Cool deal. Sam and I actually spoke about your car not too long ago too. Your numbers will help guide what direction I take with my G. I'm excited to see your numbers!

my z is at GTM right now. they are doing some custom exhaust system upgrades as well as fixing my innovate A/F meter (installing a time delay relay). after that it is going onto the dyno. i told Sam to take his time and i will be back on friday.

unfortunetly i am not. i am going to fly back to cali to pick the z up. it is cheaper to fly than it would be to fuel my truck up for the round trip. i spent $120.00 in gas for the titan for the round trip. a ticket for a southwest flight is $49.00. thats a no brainer!!!!!!!!!

time delay relay, whats that for?

exhaust mods, like a dual 3" exhaust? Someone else mentioned that the standard BPV that comes with the blower might not be big enough. It will be interesting to see what Sam thinks about that.

You'll be ok like mr-PharmD said . I was ok with the T-trim untill I went to the cog pulley system . The serp belt will slip if the back pressure gets to high and save the seals in the blower . With an all cog belt system there is no slippage and the back pressure can get to high if it doesnt release fast enough

not concerned with it holding. concerned about it dumping enough air when you let off the gas. Jet Mech should be much higher than 16 psi as well.

pharmd, you see 16 psi with what trim blower? if thats just the SC trim, thats gotta be about the highest boost seen.

I'm following in booger's footstep with the T trim making ~15.Xpsi at around 6500 rpm on the DD.

the time delay relay is for my A/F ratio meter, Sam said it corrects the inherent problem the innovate meter has on power up ( dashed lines on indicator ) during first power up of the day. exhaust mods will be removing the aps single large muffler due to all of the packing being blown out and installing two strup canisters. 2.5" inlets 4" outlets, they have a straight threw designe and installing a cross over pipe aft of the headers just where the two 2.5" pipes come close together. should have the appearance of a hks system when done and allow a little more flow. it will be a true 2.5" dual exhaust when done. and hopefully it will get rid of the rasp i have due to my 2.5" aps test pipes i installed a year ago. probably not though!
