Yeah, all that polishing had to accomplish something, right? I mean otherwise I wasted my money. I wasn't knocking your results though, just trying to give some encouragement - they are good numbers. As for compression, I run stock compression with a lighter set of rods and machined down crank - not that it really matters, but the car runs SO good - I know how you feel.

na i didn't get the impression you were knockin the numbers, it's all good =). you're numbers are actually encuraging. it gives me some direction to what to do next to get more power.
 
Sweet Dyno! I hope to get around the same amount on my setup. Though I have the H-beam stock rod length and CP Pistons .20 over. I am shooting for the 280whp mark on 15 PSI. If I can do that then i'll be happy. What cams are you running and also what are you using to tune?

thanks... stock cams and i'm using the microtech ems. i'm sure you can hit 280whp. i'm sure i could've too w/ bit more of an aggressive tune, but w/o an egt and knock sensor we didn't want to take any chances.

good luck and don't forget to post when you do dyno.
 
i have rods sitting around just need to get the rest of it. one project at a time lol

that would be awesome. might even be closer now since im in ohio.

do you plan on coming to the carlise show in may? i know there are a lot of members on the forum coming, but it's quite of a bit further drive for you coming from ohio.

yea actually ken asked me. if im off ill go. i have to see.
 
so this dyno was taken w/ a cracked turbo manifold, possibly dp too, the injen cai w/ the 2" reducer for the stock turbo, stock maf, plugs gapped at .028, and a dirty filter that wasn't cleaned for 40k miles....

since then i got the mani and dp tig welded, cut off the 2.25 in reducer on the cai (now running a 3" short ram), got rid of the maf, running .025 gapped plugs, and cleaned the air filter and i must say WOW. The car feels amazing, especially top end. i'm not sure what helped the most but whatever it is, i'm glad i did it.

when i used to race my buddy's modded 350z i pulled all my distance on him in 3rd gear, and stopped pulling in top of 4th and 5th. if anything he might have pulled a lil on me in 5th. (edit: i pulled on him about 2 cars)

but now i pull on him in 3rd, 4th, and 5th and jus walk away from him. the topend of my car got soooo much better.

the crazy thing is his car got faster too and yet i still pull away. we found out his car was running in limp mode w/ a faulty o2 sensor when we raced before. Since then, he's fixed that and his car has run much stronger. In comparison.... He lost to a stage 2 SRT-4 by 4-5 cars w/ the CEL, and last night he beat that same SRT-4 but now w/ cams by 1 car. although they went from different speed in both races, it shows how much stronger his car is running now.

i never realized how such little things could make such a big difference.
