Maybe, with his setup plus a tune it will give everyone a solid idea of the limits of this car (NA that is) hopefully.

Semtex's 370Z is definately a freak of nature. It's already well over 300whp without tuning, so interesting to see how she's doing now. It's been several months since the car was on our dyno.

Well over, indeed. 330whp! I look at his mods and compare to, say, RCZ, the only real difference I see is the pulley mod...and he's making another 20whp...o wait...different dyno.....nvm. Both cars have sick numbers.

nice! can't wait to get mine done now. not to make this another cobb vs uprev war, but which one do u prefer?

15hp on a reflashed ECU is solid. That's about what I have on my Hondata reflash. What's the torque increase at? The curve is looking great already.

The real question is the price. I paid ~$500 for my reflash, to unlock an ECU for dynamic tuning you are looking at $1000+.

Good work! I will definitely get intakes and probably the hi-flow cats too

Freak of nature? I've been called worse. Oh wait, you mean my car. Never mind.

Solid gains, I'm going to see if the guys from HP Logic are up for doing an NA tune on my car too. Im interested to see the results.

sub'd for semtex results!! i went to uprev in austin the day after zcon finished with russell from Z1 motorsports. those guys really know their stuff, i was very impressed. they even let me do a 2* timing bump on my truck for free and it didn't necessarily add power but the engine runs a lot smoother and doesn't knock constantly at idle

Zsteve · 10-27-2009, 05:21 PM

So 284 with all the mods to include the stillen intake and HFC and then another 15rwhp from just the tune correct?
