Default New Turbonetics pics and two vids..

So I know we need some more videos. I apologize for the quality of the audio in these. Its not as bad as last time but it could use some help. I plan t get a few more vids this week. Need to borrow a real digital video cam from a friend. The pics I'm putting up right now...anyone wanna host the videos?

Can't make much out on the video, except for the boost gauge flying up. What's on the second one?

And about the pics - looking good at always! So much for the sleeper look - eh?

Yeah sleeper look went out the window....Like I said sorry about the crappy audio. I even had my windows up and the mic still couldn't take the noise... The second one is a few freeway runs right up until I noticed a CHP officer taking interest in a 350Z traveling in excess of 100 MPH...

Hey Mia, Thanks for the vids!! By any chance do you have some from the exterior of the car? Also have you gone to a track? (1/8, 1/4) What are your times? If you haven't what would you guess your times to be? Sorry for all the questions, just chompping at the bit waiting for the kit to come in!

Glad you liked...two more have been uploaded link to come again courtesy of kcobean. As for te G kit...no final word yet. I know R&D is currently going on for it. I also know that Turbonetics wants to get the 05Z and 5AT guys taken care of too so thats also being worked on. Trust me though seeing as how Brad has a G35 and is not accustomed (spelling?) to driving N/A cars there is a big push to get it done.

Roger that,

Thanks for hosting Mia's video. I'll admit it's hard to Drive aggressive and to film at the same time... Try'ed it and results were worse at the 120 to 150 mark. But we have a lot of open Desert roads to test on.

An onboard digital recorder is going to be required, monitoring rpm, speed, boost, EGT, timing, and both O2 Readings to quantify the results of FI modifications.

Also a GPS input should be monitored at Time +0
We found the GPS information to lag some Four seconds behind actual, but speed and bearing was dead nut's on.

Cheers Amy -

Yeah my next mod is going be a camera mount for my new digi video cam that I will be purchasing in the next week. After watching the new videos that jimrhit just sent me I finally realize how truly pathetic my camera is... BTW those will be up in a few...

Just a quick request when MIA puts link to the vids up...Please use the "right click, save as" method of downloading these. They are 21 and 19 MB's respectively and both are under 15 seconds in length (needless to say, the resolution is quite high). I have a 500 GB/month transfer limit, so one download of each video would be appreciated. Thanks!

MIA, nice vids man. That thing looks super torquey (if that's a word )

Default ses light

Just noticed the service engine light in the dash MIAPLAYA. Does that have any effect on performance? Are you gonna reset it or does it come back on?

I was going to ask about that as well. I thought I remembered hearing at one time that your SES didn't come on with this kit. It's probably the O2 sensors that are causing it since there are no cats on the kit.
