Mark@Abbey m/s Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Had a 370Z in on Saturday to have a Akrapovic system fitted and a remap , had a poke around and I seem to have given everyone some wrong info, these cars only have 1 set of Catalytic convertors not 2 sets like I thought, the centre silencers which i thought where Cats are just resonated silencers.

And would that be mine Mark Car is going well with a nice subtle but sporty note. Quote
The G Man Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 I take it that this was the full Evolution System? What was the results before and after remap/fitting? Quote
Chris`I Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 What was the results before and after remap/fitting? Just get it done man Quote
Mark@Abbey m/s Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 What was the results before and after remap/fitting? Just get it done man NiceZed's car is an Auto but it still got good gains just like Chris's car did when we Upreved his car. Mark can I post your dyno graphs up? cheers Quote

Ebized Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 What was the results before and after remap/fitting? Just get it done man I am, I am! Just the slight logistical problem of 900 mile round trip Think of it as a must do - like us coming up to your neck of the woods - doubt most of us will get back with less than 2k miles done Quote

Mark@Abbey m/s Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 Here is a dyno plot for a Auto 370Z we did last week. DARK BLUE dotted - stock at the hubs LIGHT BLUE slash/dotted _-akrapovic full system and HKS panel filters SOLID DARK BLUE - akrapovic full system HKS panel filters and Uprev remap fitting exhaust and panel filter gained 10 bhp and 5lb/ft at the top end from the stock car fitting exhaust/panel filter and remap with Uprev gained 22bhp and 11 lb/ft from the stock car Quote
Chris`I Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Good to see another auto get done and also to see stock vs mods vs mods+map. Seems my Gen3 intakes must do some fiddling with the MAF to alter the fueling after all looking at that Gotta love the smooth mid range torque Quote
Mark@Abbey m/s Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 Chris, did you have HFC's fitted to your 370Z? Yes your car wasnt as rich on AFR before the Uprev remap so the larger dia maf tubes must work, but to be honest if your remapping anyway I wouldn't bother with these. Quote
Chris`I Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Chris, did you have HFC's fitted to your 370Z? Not yet, its on the list of to-do's. Also consistent to see peak torque and BHP are at the same speed on my car and the one posted. (click thumbs for full size) Quote
Mark@Abbey m/s Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 If we take the exhaust as the same looks like your Stillens gain around 6/7 bhp at the hubs. The Akrapovic is quiter than both the HKS Super Sound Master and the Stillen System so it may not flow quite as well. Quote
Chris`I Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Yeah nice to know that hacking up the car was worth it for some HP. TBH I didnt expect the Gen3's to give anything after the UpRev, but appears they give a litte extra. I got them for free with the Stillen deal so it didnt bother me, other than the effort required to hack up the car a little. And the fact they need the bumper off to clean them every 50k miles (will do it more often though). Dont tell G Man that the Akra might not flow as well as the Stillen, he may cry Lovely looking and sounding system though - you should hear it with G Man's HFCs Quote
