Why would it?

Either way, I'm going to go somewhere else. Don't want the hassle. If it happens again at the next shop then I know it's our cars, but the likelihood of that is..... well.... very slim.

Awesome, I'm a DJ as well and I gave him mad props when I was there. Trance is #1.

Powerfab said it was ECU noise + bad shielding on all Nissans causing interference, etc etc. I am not sure. Attached are my run files. The first 4 runs were baseline, no mods. The last 3 are after FI CBE and Stillen G3's.

Here is a pic of what I think are the best 2 runs before and after the mods. It stopped recording after 6.5k so I don't know what I'm really putting down.

Conditions sucked too:
88 deg 51% humidity for baseline
93deg 42% humidity for "modded" run

I just compared our dynos. Your best baseline and my best. I gained 13whp with my exhaust and HPS intake over your baseline. So its somewhat safe to say those mods combined net 13whp.
