Tie 276 horses to the front tow-hook.

Seriosuly though, the easiest route would probably be to sell your kit and go TT, FMIC, etc..

Read a ton, you have a lot to learn about cars in general to set something like this up successfully. If you dont, you will be an uneducated customer at a car shop and unfortunately that means you will be sold unecessary/overpriced BS and you wont know any better. Built block, Greddy or APS TT kit and a little race gas and it will be no problem. That is a very vague description of what you need, you also need $20K+ easy....

To the OP, I'm just curious if you bought the Z with the stillen supercharger already installed?

Nope, you need turbos and alot of research.

new cams alone would NOT give you the horsepower needed to reach your goal...i think TT is your only answer

Nice gradual increases tend to have better outcomes.

couldn't spray with it and get 500ish?

You could get 600+ but you need a strong build.

You could try cutting back to 18's. Bigger wheelz are mad phat yo, but like most things that are cool, they suck performance away.
