Helb. It is a 2WD
This Morning I cutted the plastic cover to fit the new intake and it was a very quick fix with a jigsaw cutter I did it in high RPM and with a metalic blade and it cutted clean.. I didn even had to sand it down. I followed the curve of the main area.
I clean it because I left it very dirty and as always as soon as I finished cleaning it it started to rain... so today I will go out in my wife Pathfinder.... Murano testing due for tomorow conmute to work.
Here you will find more pictures in my gallery.

| It appears you put the Phenolic Spacers on as well from NissanWorks correct? I bet you are feeling a big boost in power. |

Well people here is my report after spending $1,000.00 on my Murano Intake System:
I did both type of driving yesterday and today, The regular driving and the racing type.
On the regular driving (No hesitation) it handles like the regular Murano except for the intake sound that you can hear the whirling of the ir going to the engine (Nice Sound). I will be watching for the fuel consuption to see if it saves or consumes more fuel. On Friday I have a long trip and I will be able to measure the fuel consuption.
On the Racing area. I did a couple of light to light running and in the startup I did not feel any gain after the CAI was installed but after 25-30 miles there is a sudden pickup that really impressed me and I got to a 100 much faster than before.
So my final veredict is the performace upgrade was very good. :-)
But as Helb says, You need a deep pocket for this kind of enhancements. I will be paying it for the next couple of months... OUCH!!! but Iam very happy with it.
I'll keep in touch |
