What's up guys. The last "Update on my Z" thread was just getting too cluttered, so I decide to start a new one.
Mods:
K&N Typhoon Intake
AAM Plenum Spacer
Greddy EVOII exhaust
DC Sport Headers
Strup Test Pipes
JWT Lightened Flywheel
ACT Z32TT clutch
Nitrous Express (NX) wet kit
NX purge
Zex bottle heater
DynoTune Nitrous TPS/Window Switch
PTP Fuel Tap (AAM clone)
UTEC Engine Management
UTEC Map Selector Switch
A little history:
I went to SGP to get headers, plenum spacer, and UTEC installed n tuned. We had warranty issues with the headers. New headers were received and installed. Then the stock clutch went out while on the dyno. Might as well throw in a flywheel if we're doing the clutch.....and here we are. She looks completely stock (minus the exhaust sticking out the back and the ricey sound from the test pipes when I hit the gas). I just put new rubber on some 20" Axis mods which will be going on Tuesday before I leave to go to the NW meet. Pretty happy with the results. Just filled the bottle over the weekend....now its time to play!! Chart below. Chart shows all motor, 75 shot, and 150 shot. Keep in mind this was done on a dynapack. Dynojets tend to read a little higher. Questions and comments welcome.

I thought you were getting it tuned after the clutch replacement. Where are the Dyno sheets from the final tune? Those sheets are dated Oct. 25 you should have something with a date from Nov something...

One can only hope to do it as good as you Jeremy. We shall see. DRs are on the list to buy now. Street tires are gonna have me spinning like crazy. Had to buy the 20" tires for my dubs first (gotta have a little SHOW to go with my GO) lol.

Yea, I have an extra set of rear stock 18s sitting in the garage waiting for DRs. Just gotta have someone drive out there with me or roll on them to the strip. I dont think MT makes the streets in my size. Gonna have to go with something else. Made me wish I bought 17s for the strip. Good thing is, when I have em on, it looks like I'm rolling on stockers....

Don't forget to take the bolt off the hub otherwise the wheels will not go on. Had me stumped for about half an hour til I realized I read something on the forums about taking it off. The stock wheels have a window where they fit into.

Are you running the 150 shot on pump gas... The reason I ask is because I have a pop charger, 5/16, mrev2, test pipes, Borla TD, Utec and a NX kit with a 125shot and I put down 351HP 383TQ on a mustang dyno and was wondering if I could step it up to a 150 shot without having to run higher octane fuel

yea, 2 step will take a little more heat out....you'll need all you can get when you squeeze that much.

damn...be careful when retarding timing....pull too much timing and you'll end up burning your exhaust valves.
You should be ok with everything you have. I just got 2 step colder plugs as a precaution. I heard ppl experiencing less or NO knock when they go from 1 step to 2 step....turbo or nitrous. I haven't logged one knock on the UTEC. So far so good.
