1 bar seems awful high for stock ECU. I want info on what was done for the compression ratio....plus how the stock injectors are flowing. Hopefully Nissan learned the lesson with injectors and gave us something out the box that is worthy. The Supra coming stock with 550CC injectors was one reson why it was such a beast for such little money......that and the over-engineered components.
I like the FMIC too, and the BOV venting to the atmosphere is the icing on the cake.......I like to scare the begeezus out of dog walkers. It's the only thing fun since they outlawed paintball drive-by's.

And yeah, they did claim that they'd be upgrading other parts as a part of their final kit when released so we'll have to see exactly what they do and how they do it.
P.S. As for 350ZForum.com, we're going through some server changes and we're on backup right now...so bare with the speed.

As a Z32 owner, you can appreciate how sometimes the simpler things like fitting a damn FMIC behind a bumper or routing some piping can make things a nightmare and hold people back for months or years

it will be interesting to see how long it will last at that level....

I plan on heading out to Ennis soon...wanna come?
I'm getting some more stuff done to the truck and want to get it dynoed again with the new mods and then take it to the track...maybe next weekend.
I'm going to see if the stock z32 wheels will fit on the 350Z....I have a set of rear chrome stock z32 wheels with Nitto Drag Radials on them....if they fit i'm gonna run em

MMM, turbo, mmm. Sexy. I want to hear that thing run. The 350z exhaust note + BOV venting to the atmosphere = orgasmic. I need numbers too, with 14.22 psi of boost this thing should be a beast. Here's an important thought though. If this thing is running at almost 1 bar wouldn't the engine last like two or three more weeks? There are about three or so possibilities for this question:
1. The engine just hasn't gotten arond to blowing up yet but will in a day or two.
2. The VQ35DE is a really, really strong N/A engine with really high tolerances.
3. The engine internals aren't stock.
I am guessing it is one of those possibilites. Hopefully its #2. This brings up another interesting question. What amount of power can the stock tranny deal with? Will the synchros and cogset fall apart like they have on high powered wrx's?
Note: I hope that the modified towhook can be taken off.

I caught the writing on your form and noticed the change in turbo. Didn't see anything about a change in boost though. It still is kind of interesting that a company would prototype something at such a ridiculous level. "Well um, err, We only have one engine so lets see if ummm, err, it can handle a, um, 600 shot of,, umm, nitrous, umm yeah" I am hoping they know something we don't, otherwise I can't see why they would run a prototype system as such high boost unless they are trying to blow up the engine.
