Jim Wolf POP Charger (COLD AIR INTAKE) - Click HERE for Original Thread
Schneikeys
I recently installed the Jim Wolf Pop Charger. I could feel the differance it made. Pics to come of the install. took only 20 minutes to install the whole thing!!! Can hear a differance too.
Dookie
Could you feel the diff throughout the RPM band or only at higher RPMs?

Just want make sure when you bring your car in for any warranty issue, (example CVT), take that thing out before hand. Stuid dealer can blamed the it on your intake eventhough it is not related. :cool:

Awwwww I wish I knew the JWT cone fit! Did you get the one meant to fit an Altima? I suspected that they would share the same MAF sensor, therefore the velocity stack should fit, right? Would you please post a picture, including one of the mounting bracket?
EdMPT
I found this one....

I'd be curious to see it actually in the Murano. Looks kind of tight in the engine bay to me, since I used to have a JWT cone in my Maxima and it was a big cone! That picture on the website is the old JWT cone image thats been around for years.

Steven, I can get a Jim Wolf pop charger for you Murano which is a cone type filter that bolts up to your mass air flow meter and replaces you stock air box. This set up usually adds about 4 hp. The set up goes for $127 plus shipping and if you would like to order or want more
info please call me @ 888-449-5131. Thanks Shea Merritt nismoparts.com
Chris03HD
Wonder why they dont include a heat shield for it as well.. :confused:

Do you have the part number. The JWT website does not show a specific application for the Murano. Its the same filter across the line, the only difference is that aluminum velocity stack they include with it that mounts to the MAF.
Schneikeys
Part number is verified by JWT:

PMAX4-1XCO1

Hope this helps all of you. It was a VERY easy install!!!!!
Tyler_Canada
Sweet. I emailed them a while back about this, and got no reply. I'll be doing this mod asap. Anyone in Ontario want a K&N panel filter, used but never cleaned?
dmako
That came to mind also.

I went to the site yesterday and the pics showed a heat shield.

The heat shield...
beemer-biker
I clicked on the link to their site, clicked on the MO and the pop charger options, and the results say there are no items for this. What am I doing wrong? A check of all MO parts reveals no pop charger for it.
Help me! :confused:
dmako
I havn't found the Murano part either, my pic is from the 350Z.

But there is some instruction in PDF on how to *build* a cold air box.

http://jimwolftechnology.com/wolfpd...BOX_EXAMPLE.PDF
Schneikeys
It is a valid part number, it is just not on there web site I called them to confirm it.. I got mine thru Nismo and Wish it had the Heat shield would have been nice. May be they can send one to me now? who knows.
dmako
What is the lnk for the nismo site?
Halo
I don't want to burst any bubbles here, but....

It adds 4 (probably crank) hp to a ~250hp engine and you can feel it? Hear it, I can believe. Has anyone actually done a pre-post dyno to see if there are any gains, changes in the the torque curve?
seaofdunes
is there any mod needed for the 02 sensor or is it done before it? How do you properly clean the filter?

By O2 sensor I assume you mean Mass Airflow Sensor?
There are no mods to sensors of any kind. The MAF bolts up to the new velocity stack (metal ring), I believe.

To clean the filter, you basically wash it and apply oil to it. There are instructions on the jimwolftechnology website.
Eric L.
No the MAF sensor, which measures intake air, is different from the O2 sensor, which measure exhaust gases.
Tyler_Canada
Right, but why would you have to do something to the O2 sensor(s) because of an intake mod?
GMTURBO43
Shouldn't be any reason to do anything with the O2.

Looking at this intake really has me confused. It isn't much more than a cone filter. The only other thing included in that kit is a metal braket. A K&N cone filter can be had for $60. The 'adapter' can be made from a piece of exhaust tubing - which can polish up real nice - not that you can see it anyway.

I think the same thing everytime i see a "new intake" on the market... most are just heat soaking metal tubes, bent to get around certian engine bay parts, topped off with an inexpensive cone filter... everyone and their mother makes a cone filter of some sort now.

