The car ran okay today, but the boost sensor malfunctioned. So, it will be Monday now. The Greddy sensor just did not work from the beginning right out of the box. Oh well, it sounded great and ran real well, real rich, but well. More to follow on Monday.

Late

I had a brand new faulty wiring harness. They over nighted another one for arrival at 10AM tomorrow morning. Should have the car back between 3 and 4PM tomorrow.

I am going for saftey, I asked Mark at SGP to set me at 8PSI. We'll see what that gets me. Hopin for 410 or so. I'll post all states and pics.

Default Who is SGP?

Are they a premier FI shop for Z's?

Questions (if you don't mind)

1. How much for everything?

2. Expected HP/TQ?

3. Any worries about all top end work no bottem end (forged internals)?

Thanks,
BigMike

Yes, SGP is a major Z tuner. Joke didn't do any top end work. He just got the simple kit with exhaust.

Friend of mines car has been down there since late April. He's had everything done to it. Complete build w/ greddy twins and they have built his auto up for 700hp. As soon as his new exhaust gets here and is shipped on down they'll finish the tune. I think the new axles are going down with the exhaust.
So if you saw a silverstone with veilside and nismo graphics and Arkansas tags there, it is his. I think he said it was 440hp @ 2100rpm right now. It'll have the final tune done with the new exhaust.
The hold up was getting the new transmission parts.

Okay guys, got it back about an hour ago. Mark at SGP said that he has not TT one of the new '05 performance motors (300 crank HP). He was very surprised to see the numbers. 398rwhp @ 5psi at 6500rpms, 421rwhp @ 6psi at 6450rpms.
399tq @ 5psi at 4400rpms, 418tq @ 6psi at 4900rpms.
We decided to leave it at 6 for saftey and reliability. We can't believe that it hits these numbers at 6psi. This thing screams pretty good folks... I will have pics of the car and dyno charts tomorrow.
