Topgunz - air to air upgrade

milkcow500

Yeah there's no 100% way of what happened unfortunately. Here's how it went down.

1. Installed FMIC brackets upside-down.
2. Shop decided to cut/weld an extension on the bottom of the Y-pipe to get it to fit.
3. Informed the shop that the FMIC brackets are upside-down.
4. Shop flipped ONLY the passenger side bracket - Not sure if they really did anything (Doesn't really matter at this point because the Y-pipe was altered).
5. One pipe now won't align with the throttle body.
6. Welded an extension on that pipe in order to fit.

My shop works on a LOT of 370z's and they told me that the G37 has less room in the front. Not sure if this is true, but we won't really know until the next guy tries. I went to the shop and took a look at the front and I really don't see a crazy difference, then again I'm no expert. I honestly feel like it will fit with either much less fabrication or without any at all.

I intend on going E85 next month. I highly suggest it as it makes a world of difference in terms of power.

Hey Topz.... Are your kits in yet? I'm just waiting on EVOHUNTERS results as I am on the stock Stillen Pump and Injectors with a 9lb pulley...If the Stillen fuel set up won't work I will have to factor upgrading the fuel system which isn't a big priority for me since on Guam they only sale 91 at the pump. I have no access to E85 and honestly dont think that will ever be an option here. I have a tune for race fuel but I only pour that into the tank when I'm gonna hit the track.....other than that she's always drinking 91.

If you running the stock pulley setup on your blower youll be fine.

Im a running a 2.75 on blower instead of 3.20", We arnt even sure what kind of boost we will see with it yet.

I'm on the 9lb Pulley. ...Stillen asked me to run this as I was only hitting 7.0-7.5 psi on their stock pulley....they were thinking that it was due to either my TP'S ( their theory if back pressure with the stock cats) or my climate/location.....With the 9lb pulley I'm hitting a max of 8.3psi @7300rpm. I know that when StillenZ34 started his tuning session he was running lean due to the increase of air from the A2A set up but he has an upgraded fuel system. ...I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Stillen supplied pump and Injectors that originally came with the kit will be suffice for now...especially considering my limitations of fuel grades here.

If you do a Google search you will find that there are a few of them:
Ethanol stations near NYC:
I've been checking some of them out.
The one in Spring Valley is pretty good - all the street racers go there.
The [Power Gas] one in East Orange charges $4.99 a gallon...
There are others. I did this search based on my home location in Northern NJ

I'll mostly be using 93 honestly. I'm out in Jersey and Long Island a lot, so there's plenty E85 there.

Update: I'm currently running logs for Sebastian, so he can road tune me today. I didn't really want to, but I've driven the car like a baby for 50 miles or so on the base tune he gave me. Nowhere near being able to go WOT, but I'm getting anxious.
