I want to get a performance chip so I don't void the warranty on the stock one. If I switch them out will Nissan be able to detect that when I switch them back for servicing? Also does the 2012 370z have an OBD II connection?

Looks suspect. stage3? JDM? You see their other products? Electric super charger? I would stay away.

I say 'go for it'! Sounds exciting! Stage 3?!?! A chip giving 40hp/40TQ from a non-turbo'd engine?!?!

Pure magic!

lol Trust me. This is exactly the reason I am posting this on here. Just starting off on anything related to this kind of stuff.........Since it's not a good idea, what would you recommend. I want to get a retune but don't want to void the powertrain warranty on the current ECU. Any help would be appreciated.

I agree that product looks like BS, but not sure what you mean about the OBDII port. All vehicles since 1996 are required to have them by law.

Do you have any other mods? If not, and even if you did, depending on what they are you will more than likely not need a tune. Will it make the car a little bit nicer to drive? Yes. But if you are concerned about warranty and don't feel like fighting dealers over it, I would not do it.

As far as tuning, Uprev is pretty much the only option for us at the moment. It lets the tuner control settings on the stock ECU by flashing it. You cannot add "chips" to these cars.

What are your goals anyway? Do you just want more power? If so, there are plenty of bolt on options for that.
