Try and get it on a dynojet, and get the run files so we can see them as well. post SAE #'s.
And listen to SR20DEN ...
We 02/3 guys would love the UTEC but we are not as easily compatible as you guys are.

Thanks

the ECU made it in, but I missed FED EX and they need my signature, so I will pick it up tomorrow..
I think I wanna run the test as stock, and then the ecu + intake... if so I will do the dyno next week hopefully, cause I will have to purchase the intake first..

hopefully the dyno can explain more...

Probably because those ecu programmers are for GM or some other domestic. Nissan uses an odd code. So while OBDII and CAN for 2008 must have common diagnostics language, the code for the engine parameters itself is unique to Nissan/Infiniti. As far as I know anyway

Coming from the stang world it is so easy to work with the computer and relatively inexpensive for the gains that are to be had.

These aren't poorly factory tuned EEC-IVs running 10º of ignition timing.
And no one here is going to get +10whp out of these anyway without having their car tuned specifically by TS. I would recommend that everyone just buy the L-Spec version from TS with the extended rev limiter and DBW corrections, then tune their own A/F via a piggyback fuel computer.

chances are we may see more then 10, and i'm not even saying this because I hope we do...but the Z has already squeezes alot more of the potential outa the vq35 then we do....the 05 had 22 more hp then us and 19 lb of torque off the bat...so hopefully this chip will give us a little more then we expect. (hopefully)
either way cant wait.
either way cant wait.

Power aside, I would hope that the ECU modification also includes things like firmer shifts, higher rpm shifts (or the ability to hold slightly more rpm in manual mode) and may also include shutting of the downstream O2 sensor (not sure if you get a CEL with a Y pipe or not).
