As of right now, no plans to make an AeroRotor for the Track Z...I've gotten lots of request for this...but too many other things on the plate. We already have more products for the Z than any other car (gee I wonder why? ). No more discussion on this topic here though guys...don't want to hijack this good thread. Yell at me for not making those in a separate thread. Thanks.

You wish that was a mustang dyno plot!

As long as the cams don't cause a stall at a stoplight...fine by me!

If you don't bump the idle 150-200rpm, you WILL stall at a stop light if the A/C is OFF. Little bumpy bump of the idle and all set. I did not advance timing for these cams or anything. Just bumped the idle.

why are you (and the 2004) wanting to retard the timing 2 degrees, what does it do?

Default How much for the install?

How many hours of work were you charged to have the cams installed? And where?

total time was somewhere in the 13-15 hour range I believe. It was done by Crawford.

How did you bump the idle. Are you still going to advance your timing, or is that unnecessary? OR do you not need a timing advance because you bumped the idle? IDK, i'm clueless on this subject...please inform me

Normal baseline for the Z runs around 237-240 ... so figure this was a 40ish rwhp gain.

Bumped idle with the Nissan Consult (dealer will have to do it). I didn't need a timing advance. Ran the dyno to see if I needed it. Turns out I don't so it won't happen

Think a TS-tuned car could hit 300rwhp on the dyno? Any other little NA bolt-ons that could be tossed in to hit that magic number?

JWT flywheel and UR pullies. not sure on the TS ECU. mjedens had internal engine work bumping cubes and compression a bit mixed with heavier cams, flywheel and pullies ... guess we will see if I can catch him over the next couple of months

$5000 give or take a few bucks could have bought you a FI setup, but theres warranty and reliability factors that go beyond that. NA is always the expensive route -- but probably the best choice for a daily driver and overall reliable car.

Analyzed your chart and compared with a few of mine. Noticed an ever slight drop in low end torque, but theres an amazing boost from just under 3500-5000 and then it returns to normal. As for HP, the line is the same as mine until it gets to exactly 4k as you said... and it keeps on climbing.

You'd REALLY benefit from a higher redline. Also, you may want to consider the UR crank pulley. With ECU and pulley you'll be over 290, if not more.

I'd love to see what kind of trap speed you'd get on a dragstrip.

Flywheel and pullies are next. The cams are the reason for the low end torque drop. you REALLY can feel the cams kick in (and hear them on the dyno). Not sure the ECU will do anything but raise the limiter. my fuel was between 13.1 (high RPM) ans 13.5 (low RPM).

Tax money is a coming .... and my $3000 patio is a pouring

Also, I can add FI anytime ... the mods aren't limiting anything ...

Good numbers and great A/F!! My 2 cents worth- only increase the rev limiter!!! When I find time , I'm going to the dealer and getting the ECU put back to original and then sending it off to TS to just flash the rev limiter!

Gotta love the mods on this car. Looks and sounds amazing. Also, got to love the Aeros on SB, heh, wish I had the brakes to match.

Personally, for that money, I would go FI, but to each is own(of course, reliability is an issue here). Like 350trackz said, he can still go SC with his current mods, and I must say, that would be a bada$$ setup.

Treads like this let me know that I made the right purchase with the Z.

whoa those are awesome numbers man. Now if only my car could hit somewhere close to that ahhahah. Hey I was wondering why you chose hi-flow cats over test pipes? Wouldn't test pipes have netted you more hp or am I wrong?
