From Ann D. of ZONC:

Thank you everyone who made the trip on Sunday from Z Car Garage in San Jose to the top of Mt. Hamilton and then on to Livermore. If you weren’t able to make the trip, we missed you and hope to see you at another of our events soon. We had a great ride with a few unexpected rewards – a group of GTRs at the observatory when we arrived and some horseless carriages on their way up Mines Rd. on their way to The Junction. Thank you Jack and Yolanda for the pictures and video below!

The “racetrack” leading up to Mt. Hamilton:

Dwane has been customer since the opening of Z Car Garage in 2004. We installed one of Vortech’s earliest supercharger kits on his ultra low-mileage ’03 Brickyard 350z circa 2005 and he has been enjoying it ever since.  Almost a decade later forced-induction tuning and support has tremendously advanced and many boosted applications are abandoning the old Split-Second and FMU-based systems.

At ZCG we love the UPREV tuning platform and it allowed us to maximize gains from a new GT MAF, larger injectors and upgraded fuel pump.  We also installed ART pipes on the exhaust side and nice cosmetic addition of LED-based headlights:

On the dyno we picked up 9hp/13tq with smoother delivery throughout the rev range. Mid-to-high gains were significant:
