Forged Performance: 587whp 350Z Roadster -- Video Inside
Shervin made another trip down to Forged, so we could install our 3 inch recirc downpipes (still protype at this point), RC 1000CC injectors, a full HKS FCON VPro package, HKS DLI II, and a retune at higher boost.
To date, these are the highest numbers we have gotten (on the heart breaker dyno) out of any 350Z/G35 at a just 15psi boost pressure. Certainly the GTM Stage III heads and larger exhaust piping throughout, helped to achieve these numbers. 560whp with pump, and 587whp with a 5 gallon splash (tank was already very full of 93 octane pump) of C18 at the same boost pressure. We had hoped to go for more, but Shervin is going to wait for the CJM Twin walbro carrier.
We also installed the HKS Navigator Pro, which allows the user to see the settings and outputs that the VPro generates. More importantly, it allows the user to switch to various sub maps on the fly. So I dialed in his 93 octane map first, and then created the 5 gallon race fuel mapping as well.
Alberto...look out...Shervin is coming for ya!

FYI, I am heading to Panama to tune a client's car, so I might a bit slow at responding to this thread. If you have any questions, thanks for being patient.
The shop will be open, and running normally. Sandy, Devon, Mack, and Chris are here if you need anything.

Nice! ALthough I'm slightly confused why people want a ZR when they are going for max power. Roadsters are usually way less rigid, and on the street with that much power isn't ideal. But I know we want to look good too.
