I do not have a carbon fibre knob

Or a device that keeps me going at a steady pace

Or hot leather encasing my nether regions

And until yesterday I had the less desirable heavy round ones

 

But …as of today:

 

I have more aural pleasure

My chamber has been enlarged

My emissions come out more quickly

When I push down it’s smoother

And I get more response!

Plus it’s all legal

 

Who did all this…. not Ann Summers but… Abbey Motorsport :thumbs::thumbs:

 

Thanks Chaps - its great (Berks HFCs, Milltek CBE, Plenum Spacer, Uprev - with JWT PC already on).

 

Everything SMD and Will said is true. It isn't just about numbers - more consistent throttle response and fuelling particularly noticeable in lower gears, more torque throughout the range - just more responsive all round. Noise - subtle when you need it - noisy when you want it but nice noisy not horrible noisy.

Very happy for you mate, glad you are enjoying it. Its a great combo and you just fall for the car all over again.

 

I get the feeling you will really enjoy this summer :teeth:

Thanks Will and glrnet :thumbs:

 

There is always the danger you will be disappointed because your expectations are so high - hence why I checked it all out with SMD first.

 

I am reasonably certain now that I am staying with the 350Z for a long time. The last time I felt like this about a fun car was when I had an Alfasud Ti (although there is no obvious comparison!) That was the only car I have had for more than 3 years (with the exception of the day-to-day old Toyota Corolla auto which is now 19 years old).

 

Only future plans are HEL/HKS lines and probably Eibach or similar ARBs. It is unlikely that I will go with any cosmetic stuff - I can't really justify the cost.

Aaw, you sound like a really happy bunny :p

 

You should have seen us when I took him for a little drive in my car.... 2 grown men with a combined age of over 100 driving through a covered car park giggling like schoolgirls at the sound of the engine & exhaust :cloud9:

 

350z + milltek + berks + pop charger is the equivalent of a lovely red velvet smoking jacket for us older members :thumbs:

Going with your title to the thread I am reminded of Will's comment when he had his Berks & upRev.... "it's like giving the Zed Viagra"

 

Performance enhancing indeed :lol:

 

So you guys, how does the uprev compare with the viagra, as I have only tried the uprev - is it better/worse/about the same :D

My reputation is being besmirched with talk about:

- age (I was around 60% of the combined age quoted).

- giggling like a schoolgirl in an underground car park

- viagra - as if, I ask you, titter ye not missus

 

anyway.....to answer your question...you would need to consult Will if you need confidential advice B)
