Red was 4th gear, blue is 5th. Forgot to mention that, my bad.

As suspected, the map sensor seems to read boost a little high, when running a vacuum line to the dyno it reads 10 to 11psi. Pretty happy with these numbers, right...

I definitely over exaggerated Seb being frustrated, it's more of a joke as to how much effort has gone into trying to get the timing to make sense. Really I'm not sure what's going on with the car...

Honestly I still have the same problem as you too. I can tell Sebastian almost seems a little frustrated, we've had to go down in timing from the base map to prevent ignition correction (usually it's...

Welcome to my world, now you understand? :icon17:. Out of curiosity how consistent is your boost over different WOT pulls? I have about a 1psi variance, I've seen as "low" as 11.8 to 12psi and as...

I tightened it about one full turn of the bolt, I marked it before starting. The belt doesn't "seem" any tighter but I didn't want to overtighten it. I did one pull and the boost peaked at 7,000 rpms...

I made a quick video showing the current belt tension. I have a friend who has a vortech 350z and he said my belt is already much tighter than his is. I haven't tightened the belt yet. Curious to see...

There's definitely belt dust around on the backside. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought centrifugal superchargers built boost linearly to RPM unless there's a restriction. I suppose that filter...

I think the drop in boost at high rpms is from the supercharger side belt slipping. I ran my hand under under the belts and on serpentine side it's clean, but once I touch that supercharger side belt...

I was planning on doing the dyno next week, the local shop has an opening, however I did a small 4th gear pull and it feels like my poor stock clutch is already trying to slip. I need to take care of...

The one on the right is the dipstick, the one on the left is the vent plug.

I don't have an EGT probe, so I don't know. I have a very hard time believing this could be exhaust flow related, as I'm sure there's others with more restrictive exhausts that don't have similar...

Really hard to tell with it still on the car but it appears to be the same size as the one on the supercharger, definitely larger than 3". I really doubt there's a restriction in my exhaust, but who...

I measured a couple of the pulleys that I could, the others I can't do while they're still on the car, at least not with a tape measure. Also sorry for not knowing the exact names of the pulleys, I'm...

I don't know the exact details, what I got is what went on, there was no extra parts to get mixed up with, so Aaron would know better about what's on it. In fact, the three pulleys and belt on the...

I believe it starts at 2.5" and gradually increases to 3" or something like that, it's literally the stock motordyne shockwave exhaust for the 370z...

It's a full motordyne exhaust, including ART pipes, so no catalytic converters. I know it's not the absolute best free flowing exhaust but it should flow very well, significantly better than OEM. The...

I am just relaying the information I was told. I think it's pretty safe to say Sebastian with his knowledge and experience is probably the undisputed best tuner for this platform, I trust his advice....

I may be the first person in history to ask this question, but: how would I go about lowering the boost? I imagine swapping out one of the pulleys, which one though and where would I get one? The car...

Just placed my order, Aaron was super helpful in answering all my dumb questions, and I'm sure there will be more when it comes time to install. Glad to be joining the boosted club.
