How fast stock 370Z really is and how will BERK and K&N's affect on that!

Okay, I timed your runs myself. I can see the needle on gauge and I also know that immediately after shifting into 3rd a 7AT hits 60. I started the stopwatch numerous times the moment you launch the car and shortly after you shifted into 3rd. The result is consistently 5.2 to 5.3 seconds. A .6 disparity between your Racelogic and simply timing the tach and listening to the motor is unusual. I'd say the Racelogic isn't configured well or just not working right, imo.

My method may not be technological, but it seems more consistent.

As far as what you'll gain from mods. K&N filters won't gain you crap. They're just filters. An exhaust you'll feel, but no one can tell you what it'll do to these times - most people measure changes in dynos and 1/4 trackers. But the most important piece of the mod puzzle is the stock cats and an ECU tune which you'll feel the most.

Actually this is my second brand new unit, which I purchased in front on this new year from Vivid Racing, since my previous one fell off from my bike at high speed. It was still in working condition, but damaged from outside and I was doubting in the accuracy, so I purchased the another. Racelogic performance meters ($500 per unit) are very respected in this terms and I got no reason to suspect in this numbers.

I wouldn't say that filters don't do anything - lots of people have had a few horsepower gains with drop ins. Coupled with silicone post MAF tubes, they're just a few horsepower shy of an aftermarket CAI.