BTW, i did once get sucked into spending $400 for a real full carbon fiber tube / fliter setup from Dinan, for my BMW.. :( LOL

Maybe ill just remove the MAF, take it to my machine shop buddy, and see what he would charge to crank out a bunch of adapters.... then all we would need is a filter. Of course, fabing up a heat shield would also be the way to go..
dmako
Thanks for your inquiry.

To order parts you will need to call us during our business hours and place the order. The Pop-charger part# is PMAX4-1XC01 which fits the 03+ Murano as well as the 04+ Maxima. The Pop-Charger for the Murano does not have a heat shield. This is not needed. Only the 350Z and G35 have a heat shield. The price of the Pop-Charger is normally $159.00 but I can get you on a special we did recently for $120.00 plus shipping. Give me a call to place your order.

i did mean MAF D'oh!

would this void my warranty?
GMTURBO43
I think the warranty claim is in the hands of your dealership. I've read some Dealer service guides for warranty work for GM - they are pretty decent about what they allow and what they don't. I don't see a 4 hp increase (if it is legit :) ) being the root cause of an engine failure. A 4hp difference between 2 engines could be manufacturing tolerances.

I have 2 thoughts.

1 - a dealership gets paid from Nissan for making warranty claims. They generally will NOT turn down work - at least this has been my experience speaking with people at GM - Nissan could be different.

2 - a dealership could come up with any BS excuse to not replace something under warranty as it doesn't pay as much money as a non-warranty claim.

I'd check with the dealership and get they're feedback on installing any aftermarket parts. The way it is worded - is any device that can be traced back to causing the failure. A 1,000 watt stereo will not cause a transmission failure - but could cause an alternator to fail. Tell them your intent and see what their thoughts are. Or see if you can get something from Nissan direct. Does NISMO offer a CAI kit for the Murano?

From Nissan website:

Can I modify my vehicle or add accessories not authorized by Nissan?

Your Nissan New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover repairs for damage or conditions which are determined to be due to the installation or use of non-Genuine Nissan Accessories available at the time you order or purchase your new Nissan, as well as after purchase from your Nissan dealer.




A 4 hp increase will not cause excessive wear to the drivetrain but how about :
1. Relocating the MAF caused it to fail because of excessive vibration on a non-factory intake.
2. Relocating the MAF caused it to send incorrect signals regarding intake temperatures/pressures causing the ECU to use the wrong timing map.
3. Non-factory intake allowed water to get into the engine causing failure.
4. Aftermarket cone filter does not meet NISSAN specs.

Remember, Nissan, not you, decides whether the damage or condition is 'due to' your aftermarket parts. You can take them to court if you don't agree with their assesment.

Here's an interesting article about the pop-charger put on an 2003 Altima (a short MO) *with* dyno results.

"After installation of the Jim Wolf Technology's POP charger. JWT's design is one of extreme quality and it showed on the dyno. The peak hp gain was 8 hp (208.8) and 3 lb-ft of torque (230.3). These gains stayed fairly consistent past 4,000 RPMs with max hp gain of 10 hp at 6000 RPMs and max torque gain of 10 at 5500 RPMs (blue lines on dyno chart).

All these gains and a legal C.A.R.B. (smog friendly) modification makes the Jim Wolf Technology POP-Charger a must upgrade for those interested in lightly modifying their car. "

All very valid points.

But sometimes you have to chance it. Relativity speaking, this is a very very small mod. Heck if you have engine issues put the old air box back in.

If all of this was totally true, there would be NO after mart industry.

Nissan Performance Mag is a great site. I read it every month. I even got a question answered this month. :)
hfelknor
Often the difference to the Buttometer with these intake mods is the throttle response.
I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned.
8 HP at201 is about as minimal as you can feel usually and has little orno impact on 1/4 miles times etc.
The throttle response OTOH, if improved, can add to the enjoyment of the car.
The other thing is that a motor is an air pump system.
If this was a completely stock Altima, that is one thing. If it had an aftermarket exhaust system, then it is another.
In other words, this mod, in concert w/ a well designed exhaust might be capable of even more...........


