Wink Vortech+Nismo+Resonated straight pipes

Just installed the resonated straight pipes today. My car now sounds mighty angry at full throttle, love the sound. Seems to have smoothed out some flat spots througout the rev range and it pulls like a train!!!

I'm the only Vortech powered 350z in the UK, that I know of!
There are a couple of Stillen powered cars in the country.
People are getting into the Forced Induction side of things on the 350z in the UK. Parts, running costs and purchase costs are so much higher over here, it puts some folk off.
My car, based on the current exchange rate would cost $ 51000 !!!!!! so you see where I am coming from.

No its the same map as you get. Our highest octane is 98.5RON which is pretty damn good. I went 1 step colder and the AEM shows offscale rich at WOT in the upper RPM band. Never had any pinking at all. Getting it tuned next month.
Keepin the spirit alive!
