Seth moved on to a new job where he is actually helping Disabled Veterans so while we are sad to see him go, we applaud his choice to give back to those who put so much on the line for the country and our families.

We are the North American Distributor for TMC Motorsport which is located in the UK. The tunes are all written by them. If you go to their website and do a search on the 370Z you will see all that's offered is the Auto Flash.

In this case the stock file was pulled from my local customer's car and a tuned file was written and sent back to us from TMC. We did a bench flash and put it on the dyno to see what kind of gains we got.

Let me clear up why we run in 3rd gear. In all reality, a dyno is a tuning tool. 10 different dynos on 10 different days will read 10 different numbers. We certainly understand folks using them to compare the power of their cars to others, however the primary use of a dyno is to confirm the delta. The gains. That's all we use ours for. We choose to dyno in 3rd gear for safety reasons. Every car that runs on our rollers is in 3rd. In many of the European cars, you have to be in 6th or 7th gear to be at a 1:1 ratio. The last thing we want is to have a car on our dyno doing 170+ MPH when all we really need to do is a quick 3rd gear pull to confirm the baseline and then the gains.

With that said, there are three things on the dyno sheet on our website that should be examined. The gain of 14whp, the gain of 9wtq, and the improvement in the overall power band while using the terrible 91 octane found here in AZ.
