Default forged perfomance tune 09/29/06

I just had my car tuned at Forged. finally!!!

Great customer service. Nice guys & gals working there.
poor sharif get sooooooooooo many phone calls


2003 g35 coupe a/t * builtZ engine
greddy TT 10psi gutted stock cats & borla TD exhaust

375 hp 365tq (very conservative)

as people had warned, the exhaust was the big restriction.
i'm very happy with the tune, smooth power.............
no need to over stress the auto trans yet
the car starts out fast, then once full boost is reached & the wastegate dumps open & all he|| breaks loose... It'll lose traction at about 5,000rpm's, then when I jump to 2nd gear it looses traction some more, actually if i'm not careful, there's no traction in 2nd at all.

ha! in an automatic no less!

next spring.summer i'll probably get test pipes & a 3in exhaust & retune for 10 & 15psi

next month I'm going to do some 1/4 miles at the Rock and probaly another HSDE at VIR


there were several Z's there at different stages of work

Awesome man, I LOVE the open dumps-all hell breaking loose is a good description of the sound. Enjoy your car and good luck at the track. Post results...

Just to clarify...Jet's car hasnt been at our shop for 4 months...LOL...thats just the total duration its been down.

Bailey, glad everything work out well. People sometimes forget how fast in 375-400whp feels on the road, especially when you can hook up with those massive tires you are running. 5AT's always feel faster than the 6MT....you scared the crap out of Chris when you gave him a ride!!
