In my old z I didn't once ever switch maps. The other maps are just stupid **** basically.. map 1 = power.. map 2 = 2 step which is useless.. map 3 = duplicate of same power map.. map 4 = valet map.. map 5 = anti theft.

At least that's what mine was setup like

Lol! Thanks. Well, I've been looking for 3" TDX V1 or the APS 3" exhaust. I ended up getting a brand new set at a fraction of the cost. I must be dreaming lol.

It worked out for me and the seller.

There's no point switching, as another poster said, you have maybe a valet map one, but on NA you can't have power/economy maps etc.

Mine is currently set with the map and 5 different throttle sensitivities, which i've left one highest....


The point is you have a tune on the car, so it's running correctly, that's how 99% of cars run tunes.

36grit flap sander on the 4.5" angle grinder to shape it, then a 180 grit flat sander that had scotch brite layered in it in a drill to smooth it out. then used the eastwood polishing kit.

I hope mine turns out as nice as yours. I've polished a few parts before including wheels and valve covers. The Z plenum has some thick casting marks that really needs to be cut down, taking me forever.
