Well i am thinkin about gettin one of these ECU, piggy back. I heard you can get a lot of HP and it goes well with whatever your doing down the road. I feel that THe computer really helps the motor out. I just want to know and sugestions, has anyone get a controler. like a APEXi AFEC? or HKS? or Greddy. anyone got an opinion of them NEG or POS i just want to kno which one works is the best for a N/A setup...cant afford turbo yet... but N/A is something i can play with right now..but once i can afford turbo i kno i'll be ready for it...=o)

 

Utec

 

go with either the emanage ultimate or the utec. You'll want something that allows you to not only adjust the air/ fuel ratio, but also the timing. Apexi can't do this and is the more limited of the 3 in tuning capabilities. Don't know much about hks. If you honestly think you're going f/i in the future go with the emanage ultimate.

 

By HKS do you mean the VPRO? That is nearly a $5K setup installed and would be an awful waste on an otherwise stock Z. I don't know that HKS makes any other EMS. Honestly, don't mess with any piggy backs. Just save up for FI if you are serious about it. Going FI will cost a minimum of $8K for the single turbo setups and closer to $12K for the TT setups. You'll also need bigger wheels and tires ($4K), a new clutch/fw ($1200 installed), guages ($1K installed), and upgraded radiator and oil cooler ($1K installed) with any of the setups to be safe. You'll probably want some suspension mods at this point as well as a BBK so ad another $7K. If you seriously never see yourself putting $20K-$30K more into your car, then let the idea of FI go. Just mod your brakes and suspension and get your car to a track and throw it around. Doing all the bolt-on mods will get you to near 300rwhp with an EMS and tune. That will also cost you near $6K.

 

12k for a twin turbo setup?!?!? is it tripple gold plated? where r u getting these figures? if u honestly know someone that payes those prices send them my way. personally i think youre high. the greddy tt kit RETAILS for 4k, whosale even cheaper. the procharger kit is like 5k.

 

hahah yeah... i mean ur WAY up there....but i got hook up on pretty much anything i want...i just want to kno which one works the best...and I never at about the PRICE and how much it would cost..i kno wut im gettin into..but i just want to kno wut workst the best...i guess ULITMATE? or UTEC? does anyone have a link or the product for this?

 

Yea, both you guys are in for a shock. Nevermind all the people that have gone FI and paid. I am sure you know better. You can get a Greddy kit for under $4K huh??? I am sure that will be complete. You don't have to believe me. All I have are reciepts and have seen many other people's receipts. You go for it though. Would you mind posting what you believe are the parts you will be needing along with their prices? I can fill in the gaps for you. That goes for either of you. I'd like to see this fantasy turbo system of yours.

 

this sucks nobody has ANSWER my question!!!!

 

your not going to get "alot of HP" out of anything that isnt under the FI section.

 

The answer is UTEC......now run out and get one. Nevermind answering my question.
