Default Reflash, get UTEC, Emanage Ultimate? Or something else...

I need to get my tunnnnnnne too, my car is not taking the advantage of my mods, intake, headers and test pip, exhaust, spacer, pulestar spark plugs.

which item or method do you like the most? reflash, greddy emanage ultimate, or blue? utec? (i know have you have utec, shouldn't ask that)

and i will add LSD, 3.9 final gear, stage 2 clutch and lite flywheel, then I will stop and wait...

Which of the ecu tuning is the best choice for me? I don't know have much of tuning stuff. I just drive my Z to drift, but don't know much of the tuning. and I am still learning how to set up my car by drivin and read fourm. I hope you help me here.

Well if your planing on staying NA a Utec isn't a bad way to go, even though you could get so much more out of it if you went FI. I have a Utec in my Z and it has done just fine. The install was about 30 mins. Has a really sensitive knock sensor lol

By the way, my z is NA as well, I have a stillen *full* exhaust. Headers, race pipes, and true dual. As well as some other goodies.

I also happen to have a brand new Utec for sale *nib*

That is an answer best determined by your end performance goals and your budget.

I am looking for around 350-400hp, or around 300 tq, budget is around 7-800...

I know I can get the UTEC or Emanage Ultimate, but just don't know which one is a better one for NA tuning.

And recently watched a best motoring about the 350z NA tuning, CPU is also doing a great job about tuning a NA machine.

you can get to 400rwhp on an NA motor if you're fully built with high compression pistons, equal length headers, cams, new plenum, and well thought out intake system.

for simple bolt ons, no UTEC, or Emanage, or even Reflash will get you to those numbers.

which engine do you have? VQ35DE? HR? Rev up?

I have a VQ35DE non-Rev up. hmm, those are the big project, lol I will keep that in mind. For now i have already installed the headers and test pips, and the "Service Engine Soon" light is on, and I have read some article about the if people have change the exhaust system is better to get it tune, so that can brings out the full protential of the car.

Here is the artical's link,

350-400hp at the wheels or crank will cost more than 7 or 800 dollars

If you don't have an experience, take it to local tuner.

He can make sure you get the right equipment for your car.

It's possible to tune your car yourself, as long as you are willing to put the time in to learn about tuning and have the right equipment. We have a number of customers that use our Osiris Tuner and aren't professional tuners that are doing very well on their own, they've taken the time to learn though and most people are far too impatient to do that. Thats where a Pro Tuner comes in handy, having someone with the expertise to do the job right and in a short amount of time.
