Thats a pretty impressive set-up. Most likely you will want to post your times here: https://my350z.com/forum/drag/233840-top-25-1-4-mile-times-for-tt-st-supercharger-nitrous-bolt-ons-stock.html

The best you will do is probably 5.3 at best!!
With a super charged car you will be lucky to be in the 4's!!

edit-you could do 0-60 in 5.5 seconds stock and then add 30whp and run slower. 0-60 isnt a good measurement for gains in power, its more a measurement of a cars traction, and test surface which on anything other than a track will not be very consistent and therefore making the measurement worthles.
yup yup couldnt agree more
