For all you know, the guy could be having a bad day and tells you to pop the hood anyways. At that point in time, you would politely bend over.

Thank you very much! I appreciate the response. Guess I'll just stand by and continue my education on this.

I totally understand where your coming from. I'm a rookie when it comes to mods as well. I'll be putting in the Stillen G3 intake soon. I think I'll hold off after that for now. The problem with trying to educate yourself reading these forums is all the different opinions provided. Trying to sort through whats BS and whats usefull can be difficult sometimes.

Believe it or not I'm having a problem locating a decent tuner shop to get a dyno. I live in Brooklyn, NY and all the places I know of are hacks! I'll get back to ya when I find something. A co-worker of mine recommended some shop in NJ, but I forget the name. All the SoCal people are lucky! They have all the cool tuner shops out their! Plus the nice weather!

Performance Motorsports East on LI. Hit them up they are listed in our dealer list on our website.

Good point Phim! Fortunately or unfortunately, My wife is into z's too (350Zs). So we have two z's to mod. Two money pits. She got her tune last year and I don't have a tune yet. But she did let me replace my AME wheels with some LE37 Volks.

Where's the ROI on wheels? Where's the ROI on new car purchases? If you're worried about ROI, drop the car hobby for hiking or something... you'll get some miles out of those $200 boots.

The headers and pulley are next, but it will not be a stillen pulley.
Please see my post in (intake and Exhaust.
base line 266 rwhp. toal power with mods 290.5 = 25 rwhp !!!!!!!
what a waste of money !!!!!
Can you post your A/F using the cobb when you dynoed the car and compare them with mine.
Thanks
GTM super charger coming soon. (390 rwhp with exsisting modifications).

only 4 rwhp with full exhaust? kinda strange, I ownder if you did the exhaust first before the intakes and dynoed it if the results would be the same? Then dynoed again with the intake to see if the intake would then only show 4 hp gain? Sometimes I think mods done seperately show better gains then when all mods done then dynoed. I guess there is a point of no return with mods.

x2 great guys at that shop

Their dyno reads high compared to others but that does not matter much if you use the dyno for what its worth. Just dont get excited when u put down 310+ with breather mods as if you go somewhere else itll prob be a little less.

5k ? no...

you're wrong.

a kit will be AT LEAST 10k with installation. thats excluding any upgrades that you need to do. And you will need a catback exhaust which will run you upwards of 1,500.

:iagree:

a total of more than $15K with all the necessary supporting mods and installation at this point.

perhaps, the price of TT and SC will go down in a year or two when there are more products and higher competition.

Please read again. He says he's paying 10 grand. Not 5. IIRC, he does his own work as well.
