Default TXSTYLE Drives.........THE BLUE BEAST!!!

*BREAKING NEWS*

After roughly 8 mos. of research & development at JOTECH (premiere sport compact Tuner in TX!)
My friend, neighbor, and Club 350Z-Dallas member: SkiDazzle, has just taken delivery of his TOTALLY Customized Twin-Turbo 350Z!!!
It has already DYNOED at 439 WHP & 390 ft./lbs. torque!!!

And I have just returned from "BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT!!!"

I
N
S
A
N
E!


The car is just S I C K! Power is stupid, and damn near all of it is on tap @ 3k rpm or less!
Very doscile at idle on just casually driving around.
But once you give it throttle (for this example @ 7 lbs boost)............

I got up to @ 80 in 4th.....that was proof enough for me of what awaits MANY cars priced $60k!

It pins your **** back in your seat relentlessly!!!!!!! And the sounds of the wastegates dumping off.........

I came across a late model Vette at a light...........Mike was like..."Marcus......Don't get him."

Naturally, I respected my boys car...........BUT.........I can in all honesty say, after having driven a Z06, Viper and 911 TT..........This car is right T H E R E!!!!!!!!!!

Congradulations SkiDazzle (Mike) on having what is surely the Strongest/Fastest/Vicious 350Z in N. America! And thanks for letting your boy drive on the 1st day of it's long awaited return.


Marcus

From now on, I shall reffer to this car as........."THE BLUE BEAST"

Is this a customized kit or something that's going to be generally available in future?

stock internals...
actually its 432RWHP, 393RWTQ
that's available, setting profec to 10lbs (only for true track 1/4mi and dynoing)
but i keep it at 7lbs now on hi mode, which on the dyno was 390 something hp and 360 somthing torque...
and the low mode is 5lbs which put out 370 something HP and 350 somthing tq.

when i get brave, the power is just a clockwise **** turn away...

i will post the final dyno sheets when i get home from work.
but first, i also have a ride to give brad (droideka)..
i also need to clean her up to take some new pictures (of new clearcorners.com headlights and sidemarkers, and other new pieces.)

i then have to redo all my a/v inside the car, along with finding final spots for all the new electronics.

i am not complaining about all the work... its good to see it in the garage again!

about 0-60... not too good at launching yet, as the clutch starts engaging about 1/2" off the floor, and i am not used to it yet.

Very nice. Is the 412 on 93 octane or race gas?

all runs 370-430HP were all on pump gas 93.
a/f on the 390 run is under 12 the whole way to redline... no need for leaded fuel yet
the 432 run was actually pegged at 10 on the a/f through the max torque range, and finished up at around 12.2 at redline...
