Chris, you know what your Z puts out....you've had it long enough to see different dyno's.
The last one we were at the guy blew your last shot of NOS before the Dyno....Lol !
I think it was at Corvette world on 35.
Stu was there also and I put down like 220 Whp
That was before the Uprev tune.

I went to 5 different dyno days with the Z. I set up 3 at HPP and everything went fine, until the 3rd time where they damaged my $2500 titanium exhaust. 
Then it was the Corvette place where the dyno couldn't read the hp/tq on my Z. Last time was at Cobb where the dyno operator forgot to turn off the VDC and sprayed a 100whp shot of nitrous causing a lean spike. That's after wasting my nitrous when I told him not to purge.
You can say that I haven't had much luck on the dyno.
Whatever you guys dyno, I'm probably slightly under those numbers thanks to the mileage/age/abuse. Poor Z.

Oh yes, that's right.... it was Cobb where that guy sprayed your last shot.
Corvette World was a different one.

I am tempted to come and pretty sure I will swing by. I doubt I will do a dyno even though last time I did one in his shop I was running 87 octane for a short while and put down 240whp/209tq. I am tempted to strap it down again and see what she puts down but don't feel like wasting $45 when the results will be the exact same. I expect AFR to clean up due to using 93octane but I can't see making any more power. Pretty much stock engine with z-tube, K&N filter and coupe midpipe. The combination of those three adds about .0069whp.

So I broke my cup holder the other day. Decided to turn my useless ashtray in to a cup holder.
Turned out pretty clean, I had to grind a little of the consol where the front and back of the cup fits. And I am looking for some leather that matches the shifter boot to finish off the filler pieces.
$2.00 cup holder that you can reach---priceless

Yes Scott, nicely done.
Mike, you should come and Dyno out there....maybe we could get some grub afterwards if enough peeps show up.
Q, come on out and put the new G37 on it.....I want to see what it can do.
JaE35z, I have a grill, but it is way too small for what you need.

might want to check a car stereo shop, like car toys or something.... they often have vinyl laying around for various speaker enclosures
