Brian K is a Lockheed Martin employee and came to Z Car Garage to have some bolt-ons and aesthetic pieces installed on his 350z. Bolt-on power upgraes included a JWT Pop Charger, Motordyne 5/16″ plenum spacer and the lovely Bassani full cat-back exhaust system:
Here are the intake and plenum spacer installed:

On the dyno we started with baseline numbers of 230hp/229tq at the wheels. Shown below are the gains from the intake+plenum spacer (234hp/232tq) and exhaust (246hp/238tq):
With an UPREV tune final numbers are 251hp/240tq to the wheels:
Brian also wanted to change up a few aesthetic pieces on his Z including the headlights and grille. The new lamps are from Spyder and the grille is a black mesh unit:
