Forged Performance Brings you a New Tune!!! 437 wheel

Tyler4 · 01-28-2008, 11:39 AM

What's up guys? I decided it was time for a couple new upgrades so that i can be a little more prepared for my build this summer. I took the car down to Forged for a SGP wastegate relocation kit, a BBK, the Greddy EVOTT, and a new tune w/ more boost. And long story short, I came away with some wheels that you guys might recognize also.

I had Sharif turn the boost up to 10 psi (I was at 7.7). I went from 382whp DD to 437whp DD. I'm building this summer anyway so I wasn't scared to push it a bit. Dyno chart is smooth as butter. Sharif, do you want to post it up?

All in all i am extremely happy with the results. The car pulls so much harder than before. The open dumps sound just as mean as everyone described them. The BBK is great too, the difference in high speed stopping power is night and day.

I know it's been said over and over again but Sharif and his whole crew were more than great with everything. We ran into a couple speedbumps but he did more than his part to make sure everything went smooth and I was satisfied.

Anyways, just thought I would share. Sorry for the crappy pics. I'm a terrible photographer and plus I'm at work.

Recognize these?

Looks great. Are you the person that bought Sharif's brake kit also? Great job.

Noice...

Tyler4 · 01-28-2008, 01:12 PM

Thanks guys-Yea, I bought his AP Racing set up. Love it.

Philty-Saw your car there and love it, very nicely done.

Philthy · 01-28-2008, 01:18 PM

Thanks - I miss my car

I just need to stop adding crap to it and go pick it up already... hopefully in two weeks.

I saw your car there today. I was thinking it was completed but apparently not. Looks great though and I am sure it will be a monster on the streets.

I curse you for buying that setup before I could get the money for it.

When Sharif told me how much he wanted I almost sold a kidney. You got a great deal.

Tyler4 · 01-28-2008, 01:29 PM

^Ha! Yea, there was no way i could pass it up.

blueper4mancez · 01-28-2008, 01:30 PM

wow man , this is what i was thinking of doing . i'll be going down there in may for a retune . i had the exact same boost setting and power you discribed . i'll do a 10psi tune as well .btw congrats on the new number.

2004Black350z · 01-28-2008, 01:33 PM

Very Nice! I want those wheels so bad. I love black with gold same I got but couldnt afford Volk lol.

taurran · 01-28-2008, 01:33 PM

Those look like Sharif's old wheels and brakes. Is he parting out his Z?

Those offsets/lips are reallly aggressive in front. They look best with an aggressive body kit.

Tyler4 · 01-28-2008, 01:35 PM

^They are. He is turning it in to a track car and switching to a Stoptech BBK.

I am still debating what kit to get. I love the INGS on your car but like you said, maybe something more agressive? Any suggestions?

IslandZavage · 01-28-2008, 02:00 PM

congrats.. car looks good..

might i suggest the cwest long nose kit

w/ a sbc wing. I think that would look fuggin sweet with those wheels

Tyler4 · 01-28-2008, 02:53 PM

Thanks for the help but for some reason I'm just not a big fan of the long noses. No disrespect to the ones who have em, just not my cup of tea.

I have always been a big fan of the INGS N Spec though, but if I got that then my car would be identical to Sharifs's, so I'm trying to find something else.

thawk408 · 01-28-2008, 03:29 PM

Another TTZ in TN! Sweet!

Alberto · 01-28-2008, 04:06 PM

Very strong numbers. Thats perfect power with stock FD/block IMO. Other new goodies look good also....

GolfinZ · 01-28-2008, 04:29 PM

What ems are you running?

Zlayer · 01-28-2008, 04:32 PM
