Topgunz - air to air upgrade

I'm on the 9lb Pulley. ...Stillen asked me to run this as I was only hitting 7.0-7.5 psi on their stock pulley....they were thinking that it was due to either

I'm on the 9lb Pulley. ...Stillen asked me to run this as I was only hitting 7.0-7.5 psi on their stock pulley....they were thinking that it was due to either my TP'S ( their theory if back pressure with the stock cats) or my climate/location.....With the 9lb pulley I'm hitting a max of 8.3psi @7300rpm. I know that when StillenZ34 started his tuning session he was running lean due to the increase of air from the A2A set up but he has an upgraded fuel system. ...I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Stillen supplied pump and Injectors that originally came with the kit will be suffice for now...especially considering my limitations of fuel grades here.

3. Informed the shop that the FMIC brackets are upside-down.
4. Shop flipped ONLY the passenger side bracket - Not sure if they really did anything (Doesn't really matter at this point because the Y-pipe was altered).
5. One pipe now won't align with the throttle body.
6. Welded an extension on that pipe in order to fit.

My shop works on a LOT of 370z's and they told me that the G37 has less room in the front. Not sure if this is true, but we won't really know until the next guy tries. I went to the shop and took a look at the front and I really don't see a crazy difference, then again I'm no expert. I honestly feel like it will fit with either much less fabrication or without any at all.

I intend on going E85 next month. I highly suggest it as it makes a world of difference in terms of power.
Where are you getting e85 from in nyc ?

The one in Spring Valley is pretty good - all the street racers go there.

I'll mostly be using 93 honestly. I'm out in Jersey and Long Island a lot, so there's plenty E85 there.

Update: I'm currently running logs for Sebastian, so he can road tune me today. I didn't really want to, but I've driven the car like a baby for 50 miles or so on the base tune he gave me. Nowhere near being able to go WOT, but I'm getting anxious.

Well here it is. Its the best one my wife could take. The roads we were on weren't the best.

You can see at 10psi the intake temps are 98degrees. About 20* increase from idle.
