Not sure which one your car has? VQLab Lite reads it from the ECU when it connects, for free.

What you can tune

VQLab shows the 370Z's maps as editable heatmap grids, with undo, compare and smoothing. Depending on the ECU software version, they include ignition timing, fuel targets, rev and speed limiters, airflow (MAF) scaling, injector settings and cam timing. What each map does.
