Uprev Tuned Rev Up 350z
 
1 Attachment(s)
Just got back from tuning my Z at Fever Racing in Tampa, Fl and Martin did a great job at tuning it! Current mods were Mrev2, JWT pop charger, intense power test pipes, Borla TD, UR pulley. I kinda expected higher numbers since my car was at 261 before test pipes and the pulley but it's cool, it was 91 degrees outside.

I've been looking for a place to tune in tampa. PM me price? Also - it'd be cool to meet a fellow Z guy in the area if you ever want to cruise to meets with me or anything.

Turbo toys out by on Lois and Clark only knows about 350z and g35. Check them out, it's in drew park by the hcc dale mabry campus

zswickliffe 05-27-2013 07:46 PM

I've heard about them. My buddy that used to drift nissans know's the guy that runs the place. I'll have to check them out as well.

You do know that you get slightly less power when the weather is warm/hot as the air is less dense, even if they were blowing a fan whilst doing your tune all its doing is blowing hot air. Thats why when you go nfor a bit of a blast really early in the morning your engine runs more crisply as the air is cooler and more dense.

That actually looks really rich... who tunes 12:1 for an NA tune? I guarantee you there's more power in there

he said he sees more gains when he adds more fuel compensation, just the way he tunes

seymore4 05-30-2013 04:58 PM

I don't believe that

I have to believe that the tuner left something on the table, judging purely from the AF. AFR's in such low 12's seem very rich to me, and I too, would bet that you'd get some power back from bumping it up closer to 13.0. I don't have much experience with Z's, but you'll see some engines continue to make power in the 13.25+ AFR range.

You should be OK as long as the car starts, idles, and drives to your liking. WOT fuel is a relatively small part of a tune.

I think a lot of the higher HP revups that aren't FI are running 12.4-12.8 for the AFR. I remember reading that these engines seem to be happy with a little more fuel.

How about VSR in tampa (formally S&R)? They specialize in Z's and are UpRev cert.

You're thinking of the HR/VHR, not the revup... Even then there's a big difference between 12.4 and 12.8... The OP is running at the leanest 12.2.. DE's are great right in the 12.9-13.1 range

that's exactly what Martin told me, he has tuned so many Z's that he figured this is the best way

Let's just say I follow them on facebook and I'm not pleased with some of the professionalism there. Pictures of feet on the headrests of a porsche... Coffee cup on an engine block being worked on... Etc. And they just think it's funny.

I have also heard mixed things from other really reputable tuners.

Damn this is depressing. I too have a 06 rev up. Getting tuned soon (uprev) with a KNdrop in, mrev 2, plenum spacer berk test pipes and true dual exhaust. Was really really hoping i could hit 300whp but i dont think i can anymore

its just a number. As long as you see an improvement what's the big deal? my 06 G35 coupe put down 266 DJ with those exact same mods.. Difference in driveability was noticeable tho
