Sweet!
Congrats clem!

thats, stop by next week they should have a lot done by then..

 

i don't see why you can't get more than 500 to the wheels ... straight out of the box on stock internals and everything ran me up to 443/390. so i would assume with your strenghtened internals you could do 550 @ maybe 12-15 boost.

 

you mean your blue blubs can do ALL THAT?

 

they're high performance bulbs

 

Hows it feel to come out!!

This is going to be an interesting summer....

 

lol .. justin (my mechanic) already whored my dyno sheets and vid out so it's not hard to figure out what i'm running.

 

500hp stock block?? Thats not really safe IMO, yes it has been done but the chances of blowing my motor @ that power level is to high. Plus if I wanted more power later on I would have to pull the motor and get the kit off and on again, to much trouble.

i just wanted to do it right the first time, and not worry about a big bang!

Yes I am looking to make more than 500hp,we should hook up this summer and do some 1/4's!!

Are you TT as well?

 

yep, i didn't want to bother with building the block at this point since i would be happy with what came out of the box. either way there's really no point in 1/4 with me since you're running a built block with higher boost. talk to david, he has a friend with a built greddy who you should run. that'd definately be more in your class.

 

Those numbers are so very close to mine 449/387. Stock block too.

That's really cool Andy. Be prepared to have to relearn how to drive the car. This TT kit will really transform it and put it into another class, trust me.

Are you gonna take any pics?

Good luck!

 

must be pricey! lol

 

Yes, I am going to take as many pics as possible, I let you know

 

agreed .. it's like night and day with this kit i just recently went for a test drive in a stock 350z and noticed how much of a gain putting the APS did in terms of power on the top end and in terms of "fun" factor

oh, and madelinot, my #'s are still all over the place as we're still figuring out some tuning issues. for some reason my z is giving me problems with power steering failure and low idle stalls, did you have this problem too after your install?

 

Power steering failure? Nothing like that. Are you sure they put in the steering knuckle back in properly? What kind of failure are you talking about?

Idle is lower, yes. But the car does not stall. And I can't reprogram it with my Cipher because my engine is ULEV2 (2004.5). I would need to send my ECU to Technosquare or something.

Are you still using the Unichip? Who's doing the tuning for you?

Thanks!

 

to my knowledge they put the knuckle back fine after they shaved it, but the failure coincides with hard decelleration. basically after you spool up and then let go of the accelerator or enter a corner quick with hard braking the power steering fails briefly and then comes back. it has something to do with the tune because this happened after the initial install and they fixed it when we tuned her with a unichip programmer ... but it came back again when i was driving her during the cold weather before it started snowing.

i forgot who exactly did the tuning but he was apparently the only unichip programmers in toronto and we contracted him through JRP.

 

Where did you guys order your kits from? I looking at going blown, either turbo or supercharger, and I am just starting to look at what it will cost. The first hurdle seems to be just ordering the kit. Then finding somewhere to tune it...

 

Got mine from GRD in Chicago. They also tuned it.

Yours was probably tuned by Marco Passante from Magnus Motorsports. I saw him, but was not impressed and had to retune it after. I wish we had good tuners around here. That's one of the reasons why I'm gonna be trying UTEC once we get warmer weather.

Later,

 

Are you APS also? Did you get it from JRP? I heard a lot off issues with the Unichip and piggybacks in general. what are other problems are you having?

And there are great tuners in GTA but they don't use Unichip so finding a unichip tuner is hard.

Paul at neetronics is an AEM, Hondata, Emanage, and COBB pro, and several others. If you guys have any questions about tuning give him a call first. He is the best in the GTA. 905-602-1949

 

yeah .. aps with the unichip that comes with the regular kit. when i bought it, i didn't hear much about problems with the unichip, so i just got it thinking it would be fine. but having all these stupid issues with the tune and crap. either way, i'd rather just stick with it for now since i'm going to go FCON after i rebuild the engine, but i guess i'm stuck until then.

and yes, there's only ONE unichip programmer in toronto area and he charges $250 per hour (incl. dyno time) to tune the unichip, which is absolutely ridiculous.
