LOL at the "secret VVEL tuning".

For reference, this is the Z1 370Z dyno graph from the beginning of September (before VVEL tuning was unlocked). NOTE: Our car has a Nismo exhaust, which is believed to be what made the major power difference on Mike's car. Due to Z Nationals, and other trackdays we have not had a chance to put the Z1 car back on the dyno for more testing, and to tune the VVEL.

We have a few modifications we have found through extensive testing, that gain additional power on the VQ37, aside from quality bolt-ons.

Thanks for sharing this piece of information. From eyeballing Mike's and your dyno there isn't much difference in the power delivery in regards to how it slopes and how far it extends. Mike's car seems to have a nice vertical bump of a few wtq everywhere, perhaps due to better scavenging from the exhaust manifold, which later translates into that slight edge in whp. Would it be possible for you to overlay the two graphs? Also, from a scale of 1-10 how far along do you think mike's tune is in regards to VVEL tuning?
