As part of Larry’s recent feature in Import Tuner Magazine, he needed to get some solid numbers to include in the write-up.  This would be the first time Larry’s Twin Turbo 350z will be put on a dyno since the rebuild.    I showed up to Project X to find the car being prepped for the dyno.

The last time Larry used this particular dyno, he BARELY got the car on it.  So to make sure we didn’t waste time trying to get the car up on the rollers and got to spend all the time working with the tuning, some steps were taken.  Front bumper and sideskirts were completely removed and his Stance coilovers were raised.  To maximize traction the guys swapped out the Forged Specialties wheels wrapped in rubber bands for a set of OEM Nismo 370 wheels with some more meat on them.

Prepped and ready to head to the dyno.

Our destination was Mobile One, an Audi and VW performance shop in Glenview IL.

Made it up onto the rollers with zero issues.

The car was showing great numbers, and they were right around what the guys hoped they would see.

Project X’s Eli worked to squeeze as much power out as he could with the 18G Greddy Kit turbos being the limiting factors.

Not too shabby for 18lbs of boost.

Larry still wants more.

Until spring!
