Good job Bri....I should be right behind you in the spring....

I think it will be less than a year before you see someone break 600whp on a stock bottom end.
Thanks bro my thoughs exactly......

Yeah from what I seen so far, Ted is pushing out some strong number. No matter what kind of kit you bring to him. He did a Greddy car with 7 psi got 430 if I remember. I think that was Tim's car. As far as tuning go I think he's one of the best tuner near the bay. Also big up to ZCG too. Two great shops who love Z. My brother, who current is getting his Greddy install by Ted and his crew, is creating a form for his shop. This form will focus on tech spec, tuning, mod and No B.S bashing etc.... wait for that to come soon. I believe BriGuyMax is right! Who know it potential of this motor it's so new that mistake will happen. And again to bigbri, congrad for those big number. Can’t wait to film your car in action.

What about fuel system? -- Are you finding it necessary to upgrade to the larger return system and Adj. FPR?

Sorry all of the questions.

wow, don't blow her up. Try not boosting in 4th and 5th gear to redline. Thats where your more likely to blow her up.

Just for you bruce.......




The blue and red are mine.....you see the graph stops at 6500 rpms...this was at 16lbs boost making about 567whp at 6700 rpms but we had a problem with the mass air flow blowing out and putting the car in safe mode so we turned it down to 15lbs boost and made 551whp at 6700rpms... same curve.... look at how nice that power curve is =) The green is an average of all the Z's he's ever dynoed... lol look how ****ed up that curve is...

I think he's asking if you're still using the boost control solenoid that came with the APS kit. Do you have a seperate electronic boost controller or are you setting boost through the unichip?
