did you install it yourself? are you using the spead/gear boost option and where did you tap for the gear input? or is it jus straight up connection?

Bobby at cin motorsports installed mine. I was able to hit 9 psi in first gear. He had to do some digging to get the correct signals tapped.

Nice... I was going to start modding again until I saw the new RR Evoque. I'm so happy with the Evoque that I dont even want to drive my G35 now.. I'm pretty sure after a couple of months I'll miss driving my g again.

what ems do you have? I think you have the Haltech right? ask the haltech guys if they compensate for elevation.

ok i'm back home from the trip, it went great, i was getting around 20 mpg. But i started to notice a numbing vibration in my steeting wheel and starting to feel it on the gas pedal. Its sound like a whumming noise but only heard during deceleration or on a steady speed. I had took to nissan prior to my trip and said it was normal, i really dont think so i though it would be an alignment but they said it was good. Do you guys think it may be wheel balancing?

They are all gone!!! lol.. We are the last 2 standing maybe a 3rd and 4th guy just lurking We are just to stubborn to realize there are many other option out there for a trubo kit or in my case too broke to change system.. anyways, since I dont drive my G35 lately, I had expanded my map for 10 psi tune and just ordered more exhaust wrap to wrap the exhaust and the charge pipe. I'm thinking of doing another dyno at 10 psi and see how good is my uber tuning skills.

lol you are really pushing the limits on the vq huh... Yeah i'm still running good so far but going with another tune for 500+ whp daily driven. Sad to see we are the only one's left with the sts kits that talk at least.
