wiz1987 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hi guys, I've just ordered myself a stainless cat-back system and a cold air induction kit so hoping to get about 25-30 bhp increase and the same amount of torques. what else would you recommend? been looking at the plenum either spacer or new one - any thoughts? Also whats a fair price to advertise my OEM exhaust for once the stainless is fitted? it's in good nick as the cars only done 27k any help much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 You wont get any power increase im afraid mate. All these figures never live up. I have got a mountain of stuff done to my car and only made 305.5 bhp after a remap. Until you get a remap your car will actually lose power. Remaps can only be done by 3 tuning specialists. The closes to us is rs tuning in leeds. My car is a 297bhp (300ps) model on my first dyno run i only made 293bhp. If your car is a 287 bhp, the actual first dyno runs usually do first run around 260bhp - 270bhp. The cars never run at the quoted figures. Get a plenum spacer, decats/high flow cats, a decent y-pipe and a 2006 revup intake box if your chasing power. The induction kit will not show a gain in power and infact may cause you to lose power (you have to add up if you want the cool noise or power, cool noise then keep the induction kit, power-- get a revup 2006 300ps intake box) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiz1987 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 260! S**t, lol ok so this 300ps uprev is the way forward - not looking for mega gains just wanted to break the 300bhp mark and yeah its the 280 (cough) ish model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 no sorry, my car is the 300ps revup enginer( thats the model number) The remap software is called uprev. With a 287ps model you will struggle to break the 300bhp mark im afraid. I will dig out a link to the guys that got done at rs tuning.

Neilp Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 This is a group buy that went on a couple of months ago. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=45192&hilit=rs+tuning&start=60 There is various chat about the results on it.
