Unfortunately, a lot of memebers have damaged their engine with the stock Greddy setup and tune. It's more like a tuner kit, and its missing a few items....namely timing retard, and a better fuel system. Here is a list of the "basics" for safe operation. You could also elect a UTEC over the EU: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156630

In fact, one member literally installed the kit, and drove around the block and the engine blew up at 5.5psi.

I ran mine on the stock boost and stock out of box tune for about 6 months and about 6K miles. Haven't had any problems with the out of box tune, except that it was very rich. However, I would suggest that you tune it, unless your waiting on some breathing mods, then you might want to wait a litte till all is installed and then tune it. I didn't have any problems because I closely monitored my gauges.

The timing harness from greddy is only about $40. Not sure how much the labor is for it, but shouldn't be much at all. You could just street tune (be really careful though) it a little until you finish your major mods, and then get a real tune on the dyno.
