Doing a final pull into Austin, will let you guys know how it goes at UpRev

LEGA-Z · 10-26-2012, 05:43 AM

Sorry to disappoint guys but no nitrous was tuned;(
It was my decision, after a couple points made by UpRev:

1. They felt the nozzles were a bit too close to the throttle body.
2. They strongly recommend a window switch.
3. They recommend running one step colder plugs regardless of the shot.
4. They recommend a regulator on the bottle along with a bottle warmer to keep constant pressure.

I asked if they could go ahead and tune the nitrous, and that I would later fix the issues. But they said it would have to be re-tuned if any changes were made. So I decided to put off the nitrous tune until i get headers, an oil cooler, and resolve the nitrous. Then I'll go back up for a second tune.

None the less here is the video of my Z's performance

It's a dynojet ... I hear they give lower numbers though?

If I'm correct... The mustang Dyno is called the heartbreaker due to it reading lower horsepower than the dynojet. Either way those are some sweet numbers! I wonder how much more HP it will read with the NOS!?!? You should be shredding up the track the next time you go. If the weather stays the same I'm thinking of going next Wed.

adolescent love. You saw the car, blew your load and fell in love. Totally overlooking that one nagging flaw cause she just put out how you wanted to. It's ok, you're young, it happens. lol.

atx370z · 10-29-2012, 08:27 PM

Thinking of selling my Z... Think 30k is a fair price considering mods (Which all serve a purpose with the exception of the front lip), 25k miles and in better than new condition inside and out?

Seems like the "racing scene" in the valley is pretty big.. I think if I put my car out there for sale it would get a ton of interest.

opinions welcome

So in December i will be parting out the couple of things i have on my car:
- Stance GR coils
- Invidia Gemini Exhaust
- Z1 tubes
- Forged Performance Shift Knob

I'll take dibs also on gr coils if no one comes thru...

So for autos would you say Superchargers or twin turbos? I have heard both.... Just that with twins you gotta be careful at the higher gears cause they can't take the torque as good at the higher rpms. Any views on this guys?
