on the evo or the z?
the evo had an artisan carbon/ti exhaust that had a burnt tip
the z has the hks hi-power which comes with burnt tips as well
i love the exhaust and i think it sounds perfect and has a great tone to it. im going to be getting a tune here in a few weeks so we'll see about performance then but my butt dyno likes it!!!

sebastian and specialty z tuned my 370z this morning. first off i want to thank sebastian for being very helpful. my fiance and i had a great experience at specialty z today and would recommend them to anyone who is needing work done to there z or that needs a tune in the socal area. we woke up at 5 this morning to head up to the shop. we left the house at 5:45 and got to the shop at around 9:30. sebastian greeted us and before you know it the car was on the dyno and ready to go. after each run sebastian pulled me over and explained to me what exactly is going on with the car and air/fuel ratios. everything was done in about an hour and a half. i was sad for the tuning to end cuz after, my fiance and i went shopping in LA for her...haha. specialty z had great prices, great customer service and imo did a great job on the car

now the fun facts. sebastian showed me my first base run but i forgot the exact numbers, sorry, i have the second run and the last run. second run she made 296hp and 252tq. last run she made 305hp and 262tq. now i just pulled my evo dyno sheet and when tuned, the evo made 292hp and 263tq. now, the evo was very quick and seemed like it had more hp than what it dynoed. i only say this cuz the evo was beating a lot of cars including a gtr and zo6 (and equivalent) on the 1/8th mile and the z feels faster than the evo. maybe its just driver??? im just saying i think both dynoes read low but i could be mistaken. ( btw specialty z uses a dyno jet).

anyways here is the sheet and some pix and a unedited, quick clip ( not the best but gives you an idea)

That's awesome man! Thanks for sharing How do you like the car after the tune? Do you feel a little more low end?

BTW, can't watch the video. It's set to private .

This shot is MONEY! Those rims and tips look
