4. HKS F-Con V-pro with Knock Amp
5. HKS Hypermax II coilovers
6. Axis Hiros with Rosso 245F 275R
7. Brembo Drilled Rotors with braided lines
My 350z puts out 443.9 whp and 406.3 torque running at 6psi

Nice results! So you ditched the unichip. Doesn't that affect any warranties w/ APS? Will forged internals & higher boost come into play in the future? Is that the reason why you ditched the unichip? Sorry for all the questions.

Do you have any pics of your install? I would love to see some, as I am considering going with GT as well. Were they fairly priced?

Seems kinda high for only 6psi, even if you do have cams.

Hey, I was wondering whose ride that was. I was going to ask SAM to see if I can take it for a SPIN.........JUST JOKING. How do you like the APS on the G35? and what are your plans in the future for your car? Oh BTW the F-CON just blew my mind. When I got the car back it felt like a got a brand new modified car. The drivability and the POWER are just amazing!!! Thanks to Sam for tuning my car.

Narkotic, I think I saw your car there tonight when I dropped off my white 350z. Look for it when you go pick up your car. It should be there till June 25. I went with the APS Twin Turbo, cams and F-con, pretty much the same setup as Rough.

Thought you may want to check out the post in the FI section. I posted the info to see what people thought of this setup. Got some haters in there. Check it out.

RD... Check your regular E-MAil..

I had a lot of Questions...

After Looking at your Dyno Results - I was very impressed - With both Numbers.. And your Choices of product..

Regards and Cheers Amy -

Nick: I looked at the other thread and Dis-Agree with those you indicated..
This install will set a "Standard" for APS
and Sam
And F-Con V-PRo
and the FI forums.

Are you sure it was 6 psi and not 8psi? 6psi is the level of the stock boost actuators, so it sounds like a boost controller was not used.

These numbers are unprecedented for 6psi, which is the only reason I am asking. That works out to roughly 35whp per 1psi, vs. the 20-25whp we normally see....max.

Which dyno were these readings taken on? What octane fuel??

Hats off to the tuner if everything is correct, and he got this much power out of 6psi...and the motor is holding up.

Yup tripled checked with Sam at GT Motorsport about the boost and its running on 91 octane gas and 6PSI. It was taken on I believe a dyno jet. Also the results were sent to HKS you can talk to them too.

Thats a really amazing tune job. Nice work. I know the cams are probably responsible for a good deal of the gains. But no questions...hats off to the tuner!
