Leo’s 370z

Leo P came to Z Car Garage to have AAM (R-line) intakes installed on his 2013 370z.  The Z made good power with intakes and tuning but Leo reported the Z was running roughly a few days later. Here are the baseline+initial tune dyno runs:

 

Rob suggested running Stillen Gen3 intakes and predicted greater power gains with a tune over the AAM setup. Leo’s 370z now makes 318hp/260tq to the wheels, a significant improvement over the AAM setup indeed!

Ismael P came to Z Car Garage for a Motordyne exhaust system install and dyno.  Here is the Motordyne Shockwave True Dual exhaust system with burnt Titanium tips:


Stock vs Motordyne:

 

While enjoying his Z at the drag strip the clutch slave cylinder failed so we had it towed to our dealership to enusre sure they covered it under warranty.  We picked it up and UPREV tuned it with nice gains bumping peak power to 324hp/267tq to the wheels:

Rich R is long time customer and loves to run with the Lockheed-Martin autocross group. He wanted stiffer ride without compromising ride height or going to full coil-overs. We installed Koni dampers with NISMO coil springs.


Enjoy the Ride Rich!

Tung N. is an auto technician at a local shop and the owner of this beautiful 370z. Tung did a very clean installation of bolt-ons himself and came to ZCG for tuning. We are glad to see that he still enjoys working on cars as a hobby!

On the dyno Rob’s UPREV tuning yielded gains of 10hp/6tq for a total of 295hp/253tq at the wheels. Power delivery was improved throughout the rev range:

Once a Z owner, always a Z owner! Ruben is a long-time 350z owner and we supercharged his car several years ago, here are a few pictures:

 
Ruben is now the proud owner of this 2010 370z 40th Anniversary Edition and he came back to ZCG for some UPREV tuning. Check out the improvements in hp/tq throughout the entire rev range with peak gains of 16hp/12tq to the wheels for a total of 300rwhp/253tq:

We are pleased to hear that Ruben reports a more responsive engine from the UPREV tune!
