Is there a dyno here in the valley where you can at least check a/f ratios? I would be interested to see a dyno pull on 50/75 shot to see how things look.

Maybe we can take a group drive to Austin and get our nitrous tunes the same time. I'm excited to see how it turns out... Been tossing around the idea for some time now.
There is one in Mcallen I think. I'm not too sure where. I think there is one in brownsville too.

Just that mine has to be custom due to my sound system....
Nice dude! I want to see you run it the first time you go out. I'm pretty sure they will too. Glad they're taking good care of you.

Checked up on the car today, they're finishing up the build... It's looking really good, definitely surpassed my expectations. Good solid quality work. We're just waiting on one final piece to get in.....

Is your kit going to have a wide open throttle switch that activates at a certain rpm?

I'm thinking a WOT switch that activates at 4k rpm would be ideal... Hmm. This is interesting.
Well, I spoke with my installer, and with Cold Fusion directly, AND, with Zex, and even ZeX said that their kit and the kit's ratio moniter isn't for the 370z(even though some have done so), and the components aren't necessarily adding useful safety. They are more of a "placebo for peace of mind" as Cold Fusion put it, and even Zex hinted at that. I ended up going with Cold Fusion because of pricing.... Both are doing the same thing.... But Cold Fusion has more adjustability as far as shots go, and upgrades....

And as far as having a module to activate at a certain rmp, is not necessary... My nitrous will shoot at full throttle, so the rpms will be pretty high. And the instant I back of(even 1cm) the nitrous will stop shooting. I also have a secondary cut off switch on that panel.
