Kinetix Racing took what they knew best and addressed this problem by engineering their manifold using a straight shot design, eliminating the twists, turns, and obstructions freeing up the airflow. Unique to the SSV manifold is the equal length runners with built-in velocity stacks, incorporated for improved performance, maximum plenum efficiency and improved airflow. This increase in overall plenum volume enables the SSV to deliver exceptional horsepower gains throughout the entire powerband.
What's the best part about the Kinetix SSV manifold? "Knowing it's a simple do- it-yourself project that takes less a 2 hours and will work with any aftermarket intake," says Robert Jamison, owner of Kinetix and the man credited with designing the SSV manifold. Each manifold is supplied with all necessary hardware and instructions and features an additional port for a boost gauge, or other various applications.
 Stainless steel was used because...  Stainless steel was used because of its great thermal properties, conducting less heat than aluminum and reducing heat soak. Another bonus to the Kinetix SSV is its weight saving benefits. The overall manifold saves 10 lbs. of weight over stock! |  Featuring Precision TIG welding...  Featuring Precision TIG welding throughout each section, the SSV uses a CNC cut 3/8-inch main flange; and mandrel bent runners. |  A breakdown of the manifold...  A breakdown of the manifold reveals velocity stack inlets to each individual runner for even better performance. Notice the staggered setup that was designed to maintain equal length among the runners. |

Dyno graphs show exceptional horsepower gains in the midrange over factory baseline numbers. Notice the gains in the midrange from 3000-5000 rpm. This was accomplished on a completely stock 350Z, with only swapping out the manifold. |  Kinetix states that depending...  Kinetix states that depending on your forced induction setup, a gain of anywhere from 20-60 hp can be seen. This, of course, requires you to properly tune your car when installing the SSV manifold. This dyno represents a before and after test and tune on a supercharged 350Z. |
