Leaving your car on the Dyno is normally expensive since you tie up the dyno for the whole shop so $600 for the Tune and dyno time I think is a very fair price. I made 339whp which 99.9% of people on here say is wrong so lets say I made around 320whp which is what most people make with these mods. A stock 370 makes about 280whp. So thats an increase of lets say 35-50hp. Thats really good for a NA car at least I think. Your friend must own a turbo car.
Nah, $1500 = another 100whp with GM, N/A. No NEED for FI.

I guess the point is, the 370Z is not a drag racing monster. If you wanted brute acceleration, a base corvette with a cam and LT's would have been a much smarter buy. Even the new 5.0 mustang with a tire is pretty mean.
