This is pretty cool. Any updates?

Nope, not yet. The shop is pretty busy, we'll know something soon. Stay tuned.

Nothing yet.. I need to find a person in the area with an unmodded Z to have them run a dyno on it.. for a baseline. I REALLY dont want to pull of all my parts just to reinstall them.

rAiN · 12-07-2012, 02:21 PM

i have non modded z

Honestly, you should probably just let someone else (who's already stock) take your spot with this project. Pretty much useless to use someone else's baseline dyno and then your dyno with other mods. It would prove nothing.

eastwest2300 · 12-07-2012, 03:45 PM

yeah, man, Im starting to think you're right.

Jordo! · 12-07-2012, 05:23 PM

Anyone up for this? Lets get this going again!

eastwest2300 · 12-07-2012, 05:38 PM

No worries, brother -- I appreciate your time on this

Im surprised, they didnt try to get ahold of me, I went by there a couple times, and could never get ahold of Muhammad. I dont know. Im not sure what was up.

I think once we find a new test car I'll follow up a bit more.

BTW, someone on here had custom bellmouths mounted to his gen 3's (not sure if spherical or elliptical) and he claimed something like another 8 whp over what the gen 3's made on their own -- that's very promising in terms of what to expect for this design.

I'll see if I can find it -- the guy recently sold off the parts -- saw mention of it in a FS thread.
