You're best bet will be to read posts on this forum and offer feedback when you are knowledgeable on a subject. If you are don't know the answers to a question or are below the knowledge base of the topic just hang-out and read what others say. As always, stay humble and friendly, and allow yourself to learn. Indeed these are great cars … I've had mine since 2005 and it'll always have a spot in my garage.

If you haven't already purchased your spark plugs, you may want to read this thread. NGK has introduced a new coating for plugs that can be used with the Z:
https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-...for-the-z.html
The thread lists part numbers and gives a short description on what the new NGKs are like. In short, these plugs will last over 100K and should be installed before you get a tune. One item to check beyond that is the type of fuel injectors being used in your Z. Some people have installed larger injectors with the idea that it'll automatically produce more power. That's not the way it works. Even with the bolt-ons you have, standard OEM fuel injectors are what you should be using.

Flames will visually change the way titanium looks so that's probably it. I'll second the coppers being good although I'd rather beef up the ignition and run iridium, I also change my plugs quite frequently. Most racing plugs aren't copper and I believe that has a reason, anyway... check your MAF to make sure it's clean and the air filter as well, keep an eye on oil consumption as that will also cause a rich scenario.
