Default Tuning an Evil Z from the Great White North

Our tuning reputation will at times draw customers from a few states away. New York, Connecticut, Ohio, Virginia, etc. After all, a solid and dependable tune is the key to any build and is worth driving for!

Within the past month we have had 3 customers tackle the border crossing and the many miles between our northern neighbor Canada and our front door here in Lansdale Pennsylvania in the search for a tune that they could count on and we were happy to meet their expectations. One such customer was Pat C. and his downright evil looking flat black Nissan 370Z.



With a flat black wrap job by Pat himself and a Stillen supercharger bolted onto the VQ37 this is one 370Z that has plenty of power to back up that stealth fighter like exterior.




Pat brought the car down to us for one of our incredibly popular Uprev Osiris tunes. Pat built a solid 400+ wheel horsepower car but needed a good tune to really bring out the potential of his build and make it livable on a daily basis.




The results speak for themselves! Just shy of 440 wheel horsepower on pump gas and a tune you can rely on everyday!




With over 430 wheel horsepower, incredible looks, a silky smooth exhaust note, and stock like cruising and idle this Z checks every box that Pat was looking for.

Huge thanks to Pat for making the trek to R/T Tuning and for providing some great pictures of his car.

I can get that info for you guys.

I agree with Vince. This wrap job was awesome! I didn't see a single flaw in it. He did say he had some experience with laying down vinyl but this was his first car wrap job.

Keep in mind this was one of the base maps that Stillen was having issues with. We were able to get him a lot more power but more importantly we made it much smoother in cruising conditions too.

While we are normally able to make great gains with an Uprev tune we were starting with a pretty poor base tune that came with the kit.

No crap, looks like the base tune switched to hi-det map around 4krpm. You should sell this re-tune back to stillen LOL.
