i own an 07 wrx. i love the power and the handling of it. but i also love that of a 350. my dad owns one and i love the way it feels. im thinking of trading for a 350. i know my wrx inside and out and i know what id need to do to get to my power goals. but what about a 350. ive priced exhaust and intake but what about getting tuned? i can just reflash my ECU through my computer and im done. i know its not as good as a pro tune but it works for my needs. so how much does a tune actually cost? or do i have to by engine management? do they take easy to engine mods or are they finicky? thanks in advance for your advice.

you can check out the Cobb Accessport and Technosquare reflash. depends on your engine though, DE or HR.

difference between DE and HR?

The HR came is for the 07-08 years the DE is for 03-06.The HR engine responds better to mods than the DE does plus it revs to 7500 stock.It all depends on what are your power goal and how much you can spend on a Z.

Why did you buy a WRX if you wanted a 350Z?

grex07

at the time i wanted a WRX. which was a year and a half ago. i live in maine where it snows a lot so i got it for the AWD and power. im getting ready to move to florida where i wont need the AWD.

grex07

what do you think the pros and cons of a Z are?

jray8

easy:
1. great looks
2. nice torque
3. Handling

bad:
1. people stare too much
2. they are becoming the "civic" of yesteryear
3. some would say it weighs too much

price

Cons-

Get the Osiris software. www.uprev.com Pretty much all the tuning you need for a n/a vehicle

E-licious

Damn, that must one hell of an engineering marvel since it revs up to 75k

yea... DO NOT get cobb for z, unless it's a custom tune. z has no tubrbos, thus it's not easy to get power with just a tune.

fiy, a custom tune with 2 hours on a dyno got me 15whp ( uprev) ... and i am stocked about it.

so right now my N/A HR is making over 300whp - not much by boosted standards.

OK. Move to Florida then get a 350Z. See you later.

I left my STi for the my current Z.

I do not miss the SUBARU at all! I've had several subarus in the past 10 yrs and im loving every second in my Z.
