Exactly. That's why I'm posing the question here. What does that blip look like to you?

Double Down Motorsports will be back to back dyno testing our 370Z HFC's later this week. We'll get some real answers from DDM pretty soon.

SWEEEET!!!!!!

Before i was set on the 370Z i was going to get a G37 sedan, and the Berk HFC's would have been my first mod.

Assuming everything goes well at the Dyno, when do you expect the 370Z HFC's will be ready to order?

I'm going to say that it might be knock or an oversensitive knock sensor....but who knows...could be many things including very slight loss of traction on the dyno or the "driver" adjusting his right foot. I do have to say it looks an awful lot like timing is being pulled...
