I'm heading to Houston now to drop the car off and let JTran retune and explore the new software. Uprev did testing on various VVEL ecu's including the one in my z. I was told there are two maps to adjust the cam timing, cam angle and cam lobe I think. Expecting decent gains w/ my current FI set up, maybe 35-40 whp depending on boost levels, etc.... The VVEL stock settings are way to advanced for FI, so retarding them will be the way to go. Crossing my fingers.
Talked to Jared at Uprev about cam phasing and timing; he said its still in the development and another 2-3 months.
Maybe this is something for pro tuners only; in for the new gains.
