Looking forward to numbers!

Hahahaha...I may look at getting one of their stickers, but there is an actual mod that only Z1 does that gives about 10whp on typical 370z. Its a secret.

What's that? change the correction factor on the dyno? lol jkjk

Well....looks like I am not getting momentum headers anymore..but, Z1 has more tricks to get more power from NA Z34. Their Shop car is close to 350whp with a single exhaust. I will be doing the waiting game.....

Personally getting a little tired of hearing this about the "Secret" stuff that Z1 is doing to get even more out of an NA motor.

Here's a thought: Just tell us what the secret stuff is. I completely understand if it's just the way they're tuning them (ie timing, fuel maps, etc) that they won't share the specifics but then just tell us it's in the tuning. Otherwise just tell us what it is. If it's a certain combination of parts then just tell us. There are those of us that would be lined up to get that magic combination of parts to make the extra power. Also knowing that they have the ability tune VVEL is that where the power is coming from.

/end rant

I almost know exactly what it is but not positive. It's not parts. It's the rerouting of certain things with tune. You just pay for labor. So course there not going to say anything at all. There shop came up with it. It's there thing. Not to say they don't know a little thing or too in the VVEL department. It all adds up. I'm not going say anything else about it for certain reasons.

Thanks. This is all I really wanted to know. I understand the whole "intellectual property" so I can understand Z1 won't tell us what there doing exactly. Just sucks for those of us that don't live anywhere near Z1. Maybe they should sell instructions on how to do this "magic" for those of us that can't justify taking our Z's that far away.

I'll just leave this here for as long as I can. :tup:

So what's the secret???? Is it in the tune? Parts?

I'm going crazy here.... Someone anyone????

:-/............

"rerouting"

Z1 doesn't want to give it out, which is totally understandable. You could just go get a tune from them and find out.

That's great but not all of us live anywhere near Z1.

DarkJak 05-27-2013 12:47 PM

Wonka does. Chattanooga is right next to the Georgia boundary.
I'm pretty curious too. I think it's possible some other tuners have discovered the same method. I haven't heard about it till now, so it could be a trade secret. Hopefully.

N0SL3N 05-27-2013 01:12 PM

I'd be willing to pay $$ if this secret actually works and can be done yourself. Hell, I'd even sign a NDA so that I cannot tell other people.

Listed on there site now.

chrischhorn 05-27-2013 02:33 PM

BAM! I win. Still made for the DE motor. You HAVE to purchase a set test pipes or cats from them to bolt to the 370z.

diddy535 05-27-2013 03:11 PM

That sucks I thought they were fixing it to bolt direct.
