I have a 06' MT base Z with:
JWT pop charger
AAM angled Spacer
MREV2 Lower Intake Manifold
Strup headers
AAM High Flow Cats
Stock Y-Pipe
Nismo (back of y pipe) exhaust

I plan on getting a Motordyne resonated y-pipe and a tune.

Any suggestions on the tune, and any ideas to make this car faster?

I thought about getting a LSD with different gears but want something thats not annoying on the highway.

I would like a car thats capable of a mid - low 13 sec 1/4 mile

 

You should be there already mid to low 13s

 

Nice setup, the xyz will compliment the other exhaust components very nicely. Along with an uprev dyno tune u should be good to go.

 

Boost.

 

Im pretty much at the same point you are and UPrev tune is next on the list to bring it all together. I also have 4.08 and its one of my favorite things i've done on the car.

 

LSD is a great idea.

 

Traction is always a nice thing.

 

i say Tune then if looks are done suspension. Of course for tune uprev>Everything else(NA)

 

Tune

LSD

That thing should be capable of low 13's easy

 

tune
clutch type LSD
DRs

see what it can do like that and go from there.

 

Wow nice setup. Make sure to make a thread on your dyno numbers. I'd say your capable of breaking 300whp. If it were my car, I'd have it tuned, then just start saving for boost. Good luck!

 

maybe 268ish whp not 300

 

My friend's Non revup made 276 on a mustang dyno, and didn't have some of the above mentioned mods. This guy has a revup.. He will definitely break 290, capable of 300.

Also OP, look into lightweight flywheels and clutches! How did I forget that...

 

I have an 06 with mods similar to the op's +++ and am at 271/262WHP

 

thats why you dont compare dyno numbers. However you can compare Quarter mile times

 

Thanks for the compliments and the help.

For those that mentioned suspension: I have tein s-tech springs on stock struts/shocks (40k miles on the shocks/struts) and hotchkiss sway bars. I'm satisfied with this set-up.

Asthetics and interior are also complete: so getting my Z a bit quicker is really the last thing left to complete.

I am not interested in boost believe it or not. I've had several turbo-charged cars and I've found that N/A vehicles generally require less maintenance in the long run.


What tune do you guys recommend and what should I expect to spend?

As for the diff....I have little knowledge in this department. I've been entertaining the idea of drifting and the differential I have would never allow that. I was told that LSD is the way to go.
Do you all agree?

What type of gears would I go with if I want a little better acceleration without sacrificing top speed too much? I also don't want my rpm to be too high at highway speed.


Thanks!

 

get a clutch type 1.5 way LSD
OS GIKEN is my recommendation.
if you are staying N/A get some 4.08fd or 4.3fd
