Forced Induction on a Automatic 350Z
Thanks to the 3 people that just sent in their VB's for upgrades. Hopefully when more people post about our VB upgrade, they will become the mainstream VB upgrade.
Chirping in 3rd is a lot of fun.

Has anyone tried an actual road course with one? I'd think that the last thing you want to do is chirp (momentarily loose traction with) the rears when accelerating out of a sweeping turn.

I also forgot to consider that I'd be on R-comps so chirping isn't all that likely even at full boost.

Is that VB you're selling upgraded? How much?

So who's running the most power on an auto with a VB upgrade? Not for bragging rights mind you, just interested in what the safe limits for the auto are.
I'll be sending my VB in soon but am only looking to retune for low 400 hp. I'm gonna drive the **** out of it though.

Im at 420whp on a Mustang Dyno , so would think it to be around 470 -480whp on a DynoJet . I havent been boosting it much since I put it on the dyno . I have a head lift problem that needs to be fixed [ or try to fix ] first .
But I have had no problems from the tranny and it seems to be holding up fine
