^^ Nice work. I would have done the same thing since the pipes were already out.
WOW Those Are Small!

This shows just how much larger the 2012 pipes are:


Installed them yesterday and what a pain in the ass. Not a very technical job but hard to get to shit aplenty. Some bark removal was inevitable.

Got a dyno baseline before and scheduled for Thursday to dyno again.
One thing for sure, your intake noise/bov's noise will be louder with the addition of the 2012 pipes. Tried my GFB Bov's on 100% recirc and also mostly full vent and there is some new engine music to listen to. It seems to be playing a new tune!!

I finally installed the pipes after a basline dyno session at Cobb Surgeline Tuning and here are the results.
My car has made more power/tq than the baseline runs I performed last week but the weather is much warmer and humid lately, and temperature and humidity will effect results.
The main thing to look at are the differences between a 2009 inlet pipe power/tq level and the final tuned 2012 pipe set-up........quite a difference.
Also, when running aftermarket intakes the intake sound will change with the install of the 2012 pipes. It sounds really good but different.

Those results with the 3" intakes too?
#111 Posted 13 August 2011 - 12:21 PM
Nice power differential! And predictably, the turbos to seem to spool a bit more quickly, as evidenced by the torque curve being shifted to the left a bit.
How long did it take to remove the old ones and install the new ones?
Oh, and nice work on the porting. Looks smooth!

Amazing results! 17whp just by bolting on. That's one of the most effective bolt-ons you can buy, and good value too.
29whp tuned. Is that tune very similar to what was on the car before the inlets were put on?
Isn't 15.8 a touch lean on the AFR though, or is that not an accurate figure?

Just a bit of work to get to them in the car.
As far as 15.8 - it gets down to reading the dyno chart. 15.8 is "maximum" , probably when lifting throttle, not under load. I think looking at it under load, it was in the 11-12 range, fine and safe. Avg was 12.3 which includes the highs and lows.

any Nissan dealer parts department can sell you.
Parts number
14460-KB50A
14460-KB50B
total should be around $500. you are not going to find any cheaper unless they have wholesale account with that dealer and you may save a few pack of cigarettes.
#120 Posted 24 August 2011 - 08:25 PM
Same for me> If any vendors have them avaliable PM please.
