My GF wont ride in my Z because its too loud.....

 

wah, me and linh both wear ear plugs.

problem solved.

 

I got mine those headphone looking things that they use at the airports.

 

I finally got set on an appt to get my car tuned this saturday at franks...I really hope it does make a good difference...

 

get some ear muffs or ear plugs? atleast it'll cover up the moaning from road dome!!!

 

We'll get the silencers in this week Jgriz! I'm off work Wed if that works for you. I can meet up with you or something. It's just a couple allen bolts that go in the end of the muffler.

 

I took my out too... i didnt feel a damn difference lol.. the sound was different though... with them in, it doesnt sound so "airy"

 

If any girl complains about my car being loud, she can walk.

 

Ethan is becoming da man!!!

 

My ex (aka Monica) would never complain about the car being loud, poor ride quality, etc. The only thing though she always wants me to roll the windows up and turn on the AC. That alone almost made me made her walk.

 

lolololololol

 

Take out the AC. problem fixed.

 

In fact I did!!! hahahaha

 

So i'm wondering something. I have the 3/8 spacer, berk high flows, 3 inch exhaust, k&n filter in the stock box.

Since the stock ECU likes to keep the oem setting, it's compensating for the extra mods to revert back to stock settings.

Now...since i haven't driven another 350z that's stock in awhile, not sure if i actually gained anything... but the question is... does the retune just make the ecu see the new mods and compensate for it and THEN give me the HP that each mod claims?

OR

Did i actually gain HP and the tune is giving me an additional hp on top of the mods i've done...

i wonder how much hp i'll be gaining from this tune

 

you guys crack me up.

Paul I will txt you in a little bit.

 

you should have gained something from just the bolt ons.

To give you an idea, i gained some HP here and there from doing test pipes y pipe exhaust intakes blah blah blah. and then gained some more after the tune.

 

oh right on. Did you do a before and after dyno to see what you had before the tune? and how much power did you gain?

 

yeah i did. ill have to dig up the sheets. It was like two years ago. I honestly do not remember the exact numbers.

 

oh ok... but there was definitely a noticeable gain right? i mean was it enough for the butt dyno to know you've gotten a good amount of power right?

I just wanna make sure I feel gains from doing this. I know it's not gonna be like, "omg this thing is like crazy fast" but to know i'm gonna feel it.

 

Well... the shop who did my tuned fcked up my car pretty bad. The thread should be on here somewhere.

Let's leave it at that.

When all was said and done... there was a slightly noticeable change in the power. also my car revved to 8k after the tune which was fun. but completely worthless haha. but yeah you should see some change.
