HAHA I have that second picture on my phone lol.

I know that if something goes wrong then they will blame whatever you have that's not theirs, but if something like that happens just put the stock one back on and take it to the dealership.

Installing it within the Versa doesn't void the warranty though.

"Under the Influence" means that there is evidence of drugs/alcohol in your system. "While Intoxicated" means that you are high/drunk/stoned, and much more severe.

If the officer believes that you are affected by the one beer/cocktail that you drank he can give you a DUI citation, DWI means that you are over the limit. In states that differentiate between the two.

What ever happened to the manifold that improved power at lower engine speeds?

This iteration of the manifold is the best combination, one that offers no loss in power in the low and mid range and sizable gains at the top. Other combinations may have offered greater low or mid-range gains, but lost power elsewhere. We wanted to have a system that offered no trade offs in power.

Forgot to mention, if you follow the shape of the two power curves, you will see that the new intake from Dynatek offers sizable gains from 35 mph to 55 mph (roughly 3000 rpm to 4500 rpm).

The intake manifold can be installed in roughly 2 hours (we can do it in less). It is easy and requires not modifications of any kind. Complete instructions are included with photos. As for mileage, we noticed a minor 1.5-2 mpg increase when we had it on during runs from Vegas to So Cal, but I would like to run a more formal test to provide clear cut data. We know there is no loss in mileage, but would like to document the gains offered.

I know you guys say it'll work with the aftermarket CAI's but it looks kinda big...does it fit with a strut bar on it? I know alot of us have strut bars.

We have run the intake manifold with an AEM CAI. Not sure on fitment with strut brace.

Why is the Dyno show in terms of wheel speed (mph) and not engine speed (rpm)? What gear was the car in? Auto or manual?

Car was a 6-speed-graph can be displayed with any axis-speed, time or rpm, but the relative difference in power remains the same. Test was in 3rd gear.

I've discussed the group buy with them and they said that if we can organize ten people to buy they will discount the price 50 bucks down to 649 from 699. Which brings the question how many serious buyers would we have?

dude, all we gotta do is get 10 people that are serious enough to buy it to put it in to production and maybe get 50 bucks knocked off. going through warranty crap is b.s. anyway. youll get lucky if they do the werk and do it right or keep bringin it back for more repairs afterwards.

I would be in if someone can confirm if it will fit under a strut bar. Especially the DC sports one. If anyone can confirm yes, I'm in.

So I'm guessing that once again there will be a massive amount of time before we hear anything else from dynatek?

The same thing that happened last time. I was all for it the first time they said something about it but then they dissappeared. And I was skeptical this time but I was still willing to forgive and forget. But now this is ridiculous. I mean seriously this is the second time that they have done this. They get everyone all hyped up and then they drop off the face of the earth.
