Sounds like you need a SAFC+ dyno tune. That will tell you exactly what HP your car is making.
hey chern... how much does a tranny project/build up like this cost? i was talking with jeff @ maximum tunning and he was saying like 3-4k but then i herd about him and left him alone.
dude ur not the only one i'm about to sell my car for this reason its like it doesn't hold power.... before my mods.... ssim ... spacers.... headers...complete exaust i was beating my home boy with the 4sp auto we had same mods just cat back and intake... now i got all the mods stated above and he's crushing me by 1 whole car wtf? does that make sense?

Our cars have a learning feature that you might have read about that basically tunes down your car to keep it as close to stock as it can. I highly recommend resetting your ECU at least every other week. I used to use a quick disconnect to do mine but have recently found that my OBD2 scanner allows me to reset all sensors to factory no matter if I have a DTC or not. This seems to do what disconnecting the battery does.
well i guess i'll try that.... and c what happens i left it disconnected for like 8 hrs but i'm tryin to wait a lil to get the utec bc like u said it goes back to stock settings i herd about this on the 350z forums
yea i got the safc with a street tune but gona gett the utec then a dyno tune just waiting to buy the utec and waiting for my o2sim's to come in

You can't just set the MAF sensor. You have to manipulate the item that reads the sensor. You could buy one of those speed/performance enhancing gimics off ebay "ie. resistor" and add it to the MAF. They say you will get 100hp for $29.99. You could just go to Radio Sack and get one for $2. I recommend getting a SAFC.

still waiting on IPT to email me the list. I did some looking on their site and if they provide the same for our transmission as they do the 4 speed, then we would be set. About $2000 in parts would include High Stall Converter, Rebuild Kit, ValveBody Rebuild, and a Modified Solenoid Assembly. I don't know we'll see. I will be calling again tomorrow morning.

my shop down here quote me for 2,300 for a full build which includes
a high stall convertor
Transgo shift kit/trann pack
06 selionds
I havent gone that route cause im still keeping my ears open for a 6MT, already have most of the parts for it. Just need the tranny and shift linkage

yea their customer service dept sux as you may have noticed. I think they probably didn't think I was serious so they blew me off. Someone else who has the time and patients should give it a shot. Sorry if it seems like I dropped the ball guys.

Hey man, only so much you can do... not a good move on their part though. I could see them making a killing, seeing as how many 6th Genners have tranny problems.
