curious, what ECU/EMS is everyone going to run with this part?

I haven't found one that totally satisfies me yet that isn't $5000 when all is said and done...

Wouldn't it be a ***** with the fly by wire? What will it take?

Honda people do DIY projects with Gixxer TB's for less than $1000.

Honda owners also have free reflash software, don't remember what the company is called. Aftermarket parts for Honda's are cheap and plentiful because there are so many owners looking to modify. Probably 20-30% of 350Z owners modify their 350Z. And probably 1-2% want ITB's, to give a more real estimate it's probably more like less than 1%. (just to note, i'd say that ~3% of 350Z owners go F/I also)

what's so important about becoming an inventor on here? MOST aftermarket stuff isn't produced by MY350Z.COMs vendors...

I don't know? Not sure what you want me to say. He told me not to say anything until he becomes an inventor on the site...that's it.

You don't even need to get a hood with a scoop at all and still, collecting cold air from the front air dam will be more than enough!

And that was what I was told by the mech. here in Melbourne... they can custom-made a CF air box for the setup!
cheers,

Ahhh..good man. You know the Bimmers. But also the E28 and E24 M5 and 6 (1986/7 thru 1989). Also the E34 M5 and I think the E38 M5.

PS-E36 M3 in the US made ~250HP with a 3.2L Euro M3's made ~350 with a 3.0L Now that's hawwwt!

I know about it because I used to own a AC Schnitzer Euro E36 3.2L M3 (everything schnitzer)... loved the m3 n/a power so much, so I gotta have the z pulling out as much as the m3 or even more.... I have just done it...

cheers,
