after a few weeks, we ended up working on the tuning and riching it back up cause it was running so lean because of the cams. so after messing with uprev and some good help from the 350z community we got a good enough tune and rich enough to take it to the dyno after i installed Charles new CJ motorsports fuel return system with 600cc deatchwerks injectors..... She went from to lean to way to rich with the 600cc injectors installed and flooded it haha. tweaked with the tuning again and got her back.....

i mounted my regulator in a different spot only cause im **** about it being a nismo and i didnt want to drill holes in the back of the firewall. I used a existing hole thats for a plastic clamp for the hardline going to the brakes behind the second firewall where the battery is... i put a bolt and nut there after drilling a hole through the regulator braket that it comes with and moved it over using just one hole to mount it. once tight it was all good and didnt move anywhere....

after everything was put back together and primed the new walbo 255 pump i installed and everything checked out good with no leaks. i put everything back and installed some new blitz intakes to feed the new cams. these things seriously breath!! they look like they dont, but man they breath very well. intakes scream under full load lol.

after everything was done and we messed with the tuning we got the car running. she was running very strong pre tuned on the dyno... the car no longer wants to fall on its face after 65-6800 rpm like the factory cams. it pulls very strong past redline.... lets see how she does after a tune with 100 octane and then E85 next month....get her prepared for boost....
