I was hoping we could get an OEM parts diagram, specs and maybe some hands on experience/measurements of the Kicks boltons.

It definitely gets the extra power from just boltons and a very specific tune with the CVT only.
Especially if the compression ratio is actually the same.

Makes me wish even more that Nissan had a good ECU tuning platform..

I'd put money on a 2" full exhaust, the Kicks intake mani and throttle body, CAI and a tune for premium fuel on the 5mt making 135hp at the crank.
