Default GReddy TT / 5AT / 8:5:1 / 392whp Dyno

Thanks to Sharif, as well Eric and his crew at CP Racing in Charlotte, NC, the GReddy TT in my Z is performing up to par for the first time since it was installed in February, 2004. I was most impressed by the attention paid to detail and open communication. This was very importatnt to me as I had the Z trailered to CP Racing and was unable to be present during any of the tuning or mechanical alterations.

They rewired the ECU/e-manage, fixed a leaky oil fitting, sealed exhaust leaks, re-routed a power steering line and upgraded the line to SS, installed a new suspension and tuned the car in house. They sent her off to be dropped, corner weighted and aligned. All perfect and delivered on time for a reasonable fee.

No CEL's, idle is perfect and the motor pulls like a madman.

I am glad they were able to get your issues resolved. They were working on your car when I was up there getting my tune. I am very impressed by CP Racing and the work they provide.

Thanks all for the kind words...it has been quite the test of patience keeping this project on track.

I concur with the statement made by Jeremy in his thread...CP Racing is the best performance shop I have dealt with. Thier "partnership" with Sharif at ForgedInternals.com places the e-manage user in capable, experienced hands.

The drop in torque is due to the very conservative tune we are pulling out more timing than we need to, but when the car came in KSHEP asked for approximately 400whp and for it to be a very safe tune

Yes, built motor. No desire to blow another one so I'm satisfied with these results.

No plans to track the car but very impressed with the added torque. Builds very fast and with very little lag...really pushes the driver back in the seat for a sense of pure acceleration. It's a shame the car didn't come from the factory with this.
