just take it to get it re-installed and then tuned to get the most out of it.

I will be for sure. I just installed the UTEC to get it situated. I have a set of test pipes on the way and the UTEC Tuner WB on the shelf waiting to be installed. Just got a set of 650cc injectors too. I'll put al these items on once the test pipe show up. Our old Maxima bud Hal now works for Injected Performance as you may know. Hal has hooked me up on these parts and smoking deal a Greddy TT kit! My planned instal time for the TT is mid July! PARTY ON!

Wow. It's rare you find someone self tuning the UTEC. You have to buy some extra hardware to make inputs into the UTEC correct?

What sort of inputs? The tuner WB plugs right in and the UTEC it self logs every input you need. Just need a laptop with a USB port.

In the 350z community it seems to be a bit rare, it aint rocket science though, fairly easy if you take the right approach and do you research. Small tuning steps, err on the side of caution and take your time. It will take longer for me to self tune on the street then paying a shop to do it. Id much rather learn how it works though so I dont need to keep going back to a tuner to adjust things. I think a lot more 350z folks could self tune, but it seems that the blown motor hype is played up way too much. Besides, shop owners need to eat too Steak and Lobster
