Help! Need E-tune/remote tune support | 350z HR Stillen Supercharger

NissanTracker · 06-07-2018, 09:00 AM

I was originally getting tuned from Kaizens in the Boston, Ma area... but they have since closed. Brought my Z to a shop that was on UpRev's list... and just a horrible experience. Car doesn't rev past 2.1K rpms, Idles like garbage, and had to tow it have not even a mile of driving.

Since I can't find a reliable shop anywhere, I'm looking for an e-tune/remote tune. I have an 07 350z HR, Stillen Supercharger with UpRev. Mods below:

Stillen supercharger kit (default pulley)
Hi-intentions high flow cats
Motordyne TDX2 exhaust
Frozenboost a-w intercooler
Turbosmart dual bypass valve (vent to atmosphere)
modified intercooler pipe with MAFs close to the TBs
25 row themostat controlled oil cooler

On my first tune with this kit, everything was great, minus a p0300 that was showing up once in a while. Almost guaranteed to show up on a cold start. Bad experience happened when I changed the intercooler pipe to have the MAFs closer to the TBs and vent the BOV to atmosphere.

A little recent history:

Idle surge after Stillen supercharger install

Advice new style Stillen S.C. Intercooler pipe (MAFs at TB)

I would contact Sebastian @SpecialityZ

Seb at Specialty Z will get it right. It is an easy process if you can run a laptop for data logging.

Thanks. I just sent an email. Crossing my fingers. I'll probably need to pick up the UpRev logging cable... since I already have a license, i probably could just upgrade to the Pro edition.

Yes you will, basic interface cable for datalogging and flashing tunes is $225, tuner version that gives you access to the tuning side of the software is $475

Go with Seb, he is very good to deal with.

Also there is Eugene at Enthusiast Auto care, he is extremly responsive and helpful too, you can't go wrong with either.

I agree. Eugene is very responsive and caring of the people he helps.

Seb is good too since he's been doing it since the age of dinosaurs so he definitely has experience!

Unfortunately Eugene doesn't tune 350z since ECUtek doesn't support that, but if you have a 370 or g37, you can definitely take it to him!!

Eugene is still helping me even though I purchased SZ e-tune. That's how good he is!!
