The AF ratio was pretty much already good so Kito had to do some magic to get any gains…..but I like the results :tup:

Ahh I see. I initially thought you were fully bolted on, but it looks like just test pipes eh? A 21whp gain's pretty impressive! I'm more interested in getting rid of the throttle flap limitations. At WOT - our cars open the flats to roughly ~60%. It's never 100%, IIRC. Anyways, my car doesn't seem to take advantage of the 4.083 FD ring and pinion gears I have. Hoping UpRev helps with that...!!!

I was told that it was best to change ALL fluids prior to actually tuning (the day before). I'm going to assume that you didn't? By the way, Redline got busted a while back for essentially...promoting more than their fluids could do. Just an FYI for you. On the contrary, I have a bottle of Redline 5W30 fluid sitting in my garage. You want? lol

Hmmm interesting on the Redline bust……I've been running it for about 16 months and have ~43k miles and 12 track sessions on my DD 370Z. I guess changing often helps out.

Dude I'm pissed, not going to be able to make it.

Bad news/good news

I can't make Saturday.

That's the only time I have to prep my car for a special private lapping session at Pacific Raceways (not the go-cart track) on Tuesday.
