Smile Got My Z Tuned to 285 whp :)

Went to Church Automotive because of my350z recommendations. I was having pinging issues I wanted to get fixed. Sean confirmed I was getting a lot of pinging, he fixed that for me and I gained hp, couldnt be happier. Im switching gas stations to help prevent the problem again.

I have to call him today and find out what my base numbers were because i didnt get a print out for that.

Mods:
K&N typhoon intake
Plenum Spacer
Unorthodox Underdrive pulley set
Ebay Headers
APS True Dual 2.5" Exhaust
Osiris Tuner

Sorry for the crappy vid, it was taken on my Droid phone. I dont know how to embed vimeo videos here

My Dyno Video

Before 274 WHP / 250 TQ
After 285 WHP / 256 TQ
Before the tune i was running Osiris Base map so it was very lean. Tune made the car smoother and feel a lot faster mid range.

Wish i had the base dyno plot , i guess i could drive two hours to get it.



Im very happy with uprev and church, the launch control and extra osiris maps are awesome.

My Z is an 03, the engine is a fresh one from another 03 with less then 5k on it. My crank bearings went out on my original one with a greddy TT setup.

Place is called church automotive, here is there website.

right on playa. How much did this cost you? I'm in the market for a tune. I have all possible bolt ons on my rev-up motor. I've heard lots of good things about technosquare as well but

I figured as much but im just glad my detonation was taken care of. I could have gotten more power out of better gas but oh well.

Just found out my base numbers. 274 whp / 250 tq So 11 whp increase and smoother power band from the tune.

What have you done to the engine? 287whp? When I did my dyno on my 05 Z I did 233whp and 218 lbs/tq with a JWT intake. Unless you got some heavy mods I can not believe you made that much power.

Im right there with you Nexx... Perhaps it's the dual flux capacitors that was not originally mentioned explaining those numbers contributing to those gains...

Glad you are happy with the tune. The numbers are definitely inflated. Technosquare's superflow is a mean SOB as well. Highest I ran there was around 385 WHP at around 10 PSI.

it is inflated, but dypack's pretty accurate for keeping track of power gains.
I've gained about 20whp with a few mods

my bad. I checked the dyno and it was 284.3. so you've beat me.
I've had the HKS exhaust, Kinetix TP, plenum spacer, popcharger.. can't remember what else.. it's been ages since I've talked NA, lol. oh crank pulley.. which doesn't actually effect the hp gains.
