just noticed my CF is SAE so thats supposed to mean that it's accounting for differences in temp, etc.....

I've no choice now but to stop caring because I'm certainly not having stuff removed.

as much as they say SAE accounts for things like that.. it doesn't really.

You can go back to the same dyno shop 3 days in a row and see variances in your numbers.

I've seen my stock numbers at 279, go to 292 with an exhaust go down to 280 with same exhaust go down to 260 (bad gas that time) etc. No mod changes.

If you truly want to always see changes, before they did the install, they should have done a dyno on that day, done the install and then try another dyno. Even then there will be slight variances (not sure where you are but the temps in GA can start out at like 65 in up till like 9 am and then skyrocket to around 92+ by 1-2pm)

you know I'm just getting more pissed by the moment because I think the tuner maybe should have spent a minute with me explaining some of this but what I got was "321, lost some torque" and that was it.

and the damn dyno sheet I got isn't the same format as the original so I can't even compare it properly.

this is the first time I can say that I'm not too pleased with AAM considering they've done alot of work on my car but this time I am mainly because they didn't take the time to explain the difference.

the car does run great, no complaints there, regardless of the dyno I'm happy with the work and the driving result. What I'm not happy about is I got less than 1 minute with the tuner and I thought that was supposed to be a bit of a two way conversation or at least something other than how it went.

I'm looking somewhere else for my BBK purchase and install.

Came here to say this.

Dyno again in December or January, until then, try not to hate life.

(I am in a similar boat, I put 2 grand worth of performance parts on the car and "lost" 20 HP. It's due to the tune needing an update and being balls hot, but it still bothers me, so I feel ya.)

Has anyone heard anything at all in regards to updates on the header with the HR flange?

Same here; I was bummed about my numbers until I looked at the sheets. It made power, just not peak. I'm fine w/ that; I'm dynoing again anyways :D

@Eighties Meta, what format is it in?

A few weeks or so.

It's supposed to be back from the welder soon and on to a test car... I don't understand why to be honest... ANY welder should be able to do it easily

Just out of curiosity,

What would YOU pay for a set of BRAND NEW, authentic Momentum Headers?

More than the Z1s? Less?

If you'd pay MORE, and you want to buy a set, PM me ASAP, offer will be on the table for only a few hours

I'm done. All this money for a car that is barely faster than a bone stock 370z. what a dumbass I am. Soon as the rattle is fixed, whether it's from the install or something else I'm trading it on something else that is turbo from the factory, an STI, a bmw 335i something along those lines. done with these cars.

you going to part out your quaife when you get something else?

I feel ya. Your not the only one.

But have you thought of boosting your z?

The chase for hp is an endless one and you will always want more. I realized that the car was fats enough for me to get into trouble already and i have never been in a situation where I thought to myself "I need more power right now'. Every time I think about turbo or whatever, I always remind myself of this. Having all that power is great, but how often will I get to use it. I'm more concerned with just making the car fun for me with mods like the 4.08 gears. Who knows, maybe some day my mind will change and I will have a second car and enough extra cash lying around to say f*k it, let's turbo or get a new stingray (or Z if it's a turbo 6 from the factory and is lighter but I doubt it). Until then, the car is plenty fast and fun now and I am happy with it. People who want huge hp gains either need to boost or should have gotten a different car to begin with.

I'd be interested in selling my quaife if the price was right

I don't NEED a quaife but if a disgruntled Z owner was going to get rid of ti at the right price, I might be interested and eighties meta seems pretty disgruntled...

I will be trading it and just eating it. I didnt want massive power. I wanted it to be right at 400 bhp or rougly 335-340 whp. No part out. The quaife was the best mod, spend the money, that is worth it.
