Sorry to jack your thread, but How much power were you pushing when you hit 21psi?

And the price is important, but not as much as AFTER SERVICE!!!
You are spending large amount of money, and don't be fooled by the parts list or lil cheaper price. Go with the best Customer review!

She put down 570 rwhp at 18psi and my F-CON map goes up to 22psi so its probably making a little over 600 What kind of power are you making leojang.

This is exactly why I will continue giving GTM as much props as possible. The way they handled the situation when my Vortech went bad was second to none. They didn't hesitate to say they will take care of it. That's why I decided to give them even more of my business.

Try IPP. They seem to have good prices and they are in Texas.

That's Great number.
My car is in the works I will post up when it's done.
Also what kind of setup are you running?

His screen name is sharif@forged, you could PM him on here or better on my350Z.com and he would answer any and all questions you may have.

Good Luck,

1 thing you should also pay attention to before you leap in, buying a built motor from the shop you are going to get it tuned at, will CYA for later... that way no one gets to play the blame game.

Thanks for all the input guys, I went ahead and decided on IPP. I've read about Kyle's work across multiple sites for years! and I know he's the man to go to when you need work on a Nissan Engine. He'll be tuning my car as well later down the road... Longblock Stage 2 with a few extra goodies here we come!!!... woot! I can't wait...

I looked at their prices and it is very good, I'm just not sure if they are reliable so keep us updated.

I have heard great things about GTM. I have also heard good things about SFR. Those would be my two picks to go to.