Intersting stuff.

dmako
So Schneikeys, how is the pop-charger after you have had it installed for a while?

Has your dealer seen it?
Schneikeys
Yes the dealer has seen it they said nothing to me about it. The mech's liked it. I still like it and the way it sounds.
jaak
It's interesting looking at these things.... I suspect the best performance increase comes on vehicles that have restrictive air boxes in an attempt to muffle intake noise. However, I don't think that airflow is a great problem on high performance designs these days, so I do question the real value of some of these mods. It reminds me of the golf industry where all these small improvements are supposed to get you another 100 ft, but they don't all accumulate.

I'd like to know the tolerance and repeatability of the various dynos used to measure gains, including the repeatability of the environment in which the vehicle is in, while the measurements are done. When you are pushing engine performance, you can have HP gains and losses as the day changes and the weather changes.

So 8 HP as an example on 245 is only slightly over 2% HP increase. Realistically, I doubt I'd be able to tell there was a difference, as I'm sure my Murano's HP varies more than that with weather changes, but I can't tell you that on Sunny hot days it performs significantly different than on cold damp days.

I do know that my brain would percieve a difference with a change in intake noise. I still have an addiction to the intake howl of early seventies Kawasaki 3 cylinder two-strokes, fitted with K&N's instead of the stock airbox system. Waahhh, Waaaahhhhh, Waaaaaaahhhhhh:D

Anyone here actually run a dyno and/or know the details on repeatability and impact of the environment when measuring HP through the drivetrain?
Tyler_Canada
I would imagine if they claim an 8HP improvement, that would be wheel HP, not crank HP. You can't exactly claim 8 crank HP when you can only measure wheel HP. So that would be more like a 4% increase. Probably noticeable on the butt dyno, to people who can feel the power difference the ambient temp makes.

Edit:
Something I believe they do do, however, is measure the gains on one vehicle, and then extrapolate to others based only on the difference in horsepower.
Tyler_Canada
Here are some thoughts about not using a heat shield in the Murano:

1. The battery is between the engine and the air filter, so it kind of acts like a heat shield.

2. I'm going to leave the original part on the Murano that is basically a scoop attached to the grill that redirects air towards the driver's side from the front center. This should get more outside air to the filter, while still allowing it to breath better because the resonator is gone. The filter will still get some extra air directly through the grill.
Halo
There are some fairly extensive discussions of CAI's on other forums... just do a Google search there's tons of stuff out there.

In some applications, I've seen dyno plots of CAI's netting as much as 16 peak whp. (Trying to find the link, it was an ITR I believe)Other issues that always come up are water getting into the filter depending on the positioning of the intake and real world gains with the hood closed.

All in all, a CAI is not going to turn a Murano into a quarter mile monster but if it makes the owner happy... why not? You can always take it off later.
dmako
5-8 HP is 5-8 HP, add a nice free flow exhaust another 5 HP?

Now we have at least 255 HP! Wouldn't want to go much beyond this anyway.

A little extra power, nice sound, more sporty.
dmako
So Tyler_Canada, are going to install one?

I really want to but get cold feet with the warranty issues.

But heck, this should solve my mouse problem with them making nest in the air box and chewing up the air fiilter. That would cause much more harm.

My thoughts exactly.

Yes, I will be installing one. When my dealer saw my K&N had caused a problem (the other dealer hadn't been able to close the airbox properly), I was told about the potential for problems with the MAF getting oily. I said "yeah, I'm aware of the _potential_ problems" and that was that.

