Great news! Car is tuned.

Bad news. Stock Nismo exhaust is holding the car back. The Nismo S tune exhaust is different on the 350, its a single 3" with a good amount of baffling in the muffler.

Big Thanks to Bobby and VSR for working into the night getting the car together. Its been a great journey so far and its far from over.

There are a few more loose ends to pick up before the car can be shipped back. Regardless, I am siked to get the car back.

Of course, rough result:

6 psi = 380 whp
8 psi = 420 whp
13 psi = 500 whp

Don't have torque figures, but im sure its way more than the 260 lb-ft I had before. Again, the stock exhaust seems to be holding a good bit of that power back. Glad Bobby and VSR built that block. Once I put my big boy pants on, maybe I'll "invest" in a more free flowing exhaust and really unleash the single turbo's potential.

Next steps include a shake down to get all of the bugs out, data log to refine any potential rough spots, throw some larger tires on the car, and just enjoy my first car out of college as it should have came out of the factory

I'll post up dyno's when I get them.

A little honeymoon reflection (still early and i'll update as I go forward):
IMO, the true value in a performance shop is how they handle "incidents" as incidents will inevitably arise. Every shop has their oopies, more importantly though, Bobby has made right their oopies (based on the threads i've read on 370z). I hope my story is free of incidents, but knowing that Bobby will come through regardless really settles the mind.
