Default Alexdax Vortech V3 sci

my car was the seventh to be sold here in Portugal and iīve been around since 2004 with a smile on my face...
but unfortunately things here in Portugal are not the easiest, especially for mid class workers with mid class sports cars.
i have a quality live but the car has been kept for last... and i have more cars to ride.

Now i was finaly able to start my FI project and its already assenbled, iīm now on the final tuning, the car is allready driving fast but still capable of a better tune.

want to share with you this adventure because this is where I come whenever I need anything.
MY BIG THANKS TO MY350Z.COM

Letīs start:
my mods are
- Complete 5.1 + subwoofer Alipne Sound system with touch screen
- Original NISMO rear spoiler
- Front bumper led lights
- Vortech V-3 Sci Tuner Kit
- Walbro 255 gph
- 550cc RC injectors
- UPrev GT MAF
- 2.88 Pulley
- Denso Iridium one step coolder sparks
- Stainless exhaust manifolf e decat pipes

- Uprev Tuner Cable (iīm doing mysel all the tunning)

this is the beginning



The RC 550cc injectores... what color is this?? i istalled it and its all ok but dont know if they are original because they dont have any brand on it. they are working fine. is it normal on RC injectores?



the uprev gt MAF



the spark plugs




The intercooler has a pain in ... because it is not centered with the front of the car, with the bomper in place it doesent matter but still o bit




I read a million things about vorterchs installs and you are all right, the pipes are the must stressful thing on this kit, but with pacience its good...



the blower its a litle difficult to put on because its a litlle heavy i think 2 persons to install it is the best.




The first thing I noticed was the horrible noise that the blower makes, yes i was expecting vortech blower to be laud, but the soud it makes its like... "is it ok? isnīt it broke?"

And... what about the BPV?
yesterday i has getting home in the garage, and my wife heard de Z outside for the first time with the V-3 and i recived this comment "Itīs You? i dindīt recogniced the sound! what have you done it had a sound like BRUMMM and now itīs like a vacum clenar"


trying to tenson the belts to see what happens




Messing with Uprev, Osiris rom editor...







I have a lot of doubts and this is a work in progress project...
i will ask your advise always


fell free to coment (please)
Alex

there is a dipstick on the side of the blower. its hard to get to. might have to take the blower off the car to check. i believe it looks like a gold bolt that uses an allen key.

well...
after some runs on the dyno "Rotronics", messing with UPREV my Z is making 384hp
i donīt think its a good mark but to tell the truth the tunning isnīt complete.
the K contant, the PW, the injectors the fuel targets and AFR in all range are ok but still need to do some work on the cams, detonation,...
were can i learn more about the UPREV? iīm limited because i dont have a proper tunner near.
