Yes, they are doing the install.

I would bring it done today if I could make it. Last dyno it was a 330whp with a stock vortech and a auto

Nah. Apparently, I had a 350Z intercooler, not a G35 one. So Bill is going to work on getting the right one. In the meantime, my car is stuck at MAC. I have to say, though, Bill (of MACAutosports) has been great about it, really working on getting my car to me.

I can't wait for it to be done!

Anytime guys! Glad everyone made it out. Awesome numbers for everyone. Sorry to hear about your G Dave. Saw the kit and it looks killer! BTW: Where did you get that rear GT Spec brace? Kevin & I notice that. Let me know when you get it dynoed and I'll try to come up if I'm off.
Also, Rich How did your UTEC tune go?

It'll be dynoed sometime this week, when the IC gets here and gets installed. (I hope, at least)

I got the GT Spec rear brace from Performance Nissan in California. Really easy install. Don't know how much it actually does, but it can't hurt...

Damn man! is this an acceptance speech? Here's my 2 cents...f'n LONG DRIVE, hung over as hell (thank you Vicodan) Saw many Subbies that could hand me my @ ss, I now know on paper my Z has a 2" ***** other than that.......
Seriously I had a good time, driving the Apex Z was WELL WORTH all the other stuff...
Thank you Academy, thanks to Kevin, Robert and Justin. Thanks to Nick and Bill my beaUTILFUL WIFE kERIN WHO WITHOUT THIS WOULD not be possible. Thanks to all the booze tonight for the typing skill that made this crap possible.
Thanks for a certain couple going to bed early tonight so I had to put myself in this position (j/k!)
And last of all I thank me for always being there for me and for being such a stand up person....
Good night, God Bless

You can download a free program from DynoJet to view thos .DRF files.

Here's the link: http://www.dynojet.com/downloads/software.aspx

BTW, if anyone has trouble finding the software, let me know and I can email you a .zip of it.

Great meeting everyone yesterday!

NP with the UTEC software help there Kevin. Thanks for the ride in your wicked fast Z. Thanks to Justin too for the ride in his wicked fast Z! Both you guys are killing me - I want F/I now baby!

My numbers were pretty good considering I am totally stock except Nismo C/A and a Utec.

My first pull on the stock Utec setting (map position zero) was 234.83 hp.

My best run, was my second to last run after Nick did the Utec Tune:
238.64hp 227.49torque

BTW, has anyone figured out how to see torque numbers on this free viewer of .drf files? I have the 227.49 torque listed on the print out of my best run thanks to NIck, but when I view my other runs in the free program, I can seem to get that to show up. Not possible in this freebie?

Thanks again to Robert for putting everything together.
