UPDATE 1/29/2008
Went to my first dyno tuning session, man the Split Second FTC can be a real b!tch to program. Had the first tuning session at Ptuning in Manassass Virginia, Toan really knows his stuff and is doing a great job so far. Preliminary numbers after 5 hours and up to 7lbs of boost and 39 pulls later were 312.6Whp and 306.8 FTLBs of TQ

Est 370 crank HP (about 115hp over stock) (5AT)

The car is being tuned on a Dyno Dynamics Dynamometer machine which has also been called a heart breaker because it normally list Dyno pulls about 10-15% below a Dynojet. Toan estimates on a Dynojet the car would be sitting on about 345+whp with 6-7 PSI

Have to remove my IM and drop in some 350Z HKS cold plugs (got them at Ptuning, then take it back next month for the 7-8psi tune and play with the timing...

So it's a start that I'm extremely happy with and the 2-1/2 hr drive home was awesome...



As stated in my prior post, painted the Intercooler semi-flat black for the tie in up front...

I think.............that black just pulled the car together. Looks like a totally different car to me for some reason. Besides it being a fuken turbo, now IMO it looks sexay.

looks great!

on a sidenote...have you ever considered a black painted billet grill? I think that might flow with the intercooler lines...just a thought.

UPDATE 1/29/2008

Went to my first dyno tuning session, man the Split Second FTC can be a real b!tch to program. Had the first tuning session at Ptuning in Manassass Virginia, Toan really knows his stuff and is doing a great job so far. Preliminary numbers after 5 hours and up to 7lbs of boost and 39 pulls later were 312.6Whp and 306.8 FTLBs of TQ

Est 370 crank HP (about 115hp over stock) (5AT)

The car is being tuned on a Dyno Dynamics Dynamometer machine which has also been called a heart breaker because it normally list Dyno pulls about 10-15% below a Dynojet. Toan estimates on a Dynojet the car would be sitting on about 345+whp with 6-7 PSI

Have to remove my IM and drop in some Japanese 350Z NGK cold plugs (LFR6A-11, got them at Ptuning), then take it back next month for the 7-8psi tune and play with the timing...

So it's a start that I'm extremely happy with and the 2-1/2 hr drive home was awesome...
Pictures...







Oh and one of the employees at PTuning has a Beautiful 5.5 Gen with only 20K miles, unfortunitely he had the car at the shop for repairs because someone broke into it in Alexandria VA and gutted his new dash electronic's, sorry didn't have the heart for the inside shot but if you look closely at the passenger door window frame, you can see the metal pulled back from the big a$$ screwdriver someone used...





Beautiful Max non the less...

The B!tch made it through the day with a 2-1/2 hr drive up 39 pulls and screamed on the way back, so far the Max gods are looking over me...
