Default After tune: Smokey's Dyno

Very professional place. Extremely impressed with the facility as well as the help. Everyone is extremely nice and willing to help out. I had my 2010 Nissan 370Z Nismo tuned there and have nothing but good things to say. The car feels much more responsive and I even picked up some extra power as well as better gas milage.

I have been to many places that do custom work on cars and none of them have impressed me the way this place did. They took such good care of my car I am blown away.

Baseline was 302whp final product was 325.1whp. Here are some pictures of the facility:








Here is my Nismo waiting to be pulled in:




Here is the car on the dyno waiting to be tuned:






Here is a video of it on the dyno:

All said and done I am glad I went here instead of the alternative (4.5 hour drive versus this one being 1.2 hour drive). I got the numbers I wanted to get and the experience was great. Would definitely return for future tunings/custom car work. Located in Akron, OH for any of you interested.

Really clean shop!

What mods do you have and how many miles were they on the car before you had the tune done?

I was on the fence about using these guys for a tune because I have never heard of them, but because you had such a great experience using them I think I will take my car there this spring

I dunno if I'm going to take my Z here or just go the same distance down to dynosty. I really wanna take it out to motion lab because those guys know their stuff but I can't justify the trailering and tuning expense + hotel etc to stay 8 hours from home.

Before and after would be great.

I only have an after dyno sheet. He wrote the base number down at the bottom of the after sheet.

How much did u pay if you don't mind asking and what kind of program they used to adjust the software? In near future I am putting some upgrades on my Z and will go for A/F adjustment too. Thank you.
