I got E tuned today. By soho ! My car feels awesome ! And launch control is something else
Soho does a great job!
It would be cool to see intake tubes that were dimpled internally around the bends to speed up the air flow.
This car has come so far!! I had the mishimoto hoses and returned them
I appreciate you sticking around through the transformation!
Since AMS CAI is sold out and on backorder I'm thinking of going this route for my red sport, at least for the time being until a tune or other mods. Thanks for the vid man!
Thanks for watching!
Although I would love to believe that this is better than a cold air Intake, I saw a video today where a guy put some brand of intake on a Z and got 40 hp on a dyno just from installing it. Surely there’s something more to that. It’s probably not worth how much the intake cost though too.
Not possible to get 40hp from an intake. They likely installed the intake and then tuned the car. The tune unlocked the power. The intake helps minimally
@@SpeedCultureStudios that is actually true the intakes are minimal.
@@Schmegil I know it’s true lol. That’s why I said it
@@SpeedCultureStudios lose the attitude… I’m joking 🤣
@@erickabundis7952 Not sure what attitude you're talking about or what joke you're referring to.
What are other great options for intake if I wanna spend a lil more 300+
If you want more power and torque, get the Z1 Race cold air intake. I gained 10 whp. Before and after on a dyno.
Do you need a tune?
I thought cai on 3.7 q50 you lose power. Like speed culture said
@SpeedCultureStudios is this true?
The beginning got me scared especially since I just mine in the mail 😩😩
It's a good purchase!
It's time to update your favorite things link. Many items are not available and many more are not available for Canada
I’ll go through them. They were all active items just a couple days ago. I’m sorry about the Canada thing. I’ll see if I can get some Canada-specific links for my friends up north!
You're giving me a heart attack, I just ordered some today 😂
Lol. You’ll be happy!
how did you install the intake tubes with the stock side pcv "box things" I watched the video on the install but you used the radiator hose and deleted the boxes. Im thinking of buying the z1 side pcv hoses in the near future, but I want to install the tubes that I already have. Thanks for always answering questions when you can
You can make it work with hose-just have to get creative. But I eventually got the pcv hoses from z1 and completely eliminated the boxes
i know you took the engine cover off and it looks.awesome I cant find that video
I don’t think I have a video actually taking it off.
Do you think over a few runs these would help with heat sink? I can see why they wouldn't add power but would they maybe help maintaining power as heat builds up in the engine bay?
Silicone is a pretty good insulator so yes I would say they will help with reducing heat soak
They are a pain to install, little cutting but doable and do look great! Installed last year 2014 Q50s
Not too bad compared to some things-like test pipes lol!
Speed Culture Studios will it b a pain in the ass on a 08 G37s? I just ordered, will I Nd to do any mortifications? I got Z-1 aswell
I did same install on my '13 G37 previous to owning my Q50, It was slightly easier. Not sure how an '08 compares to a '13 though???
threefive ok cool. Did u need to modify or do any cutting to the tubes?
threefive should be about the same as your 13 G37
Hey speed culture love your video questions did you reuse the factory box tube that connects on the side of the Z1 tube ( talking about passenger side)
Hey! I’ve been checking out your vids and new to the channel. Great stuff! I really enjoy the simplicity of getting things done to make your car unique in your own way. Less is more!. Anyways I just recently purchased ISR intake tubes from CZP With the k&n filters. and not the Z1 like yours. I’m yet to install them. Do you have any personal input on them? Does the two brands make a difference? Lmk! Thanks and keep up the good work with Q50.
Some guy selling stillen cold air intakes for my 3.0t for $250 pretty much half price do you think they’re worth it haven’t seen any reviews on them 🤔
I mean if they fit your car and they are half the listed price, that’s not a bad deal.
Speed Culture Studios thanks probably picking them up this weekend he said $200 lol thanks to corona virus 🥴😌😂
Joel V it’s a bad situation we are in right now but it’s definitely a good time to find deals!
