anyone have FI done at zcargarage

I am seriously thinking about going FI soon. I haven't decided on which kit though. The only reputable place i have heard about in norcal is zcargarage.

Who has had FI done at zcargarage? I have heard nothing but good things about them.

Please list what was done and your experience and also approx pricing info (say like approx >7K for ex).

Thanks in advance.

You can't go wrong with ZCarGarage! They are a top notch shop that has installed numerous FI systems on our cars (including mine). They have an in shop dyno that will allow them to spend the appropriate amount of time tuning your car once all the components are installed.

I had the APS TT system installed on my car over a year ago and have had no problems to date (knock on wood). They have also installed additional mods on my car. Right now I am putting down 472 rwhp / 421 tq (on 100 octane gas). Here is a list of most of the mods they installed on my car:

- APS TT
- Koyo Radiator
- JWT Cams
- JWT Clutch/Flywheel
- Kinetix SSV Manifold
- ZCG Extra Oil Cooler
- Defi A Pillar Gauges
- Injen SES Exhaust (with test pipes)
- Tein Flex Coilovers w/EDFC

I would rather not comment on pricing, as it can change. Plus, I would rather not think about it.

Give Rob a call or stop by the shop. He's a great guy. My G is down there now, so stop by and ask him to give you a spin in the beast. He can also give you a rough estimate of costs.

I haven't had Rob do FI yey (soon though), but I had him install headers & a Unichip. He also dyno tuned it. He is a smart @ss but is as knowledgeable as can be about Nissans. If I were you, I would stop by to discuss your needs. He'll guide you along, tell you upfront what's what.

You're going F1 now Jeff!? I thought you were trying to scale back on the modding

Glad to see the bug finally got a hold of you
