Message Well where to begin?! I have had some local Z freaks asking me to put an event together like this for about 6 months so finally, when we had enough interest, my company (ZHookUP) and Adrenaline motorsports made it happen. Before I go any further I want to give a huge shout out and thanks to Sean King (Seank.STL) and Peter Kalvachev (Petar) for helping coordinate this awesome weekend. I could not have done it without you guys.

Greg and Seb Arrived at Lambert International Airport in St. Louis at 12:30 AM Friday morning (Oct. 7th). We drove to Peter’s house and before they stepped foot in the driveway, the hood latches began popping.

We woke up the next morning and Peter’s lovely wife Brittany had a nice breakfast prepared for us. From there we headed to Adrenaline Motorsports where we had the Dyno reserved for two days to tune the Z’s.

While getting set up, we realized Adrenaline’s Dyno software was dated, but thanks to the knowledge shared between Greg, Seb, and Sean, it was only a matter of time before we got the issue ironed out.

Parking lot the first morning-The theme throughout this whole weekend was "No front facia"-lol



Sean and Peter Pulling Peter's plenum to address a Valve Cover leak and replace Peter's Drilled injectors with Nismo 615cc Injectors.

In the meantime, We strapped my car down to the dyno. Mind you we got it back from paint Wednesday, installed Ash's 2.5" piping and Massives on Thursday Night, 300 degree and Nismo 740's, and 58mm throttle bodies on Friday, and dyno Saturday Morning.

My Dyno results (the boost jets and stock manifolds on my car need to go bye-bye)

Joe could have made much more power but his car liked to run lean due to the drilled injectors. DON'T BUY DRILLED INJECTORS!
