Funky tidbit of useless info, I actually had Shiv from Vishnu racing tune my wrx back ~5 years ago. We were the first group (10 cars) to be tuned by him in the east coast. One of the cooler experience's I've had working on cars.
So is the 11whp an average or is that peak ?

Well no, theres a HUGE difference between turbo vs NA tunes. Turbo tunes yield tons and tons and tons more power than do N/A ones. That having been said, I did see a 350Z with bolt-ons gain over 20WHP the other day with a custom tune. This tune from technosquare is obviously mild and applicable to everyone...therefore it has to be super super safe to account for the folks who live in 115 Degree summers. A dyno tune should be able to yield a good bit more than 11whp on the 370Z.
Do not take that personally KillerBee, Im not talking about your car, I am talking about their shelf tune. 11whp isn't bad for something that needs to be extremely safe. One thing that is very cool, is that we once again see the 370 making 300whp on simple bolt ons. So we know after 4 people that have gotten the same results, that this car in fact makes stupid amounts of power with simple mods. |

Agreed RCZ. I drove an Evo IX with mods and a tune and the tune itself made a huge difference. Even so, that car was only making 281 awhp (under load on a Dyno Dynamics) so I am quite pleased with these results on the Z.

Yup. except the evo had to put the power down through a awd tranny. It was still making more than you
Awesome car. So you made 300 with the stillen cbe, hfc and jwt intakes intake huh? Good to know. That means the Stillen HFC's are making awesome power... |

How much is the tune?
Can we see slightly better results with using the G3 long tubes vs the jim wolf ones? Which 02 sensor reads the a/f ratio and which one controls the CEL light, what I'm trying to get to is if they cna turn the one that reads the CEL light off so that the light doesn't come on for people with test pipes. |

It was a beautiful thing while it lasted! The JWT's came off before this number was achieved. So basically just the tune, HFC and CBE. Yeah.. I'd say those high flows really uncork some serious power. Last edited by KillerBee370; 04-23-2009 at 12:27 AM. |

Nice results, Mike! How come the post-tune dyno doesn't show AFR? I want to know how much they leaned it to achieve that 11 hp gain. Also, does anyone know how SuperFlow compares against Dyno Dynamics?