@@Ocphoneplug those stillen intakes are not good for the 3.0t. Its been proven to cause jerkiness and causes the car to ride like shit. The reason is due to the MAF sensor. 3 options are ams, burger tuning or run burger turbo inlets with upgraded drop in filters.
Why would these make power? This is a aesthetic upgrade.
I’m not sure who your question is directed to, but no I don’t think anyone is claiming that the z1 tubes make power. They are post MAF tubes so there is no way they could make power.
Hey man I recently pulled the trigger and purchased afe drop in and the z1 silicone intakes. I watched your vid on installing them about 5 years ago and In it you deleted the passenger side valve cover “suppressor” I guess. Don’t know the exact term but you did that with 5/8 heater hose. In this vid you have them back on. Did you take out the metal flange as well like you did on the passenger side?
Driver side*
I changed it up a couple of times. I did not like the heater hose so used the metal coupler and got the air boxes to work z I eventually eliminated the boxes completely with the z1 tubes
I'm going to do it and go with z1 intakes lol. Oh and solved the issue with the jerking when climbing rpms 👍🏽 ngk coil packs and sparkplugs 🤙🏽
There ya go! Nice
Dude that Tomei sounds sick bro! 🔥😂
Thank you!! 😂
Happy with my z1 tubes and the video you provided. ? Thou, I recently put some new MAF sensors in. Due to a little jerky feeling trying to climb up in rpm's. Thought that would solve the problem but unfortunately it didn't. Have any ideas 💡 what might be the problem.
May be a throttle body issue-need a throttle relearn/calibration. I can remember what other mods you have or if you’re tuned. Could be a number of things.
The only mods is a full custom exaust with HFC from Z1 motorsports, Z1 intake tubes with k&n drop in filters. I do make sure that there's no excess oil on them and make sure there completely dry lol. I did clean the throttle body's a year ago but didn't get this issue until a couple of weeks ago. It is a old vehicle and might have to do some re learning on the throttle bodys.
Ihùuba✊🏾g37s or the combination of exhaust hfc and filters with no tune causes some misses.
Called Z1 motorsports and they say they can do a mail in uprev flash on my ecu and do some tweaks to get a little bit more power. Hopefully that can take care of the problem. I live in kansas so getting a tune here is impossible.
Ihùuba✊🏾g37s whaaat, I live in Missouri. Omg we can be friends 😂
Is there any difference between z1 post maf tubes and mishimoto? They're both made of silicone and both seem to need to be cut down a lil bit most the time
I can’t see any difference.
How would you compare z1 silicone intakes to mishimoto ?
Same
Actually no, I already got them and am looking fir instal advice.
Actually no, what?
So the fan control module ended up fixing the fans constantly running?
So far it seems to have worked.
Can you do a video on mods to turn a basemodel G37 into a sport? As for mine I have no paddles and no plugs for them, also no cruise control and I am tuned with uprev but can not change maps as it's impossible to find cruise control ones here in New Zealand, is there a way to diy switch in to change maps?
the mobile app
Do they give that louder sucking noise compared to stock? Thanks
The tubes don’t. Upgraded filters give a bit more suction noise
Hi is the another uption from afe dry air filter 31-10272 MA for.my 2014 infinti. Q50
Not really. Only K&N but they are oiled
I thought you said cai aren’t worth it bc you lose power? That’s it’s better to put drop ins instead
Intake tubes are not cold air intakes. They are post MAF tubes. I never said you lose power-I said you don’t gain enough power to justify $500 for intakes. Some people have lost power though yes.
@@SpeedCultureStudios gotcha. What would make someone lose power with a cai? And how much would you gain with a cai, roughly? I mainly wanted it for the sound. But I after I saw your video with drop ins and intake tube sucking air I have second thoughts. And would I have to tune and dino after drop ins and intake tubes? Sorry just got a q50s and still learning lol. Thanks!
I fuckin love my afe filters
Agreed.
was wondering if you could help me out with starting out for modifications for the Q. i’ve only done a muffler delete and wheels and tires so far. want to do some power mods. just not sure where to start.
