New (to me) 2009 FX50! Mods and Osiris Tune!

[neitjnf]

Hello Everyone!

I just got a nice CPO 2009 FX50 with 47k miles and a 5/100 warranty, I've had it a month and 10 days!

In this time I did:
-Fresh Mobil1 5w30 oil and filter
-AEM Dryflow drop in panel filters
-Secondary cat delete
-Borla catback
-Osiris dyno tune at Predator Performance's AWD Mustang Dyno

with the mods and ecu reset but no tune baseline was 321whp 309wtq

tuned it ended up with 347whp and 323wtq with nice increase across the whole rpm band!

This is a mustang load cell dyno so it's supposed to read lower than Dynojets.


Other things I've done are:
-Rebadged to QX70S and 5.0 fender emblems
-front lower grill insert, black aluminum horizontal lines, looks factory
-Draw-tite Hitch receiver with wiring kit
-FX35 18x8 Wheels with Hankook DynaPro AT Tires
-getting stuck in loose sand at the beach hahaha

Very nice. Thats a pretty descent amount of mods for a month.

welcome to the forum! Glad you made it over here.

Coo, with the tune and mods, though not supportive of the QX70 label. I guess I would ask why?

 

[Ed@TunerStore]

Nice. Waiting for pictures!

Time to build a garage to show all the mods u done.

Most people do that to keep the car looking "newer" than it is, while we all know they are the same car either way. At least he is not badging a 35 as a 50

I also ordered replacement wood trim for the doors since they were in bad shape, I found the OEM wiring kit for the hitch on ebay and that is the one I'm installing.

The QX70S re-badge is just so that it appears to be newer, even at the local Infiniti dealership they were confused and were looking at the VIN to figure it out! I'm taking the 21" wheels to be fixed from curb rash and painted Gunmetal. This is my first luxury vehicle and people look at me like I'm some rich guy, it's interesting. The local dealership is advertising the 2016's base V6 at $62300 :eek.:

now if anyone could help me reactivate the seat memory and auto retract features I'd be so happy!!!

If you are replacing your wood, are you also replacing the center console cupholder area? I need one haha

 

[neitjnf]

Haha only the doors

Thats some great beach pics! Thats Interesting that the fx35 18x8's clear the akebono brakes. You should look into replacing the front bumper & grill with a 2012 & up. Then no1 would have the slightest doubt about it not being a qx70

 

[PEEJ]

He would definitely have to replace the entire front bumper. The grill won't fit later models.

 

[neitjnf]

the wheels didn't clear the front calipers... found out after buying mounting and balancing the tires so with all that money out I added 5/16" spacers to make them fit.
