I've been searching high and low to see if anyone has tuned a stock Z and shown a dyno but nothing. Any idea if k&n drop ins and a catback would have decent gains post tune? I'm thinking about going to mkc for that...

to be honest, i'm not sure if i would dyno tunes for just a CBE and intake. i think the ecu can correct for those small AFR tweaks. no, if u go to HFC or test pipes, then i would be looking to tune

Well, unless they have changed their habits. You will be waiting. They stole $400 from me and refused to give it back. I paid for a tune that never happened because they drug their feet for 6 months getting UPrev'd certified. I chalked it up as a lesson learned on paying for something ahead of time.

On a side note, you can get a decent can tune for what you are doing. It will not be maxed out but it will give you a nice little boost in HP and you can load it yourself and save about $500. Speaking of which I have the CD and tuner cable somewhere in my house....I think it will work?

Not looking to do HFC or test pipes currently as I'm not sure where the car is going in the next few years, and I do have a nice lifetime warranty i'm trying to hang on to for as long as possible (but knowing the mod bug, it won't be long i guess).

Also just trying to keep it relatively stock for autox...nothing against the rules in tuning the ecu as long as boost isn't touched...i think...but i'm not boosted so that doesn't make a difference

I have a tactrix cable from my subaru tuning. is that similar to the one you have? mine is just the usb to OBD II cable that has it's own micro-processor to translate and send to the laptop. Is this similar to what you have?

PM me, I'd be interested to give it a shot at least!

It should be. Same exact concept and it's from Uprev. When I had my first 370z boosted I spent many hours downloading tunes & loading tunes ( STS shyt kit). I will look to see if I can find the cable. Unfortunately I am busy this weekend trying to find a house for me and my pooch. I will let you know if I find it.

PS: It will burn your VIN on it when used but was told it should be back to factory right now. Unsure if that is how it works.

Of course once I have my car all pretty on coilovers, spacers and new shoes it begins to get cold. Hopefully I can drive it around for a little while more. I should have a picture up soon. I hope anyways...

Today will be the last, if I can get home in time, it will be out until I move. Then it'll sit in that garage as well.

No such thing as hibernation for mine. Long as no rain and snow or salt on the ground the car is always out.

How much did that cost? Sport or non sport?
