Godspeed
I don't think RobertK being shy and not posting is something we have to worry about.

I'm looking forward to checking out that UTEC and hearing about the install/tuning process.

By the way...........my buddy over at TC's is going to be doing alot of playing around with this UTEC thing. You may want to consider him for your install Robert, he should be quite schooled up on it by the time you get back.............Yes, I am Tobi's pimp.

Just a tip................the thing that will help you drop the most E.T. the cheapest is to lighten up this heavy pig we call a 350Z. I should know better then anyone. I used to run consistant 15,1, 15,2, 15.3's and then I decided to really start eating the cheeseburgers, doughnuts and beer and now I am consistant 15.4's and 15.5's or slower.

Moral of the story, don't be like Mudd and lighten up the car.

Thanks for the info about TC's. Is he a mostly Honda shop though? Think I've heard of him on HAI. I might check him out but I have a buddy in the Springs that is going to teach me how to tune w/ the UTEC. Also there is a new shop in the Springs w/ a dyno. Next is Nick at Mac. I'll just have to check out this shop in the Springs first.

As far a lightening up the Z... I need to lighten myself up to. I'm a big boy that could use to lose a couple or 10 lbs. I mostly go to have fun. I'm not out for bragging rights or to beat records. I like hanging out with car guru's, have some friendly racing, and than talking $hit or laughing and hearing someone talk %hit to me.

Honestly I like to be in the 14's. The best I did w/ my Evo was 14.3 at PMI. Now I'm not thinking I'll get that but be nice to know I have a 14 sec N/A car up in this altitude.
