![]() That startup and idle tho. Likely the most exciting video here. Testing new mic, gotta say it is such a sweet sweet sound. You can smell the e85 burning from this angle! ![]() |

Oh and this is a cold start, 60 degrees. The car starts like this every....single....time. This kit is a masterpiece indeed.
Yes I clean under the car regularly, enjoy! |

true the e85 concentrations do change from station to station, I have nothing against it it makes great power but a lot of station owners aren't very carefull with it. It absorbs water so the longer it sits in the storage tank at the station the better chance it will a weaker batch if the tank is old. Then there are issues with the actual percentage and octane of the gasoline in the fuel, if you tune with a batch that has less gas or more dissolved water than normal, or if you have to much gas in your tank when you add the e85 you can run into serious issues when you don't have an alcohol percentage sensor in the ecu.
Also right on squeeze, meth is cheap insurance when boosting a factory 11:1 block when a bad batch of fuel, on hot day, pushing the car a little harder than normal, maybe a bit of fuel starve and you started detonating. A lot of tunes are set up safe but **** happens, if the oem tune is set as safe as possible why did nissan bother putting knock detection on it in the first place?

its usually not something to really worry about, its just like running into a bad batch of gas, but it does happen. the mixing is more important, if you switch between the fuels make sure you do it the way it was when the car was tuned, if you have too much gas in your tank you will lower the octane of the e85 when you fill up, and if you have too much e85 in the tank you will lean out if you fill up on gas. this is why the alcohol percentage sensor is so important, most tunes are safe enough to handle the minor variations but you won't want to fill up when you have a quarter tank of the other fuel left in the car. and a minor variation could still cause you issues if you are a little off and you run in to other problems.

I spoke with Dustin at dynosty while my car was getting tuned for a lengthy time on this Haltech Platinum stand alone EMS and it is in fact a go. I believe Hal actually was sent out for some firsthand tuning training on it the week prior to 2K14

If they do he wasn't "at liberty" to discuss it with me as a consumer just yet lol but he has assured me they have figured a way to control the VVEL via a standalone EMS now. That was my first and foremost concern from the beginning

Update,
It has been a crazy past few months. A rat race to ship 6 TT kits the day before vacation, an amazing vacation that was so exhausting, I needed a vacation from my vacation and once I returned, we prepped 2 cars which are in transit to ZDayZ "which I will also be attending" next week, etc, etc, etc... All of this being said, I wanted to chime in and give an update of sorts. First and foremost I received a call from Rich @ RDZ Motorsports in Danbury, CT. today. They just completed the install and tune of one of our TT kits. He was carrying on and on about the low end spool and top end pull. From the numbers I got from him he said the car made 436 RWH @ 8.5-9psi............Solid numbers for a "heart breaker Mustang Dyno". I am not one to say what it would "potentially" do on a Dynojet, so I won't! Not a fan of speculation and guesstimating. Meanwhile, NixLimited has his car back in hand safe and sound back home. Sebastian @ SpecialtyZ did a great job with the install, especially considering what he had to work with coming from "that other shop." If I was a betting man, I would say that Nick will elaborate on all of it in his review once posted. I want to take this time to share his dyno chart. I showcased 3 runs on the chart. 1) 91 Octane "Street" or more conservative tune. 2) 91 Octane "Aggressive" tune. 3) 100/91 Octane mixture tune. ![]() This is the first car with our FAST-500 fuel system. Well...It performed flawlessly. The fuel pressure is increasing as the boost increases. 1:1 as it should be. This fuel system is an essential piece to ensuring the supply of consistent, stable fuel pressure in the equation. "Highly recommended" for all forced induction applications on the Nissan 370Z. We will be officially releasing it once I return from ZDayZ. The dyno chart is self explanatory. A lot of low end torque, solid mid range and a lot top end power. Taking the E85 cars out of the equation, this is the current flagship pump gas car for us. As the temperature has risen in California, unfortunately our 91 Octane fuel has not gotten any better! That said, with Nick's car we opted to be very conservative with the ignition timing. That considered, we still met our customers initial expectations and got close to 600. 9 psi: 454 / 430 (91) 10.5-10.9 psi: 492 / 456 (91) 13.7-14.2 psi: 578 / 528 (100/91) On a few 91 Octane runs we did see over 500 RWH however there was a hint of detonation and we backed it down. You will see that the 100 octane run is a 91 mixture as well. These runs were performed with 3 gallons of 91 in conjunction with 10 gallons of 100 octane. Unlike the original prototype car which we had "pure" 100 in along with much more aggressive A/F and timing, we will not give a customer his/her car back on the edge! We had that car in our possession for a long time and were prepared to fix it in the event that it broke under our watch. Chalk it up to R&D! In closing, I spoke to Nick this evening and he will "hopefully" be able to stretch her legs in the next few days and over the weekend to give us all his initial thoughts. Until then, if anyone has any questions at all, please feel free to ask. Thank you, Tony

The fueling system is a thing of beauty. Highly recommend it for any forced inducted car.