I tried to order it yesterday, but my internet was too slow (for browsing... ouch!)
Tyler_Canada
Actually, here's a worry I have (and a question for anyone who has ever used a CAI): what about a lot of water getting on the filter, like at an automatic car wash, or following someone on the highway during a rain storm?
dmako
Try this: www.google.com (use groups, not web), enter: cold air intake water

A lot of info, from what I have read, no problem unless you drive into a lake.
Tyler_Canada
Yeah, it seems that unless you submerge the filter, it's ok. And that makes sense. It's easier to pull air through the filter than water, so if there is a place where there is no water covering the filter, the air will come through there.

I ordered mine this afternoon from www.avalonracing.net. I looked around for someone in the northeast, because WA is just too far away. That and they gave me a price of $109.
dmako
Did you call or order thru the web site? I searched their PDF and only found:

Eric L.
After washing the MO the other day, I opened the hood to reinstall the Colgan bra, and noticed that the top of the airbox was covered with water. In my 97 Maxima, I had a POP charger and water never got into the area during a carwash, but it seems the Murano's hood is not as well sealed and water does get in. This seems to a potential problem to those who have the POP charger on the Murano.

I would be curious to know from POP charger owners whether their cone gets wet after a car wash (one that you do yourself in your driveway, not a coin op, which has a more limited spray).
dmako
Any new news on the pop-charger like:

Long term likes/dislikes?

The car wash I use sprays really high pressure water all along the grill. I'll let people know what I find. It's not really a big deal if you get a bit of water in the engine, there are even water injection systems, which keep the engine cooler. The main problem is hydrolock, when the cylinder is full of water (which doesn't compress as much as air).

I wish mine would hurry up and get here. I'm still waiting on it.
dmako
A little waterwon't hurt anything.

If your old enough to remember muscle cars of the 60/70's they even had shaker air scoops that would pull in a lot of rain water.

Here's a "water/hood scoop" story...in my younger days, I drove an AMC S/Crambler that had a large(ugly but functional) hood scoop. One cold winter day, I washed the vehicle in an indoor car wash. A good amount of water acummulated in the hood scoop(as always). On leaving I "booted" it, opening the vacuum operated hood scoop, dumping water into the air cleaner and carb. The blast of ice cold air froze the water in the carb at nearly wide open throttle; the gas pedal wouldn't move...after riding the clutch for a few moments with engine rpm around 5,000, I turned off the ignition but it continued to run because of throttle position and pre ignition..finaly got it stopped in 4th gear with both feet pushing on the brake pedal...after a few minutes, engine heat melted the iced up carb and everything was fine....point: a little water in a running engine is not a problem...unless it freezes...

Isn't this one of the reasons for EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) setups?
Tyler_Canada
Well, my JWT Pop Charger arrived today. Unfortunately, I don't think I have access to the tools to install it until the weekend.

I was really surprised at how large the filter is. Must be close to 12" diameter at the widest point.
MightyMo
Tyler, no not the EGR, but coolant (which is of course hot from the engine) is run through the throttle bodies of all newer cars for exactly that reason. If you live in a climate that never freezes it can be a good thing to bypass that so you aren't heating up the intake air so darn much. :4:

Someone should design it so that the ambient temp decides whether the coolant is run through the throttle body.
EdMPT
I am sure it wouldn't take much, an inverted coolant thermostat or something like that...

I used to install my hoses back to normal with my RSX during the winter months. After it warmed up, I bypassed the TB again...

Good news!
Please keep us posted. I'd be interested in how easy to re-install stock air box if I had to go to the dealer.

Prices were lower than everywhere else that I checked. One part was still missing yesterday and I inquired about it through e-Mail.

I would guess it's probably about the same, maybe a little louder because the filter is more exposed to the outside of the engine bay.

What about Z tubes? Trying to figure out if it's a straight forward installation of a Z tube, mass-air, pop-charger.

Anyway, how about a good price + shipping for a Z tube?

I just wanted to let you guys know that the 350z Pop charger will also fit on the Murano. I recently sold my Z and installed the pop charger on my wife's Murano.

Oops I mis-read.

Thought you said the Z tube from your Z fit on the Murano w/pop-charger.
