Alberto, did I miss what EMS you are using in all this text or did you not list it? I assume V-Pro since I see the DLI, but please confirm.

Nealoc, in regards to correction. The DynoDynamics dyno only uses Standard Atmospheric correction, and does have an option for SAE. This is why Alberto posted the DynoJet standard correction numbers, rather than SAE. Same gear pulls, same correction, along with dynoing within 5 hours of completing the tuning on the DD...results in the most accurate comparison between the two dynos.

Hey Alberto, although this has nothing to do with your build (Amazing power and in time equally impressive timeslips) I noticed those hood struts with little to no cover mod. for those to work. Could i ask where you bought and who makes them.

Another great job from Sharif and Forged, and hopefully those timeslips and vids come soon.

Alberto,

Sweet setup man, I bet you're on cloud nine now and really itching for some track time!

Good luck!

I can't wait to go FI. I wouldn't sleep at night if I was in your shoes. I would want to be out cruiseing around. Now I don't know if I should go with the greddy or the aps.

Yeah I heard man, thats too bad, maybe next time

To answer a few Q's-yes I am still using the UTEC.

Still stock axles, Im gonna push these until they break then Stage 5's ($$$ is obviously tight now) I just hope I can hit a few 1.6 60ft's (shouldnt be an issue) and we'll see what I can run. I'm gonna run as low of times as possible in low boost, then turn it up

Yes, Mike did the work, I was very happy. www.thepowdercoater.com - if you guys need work done, he has many colors and finishes, and he's a Z owner, so support him....

The hood struts were a group buy done a forum member/Z owner HarvesterUT or something like that IIRC-check the GB forum for info. I installed these while the car was blown up in my garage, I needed to work on the Z

Thanks for the kind words guys. Edit-here is the dyno vid from the Dynojet down the street, teaser vid with 135mph blast and drive by's tomorrow-along with dyno graphs I didnt have a chance to scan today.
