Base tune done, ProEFI running well. Now time for some real tuning and to see where we end up at. Here are a couple videos of the car/sound/and just the shop and you'll see the Mustang that was holding up the car the whole time at TPS.

Overall shot of the new setup.

BBK 75MM Drive by Cable Throttle body, looks nice and clean as they fabbed up a spacer to connect it to the intake manifold.

You can see how we mounted the Idle Air Control Valve right there to the Throttle body and in the videos you'll here it.

Just a shop walk through. There is the mustang that held up my car for so long in the beginning of the video.

I like the bracket for the throttle cable, looks nicely integrated (which reminds me I need to redo mine one of these days!)

Thanks man. You see how we mounted the IAC in the pics? The setup looks very stock the way it is now! Very sleek.

No we mounted it there, the throttle body didn't have any provision we created an opening for it and put it there.

gotcha - if you have any details on the setup, shoot me a pm, would be nice to integrate it into mine as well (looks like we're using the same, if not similar, throttle body)

As always, builds take time and updates are soon to come as we wrap up the tune and get a final dyno.

Alright, well got the air/fuel going pretty well. Did not get into the cam timing at all and there is still work to be done fine tuning that and the a/f ratio but we do have a good power dyno. 299.2whp. If and when the tuner gets a chance he'll get back on it in a couple weeks to see how much we can squeeze out of the C2 Cams here. I'm definitely pretty satisfied and until Barry has a dyno this is the highest NA B15 sentra I believe. And we do still have work to be done as we tidy things up and a few other tricks up our sleeve in the next few weeks to come. 8-) Here is a picture and I will post the videos once they upload to youtube. And this dyno is known to read right on the money and to be the dream killer for those anticipating more.

Nice man, I had a B15 I bought new in 03 (Spec V) I ended up trading it in for the Z. At times I miss my old car and seeing yours brings up some good ol memories.