CB Slatt test pipes and a tune
@@sleeper.simulant7327 agreed. Watched a video of a guy installing headers and test pipes and I think high flow cats and he made 50 hp 22 whp after tune
Hey so if you look at your car standing in front of it , in the first video you bought a hose to replace the little black resonator thing which you took out from the left intake kept it on the right. In this video you put it back how did you manage to do that?
I should have filmed it! I put the metal coupler that came with the intake tube back into the tube. I used a very small piece of the vacuum hose to make a gasket and trimmed the lip of the baffle/resonator which allowed me to slide the securely onto the fitting from the intake tube.
Speed Culture Studios do you mind filming it like maybe 5-8 min update video whenever you have time? Im like a visually learner and the video might make it easy for me. lol
Zaib Ashrafi that might not be a bad idea. I may just include it in part of an upcoming video.
Speed Culture Studios thanks man that would be great ill be on the look out for that next vid!!!! THANK YOU!
What’d you do different with the 22” hose you had originally installed on the passenger side?
Used the z1 pcv hoses
Dope intro song
So on the left side of the tube you just used the hose on your first video and left out the resonator box?
Yeah but both resonators have been eliminated now and I have z1 hoses
@@SpeedCultureStudios I actually just ordered that too in 2’. I remember you saying in the first video you only needed 21”. Did you have to cut again?
@@SpeedCultureStudios even the right side tube you replaced with z1 hose?
@@inyczgq yes
@@SpeedCultureStudios how many inch tubing was needed for the right side?
Do 2016+ air Filter fit on 2014-2105 ? I dont find a dry airfilter for 2015
No I don’t think so. Go to afepower.com and search Q50. You’ll see them just below the takeda intakes.
Not available in Canada then
What is that front shield that covers the coolant expansion tank?
It’s just the factory cowl/shield
@@SpeedCultureStudios seems considerably longer than mine. Maybe its a Q50 vs G37 difference?
Dougie LaForce yes the front clip of the g is slightly different than the q
Keep it up 👍
Will do! Thanks!
I’m new to the channel what year is your Q50?
2015. I have over 100 vids so anything you might want to know is likely out there! Thanks for following along!
Do you have any opinion on Sprint Booster, Thanks... stay safe
Thank you! And no I don’t honestly. I’m not really familiar.
@@SpeedCultureStudios It connects to the accelerator pedal Wire harness And it's supposed to eliminate throttle lag,
slick smith yeah I’ve heard of it, I’m just not aware of results. I’ve heard one person say they had it but nothing about whether or not it works.
I ordered one from my G37, I will update you after the installation...Thanks
slick smith sounds good!
Can I get the part number to the afe air filter? Thanks in advance.
Just go to afepower.com and search Q50 in air intakes. You’ll see the filters.
@@SpeedCultureStudios I did that. It says that the part is for years 16-19. My year is a 2015.
david jimenez dude I literally just did it. They pop up right away. Just typed Q50. Nothing even related to 16 came up.
Here: afepower.com/afe-power-31-10273-ma-magnum-flow-pro-dry-s-air-filters
There aren’t that many intake related parts on that website. You just have to look around for a minute or use the search.
@@SpeedCultureStudios That is crazy. I did that. Thank you for taking the time to send me the link. I really appreciate your channel.
Love the build
Did you ever explain why you put the Air Intake Resonator back on? (Black plastic box)
I put it back on to keep it as factory as possible, but eventually eliminated them all together.
@@SpeedCultureStudios Sounds good. I think I watched the videos out of order. I knew you took it out but then saw a video with it on.
@@adamsears5320 Yeah they are completely out now.
Hello, is this CARB legal?
I have no idea-probably not lol. It’s fine in every other state though I’m pretty sure
Does this still work for AWD ?
Im really interested in these dude but idk if it's same for my AWD 2.0t
I believe the 2.0 is different.
Do these set off the check engine light?
No. They are after the MAF sensor
