I really hope the 350Z wasnt stock... If he was that should have been an easy kill . Those run mid 14's 1/4mi stock...

He has the 2.6 from ZZP, different company.

Denny I spoke to you not long ago about your setup. Thanks for doing this review so fast, everything is well detailed and understanding. This is an awsome setup for less than 1k not including the other stuff that is.... Great numbers just what im looking for.

Oh yea dont know if you said it but whats the bigger setup your going with next month?

Great write up very easily understood. I just bought my 2006 SS/SC but am afraid to go as far as you due to warranty which was a big selling point.

Denny,

I am really impressed with your right up, i got 2005 chev colbalt SS/SC and working my way through my mods and god knows i would really enjoy sitting down with you to talk options, but i got 2 questions for you 1) i really headed towards adding the stage 2 kit can i combine what u have done specially when it comes to the pully change 2) what is this MALF you keep refferring to i probably missed something but please explain??
and i lied i have 3 rd question 3) this step 1 cold spark plug never seen this call out on the ngk spark plug

if you can help me out with some of these question i would be grateful

P.S between 1 to 10, 10 being highest how far would u go to say ZZP is a reliable product all around?

Thank you
To answer your questions:

1)You can buy stage 1 (Injectors + tune) and get a ZZP modular pulley. But then you void your warranty so no point in buying the stage 1.

2)MAFT is a piggyback computer that is used to control the Fuel mixture. It works well but a HPtuners custom tune is better.

3)Dont understand your question.

If I was to rate ZZP.....mmm.. I love those guy's, excellent customers service.
Their products are a good 10 out 10. They back up their products 100%.

what exactly is voiding the warranty? the stage kit or the pully.

But i think i am going to go with the stage 2 kit and then kinda work from there what do u think?? any suggestions based on this idea??

as far as my spark plug question, i was just really asking what u meant about the "1 step colder gapped"

Just as a side note the Aeroforce Interceptor gauge i planning to buy the colum that kinda lets you add to gauges so i was going keep the stock boost gauge and add the interceptor gauge as a second gauge. think there would be any issues with that???

I dont think your knock was coming from fuel, it mostly comes from timing. I would invest in a wide band A/F controller, and a pyrometer to control your timing.

It sucks you cant see whats really going on like knock voltage and actual A/F, @ friends om mine run AEM Standalone and we tune that all the time.

I would get HPTuner and spend some time on the dyno, get a lot more life out of your motor.

but thay actually richen the A/F to lower cumbustion temps to run more timing and that is where you could have been geting knock from. you get more performance out of timing than you do the A/F, and if it was changed from factory or more air 2.6" thats probobly why.
