will give the short ram intakes plenty of fresh air.

As for the transmission mod it's not cheap, but it will transform your AUTO tranny and safely give you much firmer shifts. I did a similar mod to my F-body AUTO trans. The 1st gear engagement was much quicker than stock, not to mention the up-shifts and down-shifts were very quick too. If you're squeamish about mods, I'd have a shop do it. There is a lot you can screw up...

Post by **ArEs23x** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 4:37 am

oh i will never dream about touching my car on my own expecially not knowing crap about them lol..but you do recommend the trans upgrade if you had the $$ and time to be without a car for a couple days? should i do that first..or wait to do a couple mods and do it afterwards? and would that interfere with any mods i might wanna do like a TT..thx for the 411 btw

Post by **joe603** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 4:49 am

The trans mod will actually increase the life of your AUTO. The time that it takes for the gears to change is wearing down at your trans bands. The kit will reduce this lag. However, it will not make it "stronger", so you'll still be limited to the amount of HP you can safely put through it. 400HP at the wheels seems to be the accepted number.

Depending on how long you have before putting on an FI system, I'd do the intake and exhaust mods first. (there is no sense in doing an intake mod if you're going FI and will replace those parts anyway).

I don't think many have had the transmission mod done, but it's definitely worth it.

Post by **Gimli G35** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 5:01 am

damn motodyne has soo much misprints ..... lol .. everythingg35 says hmm put the MREV2 in an 03 with no spacer = no fuel mods ...

they say , MREV2 = mods ...

IM CONFUSED!!!! , i think ill just stick with an 05-06 lol

Post by **ArEs23x** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 5:05 am

yea i kinda already knew about the intake not being worth it if im planning on going FI..so i will hold off on that...i guess since i cant do a coupe exhaust like some ppl said even if i did some customer piping..i would get the stillen gen2..the mrev2...5/16 spacers..trans upgrade..and crank pulley..would any of those be replaced if i went TT? someone said i should go TT first, but i dont know if my car would be able to handle it being all stock..

Post by **joe603** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 5:08 am

I would think that the designers of the product would be correct...Everything G35 is right, you don't need "fuel mods", you need an ECU tune to use the MREV2 in non-REVUP engines due to the lean condition.

The MREV crap is a little confusing.

Post by **thechronic** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 7:16 pm

ya after all this confusion i think im just gonna go with the 5/16 spacer haha
