Does UTEC work with the 35th ann edition? Expect anywhere between 10-30 peak whp depending on ur setup and up to 30 torque increase. I had a 20 whp increase and 10-20 torque increase midrange. I was just a test car.

You made 20 whp and 20 trq with a UTEC added?? Is that just with the mods listed in your sig? Also do you have a REVUP?

Is that a typical increase or was your tuner extremely skilled? Thanks.

YeaH but if you actually bought the UTEC from us, it would have been $1299 installed and tuned N/A. If you source the utec from elsewhere Im hitting you over the head for the tune.Why would I discount my tunning for someone who does not buy product from us? Also if there is a problem with the unit, where do you go from there?
And FYI, you most likely will not be recieving your UTEC this week as there is a national back order and some units were recalled for testing...And FWIW were not really that exppensive for tunning compared to other shops that actually have a clue what their doing on the Z in NJ, if there are any besides us..

i jus called Factory Tuning and they jus shipped out my utec and he sed i should get it in 2 day or so. hmm... This utec he sold me prolly werent the new ones that didnt need a recall for testing. I also asked him what i should do if the utec he sent me was defected and he said, "Jus send it back and we will gladly replace is wit Turbo Xs Warranty."

Most likely, ill get my tune from u MRC...

Good luck with the Utec Jhayrcruz.

MRC-He paid the normal market price that pretty much every vendor sells them for on this and other 350Z/G35 forums.
