Just UpRev tuned @ Z Car Garage

sloboi · 04-11-2012, 10:52 PM

Rob and his team were fantastic! My 10' 7AT fully loaded Roadster was running with some K&N short rams, Berk HFCs, and Akrapovic CB. I was planning to drive to San Francisco from Vancouver for a road trip, and chanced upon a thread mentioning the Z Car Garage before I left. I called up Rob, and setup an appointment for a light weight pulley install, and an UpRev tune.

Everything said and done, Rob and his team have found themselves a Canadian fan! Once I NEED (it'll happen eventually) to go FI, I'll be back!

Increase from baseline wasn't far, as it seems I have a pretty "smart" ECU, but man did the drivability and response feel different...

Check Rob and his team out if you're in the Bay area!

Gains? Dyno sheet?

I'm supporting Rob's fight to use the SAE standard lol. I'm just happy to have broken 300whp

Hey guys, just wondering, for those here that have broken 300whp on similar mods, what octane did you do your tune/dyno at?

Thanks for the review! If all goes well I'll be getting a tune from them in the near future.

You won't be disappointed. Z car garage is the best!

Nice to see, 300WHP, I always use Shell 93 OCT,

SS_Firehawk · 04-30-2012, 05:50 PM

I was at 300whp on 91 octane running PPE LTH's, Motordyne Y pipe w/ cat, and Tanabe exhaust untuned. IT was on a dynojet and my baseline was at 270.

That pulley should show gains throughout the powerband. I wouldn't think you would need retuned if you installed just pulleys. Can anyone else verify? I say this because it isn't a breather mod, it's reducing inertia... it's in the same category as lightweight flywheels driveshafts (in my head anyways).

I had mine done with AEM CAI's and I averaged 10whp until about 6500 rpm, then it was as high as 16 whp. I would say most of those gains before 6500 were attributable to the pulleys I went with.

93 octane at Performance Tuning. Just went today check my album for dyno sheet. I highly recommend them.
