Just ordered a Vortech v2 "Tuner" kit with fmu and fuel pump, but no piggyback. I have an Accessport already, but can't seem to find any info or see any instances using this to tune with a supercharger. Is it possible or recommended? Any feedback greatly appreciated. Not looking to go nuts with the setup, looking for around 375-380 whp on my 04 track.

 

i have a utec for sale if youre interested. has a couple of maps loaded for turbo. itd come with map selector and map sensor. and wiring too.

 

I'm fairly sure cobb specifically says not to tune FI with the access port...

 

hey i got the split second box, aka black box that comes with the vortech kit.... let me know selling it for cheap...

 

Please dont buy a utec(garbage) or the black box(garbage) 2nd post is correct. Try to at least find a uprev tuner. Even if you have to drive a ways

 

True, thats why i went with Haltech...

 

Cobb has tunner software on web site to tune with...

 

True, but that's not the OP's concern - OP has the accessport tuner and wants to tune with it. I don't believe (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that Cobb makes another instrument to tune a FI system on a 350z…whether they have the software or not -

uprev or haltech...

 

+1 sell the Cobb and go with Uprev

 

Tuning FI with cobb isn't much different than Uprev with FI (aside from better support from Uprev, as Cobb has discontinued support for the VQ35/37). With either platform you're still just remapping the stock ECU with zero FI-specific tuning parameters or safety mechanisms. Although for supercharger I think it's fine -- overboosting is uncommon and tuning is alot more simple.

 

Well said djamps... the same level, especially with the supercharger can be achieved . Both allow injector control and size..inj duty cycle,etc ...via a laptop. Cam adjustment... except total control on HR motors...not sure about that one.

 

Had a friend that used the AP to tune his boosted 370, ran great as I recall before he sold the car.

 

Cool deal. I ended up getting a great deal on the SS black box (thanks sracura) and will run that if i can't get the Cobb set up right. I would much rather run a walbro and 550cc injectors than the FMU and stock squirters. Just need it to run good enough to drive it across town to get tuned on a dyno.
