Kansas City

So an S&R Performance single turbo kit can be had for less than $6K (tuner kit). That being said, would anyone trust Modified by KC to tune an UpRev? If

Well I haven't talked with them for about a month and still have yet to hear if they ever got the Uprev tuner. That being said the only place to get an Uprev tune is outside of STL...about 3 1/2hrs away.

Chad does do good work. I had him fix my exhaust leaks and he did it cheap. Plus if you take this to him I'm sure he will work on it for you.

Also seen a Blue 370z over off of Plumff(sp) today and seen a black 370 running down I635 on the Kansas side.

The Blue Z was parked back by the office building off plumff(sp)....that's the most I've seen in one day except when we meet up.

modified is now a licensed uprev tuner. So they have access to all maps and tech support. Chad did the dyno tune on my 370 and i ended up with more hp and muuuuch better throttle response. I wouldn't even hesitate to have him do my tuning when i go fi. He's done a couple tt 350z's.

Yes I did....I haven't talked to them for a minute. I need to since it is saying they are on the list. Now to get him to fix my tune....mainly so it'll stop with the mini-explosion inside the pipes due to the fact it's running to fat.

That I don't know but when that excess fuel pops inside the pipes it can get a little nerve racking.

Oh and I'm leaning toward trading in the car and getting a manual Z. I may just trade it in as is. Of course removing the test pipes because they are illegal as f*ck. Still up in the air on it.....maybe then go with a proven turbo system like GTM's.
