The car made 334/277 back in February. With the cams, different intake, and a few other things, I just really thought we had to be getting close. I talked to Jon and Russ until they probably got tired of me, but it slowly began to seem more and more doable. Finally, I think it was 12/20, it hit the dyno, got the tune sorted out, and laid it down.

If you aren't above 320, I probably wouldn't post on this thread haha!

The rest of us cant hang yet- Great job though guys!

Mike, awesome numbers!

its why I don't really want to post mine !

Dyno are only a tuning tool , one read low the other read high ,, so its kind of useless

copy/paste from my signature ! Ver.1 once started at 256whp then died at 324whp.SAE 265 TQ
which is a gain of 68whp.

and for you guys on the Dynojet showing std # ,, well I got 330

mod list;
custom CAI/Maf tube
overzied TB (proved 7-9whp gain)
custom 350z HR intake manifold
PPE header
Custom X-pipe / muffler setup to reduce Decibel at the track (restriction means lower higher power.)
NST pulley kit
7AT (usualy read lower vs 6mt)

I wish I didn't blow that engine ! lol there is quite more to be gained.

yea i made that with only exhaust, intake, and a tune. no headers, no MAF mods, no TB mod, not intake manifold or spacer.

good job.

what was your baseline on that same dyno with very similar weather ?

they baselined it prior to tune and it was 309RWHP/250RWTQ

i never had it one the dyno prior to my tune.

True, but the Z1 dyno has seen many 370z's, so its also a good comparison tool. I don't remember what my baseline was honestly though, it was so long ago. However, since then, I believe Russell's car (owner of Z1) made came within 1 hp of mine but with slightly higher torque. I know before the headers I was 311 on their dyno.

mike are yours SAE (inflated) numbers?

i've gone through countless build threads and dyno threads but your numbers just seem "too" high. i've seen multiple people with many different brands of headers who are a lot lower HP than what you have listed.

i'm not trying to sound like i'm calling you a liar. i'm just curious as to how with very similar mods plus headers you are 20HP or so higher than me.

his 342 is STD number which are higher than SAE.

I will let Mike speak about about this but I will still add my small opinion on this.
that number of 342whp STD is plausible and when he shared his number with us, I did a research with others known high number on the forum (similar mods).

its all depend what component you have and the tuner.
I know when he got his 342.. Z1 had access to the Uprev beta for the VVEL adjustability , they did said they played with this . but gain were very limited.

also remember his Z is 6MT instead of 7At like yours, should have a few whp different right there.

the trick is to not have a too big exhaust like double 70mm as example from what I gathered.
Mike was smaller if I remember correctly.

I only posted mine because I think it's a miracle the car made what it did with O2 sensors that didn't work. Think about that for a moment. FYI, Car put down 309 SAE as well before a tune. Hence why I think there was a lot left on the table had the car been working 100%

Mods:
FI exhaust
Stillen Gen3
NST Pulley kit
UpRev tune

isnt dynapack one of the higher reading dynos? not trying to just interested since i cant remember exactly which ones read highest and lowest.

[Megan370z]

oh, I could say that im also in the 340+whp SAE # with this, right ?

if I didn't specify about the 4th gear ,, I could claim that 340+whp SAE.

well it depend,, during my dyno test day , I got 321whp SAE on the dynojet and 324whpSAE on the dynapack I use to go for tuning. this was the same day , within 2 hours from each other,,
so its really depend how the dyno was setup

[megalapagas]

Nice Numbers Fpenvy, I'm going with that same setup aswell besides the intake system I have k&n short rams though lol

nice! my only goal getting tuned was to hit 320rwhp. i was extremely surprised and pleased when i saw 324.
