you're hypothesizing and creating random bhp figures and expect a straight answer to a random through away figure...... i believe next month at the same dyno Steve's car will again make the same figure all things being equal, ie dyno setup, air temp, wheel alignment, no brake drag, wheels, tyres and tyre temperatures all the same of which have an effect on whp. YES Steve's car would make the same fugires in a months time. answer based on actual figures, not guess work. David

Here should be OK long as Steve don't mind....... Point 1 - No, tuning isn't mods by numbers every engine response differently to bolt ons. No gains, not event standard cars maintain its power forever so why would one with bolt ons..... an uprev doesn't mean you'll maintain gains forever either as natural engine wear and tear will always occur regardless. Point 2 - I've yet to see any evidence to confirm your thinking. My question is simple, on a reputable rolling road has any 350z DE with bolt ons ever produced more than 276bhp? *mods fitted weeks before dyno visit. David

In this thread or pm? Not looking to trash talk another thread, I'll make a name for myself....... David

My previous related posts have today again been confirmed to be correct.....Furthermore I have never seen a standard DE put down 290bhp+ on ANY rolling road.

That's the stooopidest thing I've ever heard. The plenum spacer allows the engine to breath better, the same as an enclosed intake, HFC or an exhaust system. A free flowing exhaust allows for more fresh air into the cylinders too, ie intake and exhaust both complement each other so to say the above statement is ridiculous. The ecu does not dial back gains shown from bolt on mods, all the ecu is trying to do is maintain the factory mapped AFR which is fine. For example high rpm 13.5 AFR with standard intake and exhaust denotes standard power all things being equal. The same AFR with bolt ons creates more power. tuner maps a standard 350z and logs the figures. Uploads the same map to a full bolt on zed, which would make more power? David

Very much doubt this particular rolling road is wrong by circa 20bhp, he wouldn't be in business for long if he's so far out on figures surely. 290bhp+ from breather mods on a DE is common place anyways tbf, on different dyno up and down the country. With a remap, peak power from what I gather generally see's gains of 10-15bhp on a healthy engine. Love this car David

Exactly pal

Well done mate, amazed me when folks say the 350z won't show any long term gains with breather mods without a remap lol Any pics on the dyno or videos David

So........ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/104995-just-had-dyno-run/

Remap?

Nice one, you must be pleased. go on what engine mods do you have?

I'll take the brake lines please David

ello n welkom this looks good!! http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201601130051760?sort=default&search-target=usedcars&price-to=9500&transmission=manual&body-type=coupe&make=nissan&postcode=B33%200XJ&model=350_z&price-from=7500&seller-type=trade_adverts&onesearchad=used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew&page=2&radius=1500&logcode=p david

an indy garage would charge about £120 for a P1 service.

WOW result!!!!

stoopid connectors and odd looking ribbon looms yes, but everything electrical still works on my 92' Sunny winter daily - bet many other manufactures of the same era cant boast the same ie your astras, rover 200's escorts and 309's..........

very clean!! what tyre sizes?

yes but i'm sure the sale went ahead on the premise there was no damage present...........

oh WOW

Late for work is all, standard

easy enough to do ive not long done one, where you based? david

not used my Zed in the last fortnight, second car deployed

i dont agree LOL

Battery failing I'd say
