I know you mentioned about the slight knock and how it went away when you fueled with 101 octane and it mixed with the 91 octane and it went away. There fore after that you said you try to fill with 93. After you filled with 93 did you notice if the knock went away or was it still present?

Also I was wondering if you plan on bringing it to stillens attention about the starting issue(if we really want to call it that) to see if they can adjust your fuel trim for starting? Like I said this is a easy fix and I think you should notify them of it and get it corrected. Just for the sake of being, after that it will be perfect. Please keep us informed.

okay, i've got an update! i just received the tune # R8 on Monday. car is running just like before but a lot less detonation on low end. my hot starting is fixed so as the unstable idling. power feels the same just like before up to redline. just like the OP i don't care what it say's on the dyno, as long as it drives good and minimal problems i'll be happy. with this tune i can actually control my detonation by giving more throttle on 1st gear or reverse. by far this tune works best for me and can probably get better later on when Stillen and Uprev work out something new. most important is it drives just like stock but a lot faster and i'm pretty happy as it is now!

idk why the 370z is getting 375whp but i'm making 411whp and my car(G37) is a tad heavier than the Z. realistically i'm gaining over 100whp. now that's pretty good imo. here's the proof and i believe many of you had already seen it but i'll post it again anyway.
