Are you doing it yourself? Have fun, and I mean that in a good way. Nothing better than the sense of accomplishment!

COMPTECH USA is the best installer I have ever witnessed first hand. The people there and there shop is AWESOME.........They built and customize NSX's and want to possibly venture into our land..........They did all the R&D mods for Mini Mania on my Dad's Mini Cooper S...........I just feel good to leave my car over night in there hands as I know them really good .........plus I got a GREAT deal on the install as half the cost is R&D write off.........MOTORSPORT DYNAMICS is very knowledgable when it comes to the R4 software and SS Box thus they will do the tune.........Henry has never done a VORTECH, just ATI kits and has expressed his concerns with the 350Z ECU and see's why ATI kits have blown up due to no timing adjustments and the SMART 350Z ECU...........and Enthuzed sent me his modified map, should be interesting.

well i have made the decision to run my Nitrous with my Vortech and have it all tuned on Thursday........I think running my 75 fuel jets with my 55 nitrous jets should make her on the rich side when running the nitrous. I will also have it set up to only activate under full throttle as normal and cut off at 4,000 rpm...........should be very quick with all the extra torque down low, that is the main reason for doing this. Do you all think I am NUTS!!!....I am beginning to think I am......
