Back in October of 2015, we purchased a 2014 nissan 370Z with around 10,000 miles on the odometer, not long after we purchased the vehicle we started the modification process. We contacted tony at fast intentions and ordered their true dual catback exhaust system and resonated test pipes along with a set of K&N drop in filters. With the newest modifications, we needed a software that would allow us to gain the maximum horsepower out of our newest addition, so we became an ecutek dealer.
Great power was made with these modifications and thus the road course was the next stop for us and NASA southeast was having an event at CMP.
With zdayz approaching and us wanting to push this vehicle to the next level, we decided to contact Tony once again at Fast Intentions. After a few minutes of talking with tony, we decided we were going to attempt to break the stock block record and also the 1/4 mile record with their stage two twin turbo kit. The order was placed and we patiently waited 10 weeks for the turbo kit to arrive along with all of the supporting modifications that are going to be needed to reach this goal. We were taking a different approach to this as most of the high horsepower 370Zs were achieving these goals with E85, we were going to attempt and reach these numbers with pump 93 gas and water methanol, which was uncharted territory for this platform.
Specialty Z Stage Five Clutch Kit (725 rwhp capable):
With the additional heat and stress that the motor was going to see, we decided to upgrade the radiator, thermostat and radiator hoses with mishimoto products.
We decided to go with the Fast Intentions Fast 500 Fuel Return System, which includes the Aeromotive 340lph fuel pump and 1000cc Bosch style injectors. Since we were going to be using the Aquamist Water Methanol Kit with the 1.2 nozzle jets we would have another 200 cc of additional fuel!
Fast Intentions Oil Cooler Kit:
Aquamist Water Methanol Kit (Mounted in the trunk where the spare tire would normally go)
Alignment prior to arriving on the dyno:
We installed a four point roll cage and the sparco pro2000 seats with a set of Schroth Racing seat belts for additional safety!
Turbosmart Eboost 2 Controller & Water Methanol Gauge:
Next up was the dyno, we were looking for a day that would not be to hot, but in the south around April those days are very difficult to find...
These are three street boost settings that we ended with: 8 psi map, 10 psi map and 12 psi, ranging from 500 rwhp to 630 rwhp!
Here is the highest horsepower Nissan 370z on pump 93 gas dyno graph!
We were shooting for 700 rwhp but the weather was not wanting to cooperate and we ended up falling short, not to worry though as we will attempt again later in the year to break into the 700 horsepower club.
