Such as it was posted before. You must choose to go N/A(Natural Aspiration) or FI (Forced Inductio).

However, like others said Driving school will help you. Not Drivers Ed driving school but on a track. There is no use having power if you cannot control it. Drive you Z stock for a while and build HP slowly. That way you grow as a driver with your car and the car becomes an extension of your body if you will.

For me, my car is my ****. I beat it every day and never have any issues! Well except that one time when I was drunk.

i think you can buy a used supercharger or turbo kit for 2 grand or around there but then if you dont know how to put it on, youd have to pay more money to get it put on

i would go to that kind of driving school but 2 grand is way too much to blow off for 1 day

Just remember to discount any supposed gains in HP by a factor of 2 or 3 - most manufacturers claims are FOS. I vote for handling/brake mods - the car is fast enough already, faster than most are capable of driving. Save some for a HPDE track day - $150 or so and and instructor in the passenger seat is well worth the $$$

Keep saving for some type of forced induction, until then, learn how to drive your car correctly.

You can get quite a few mods for $2K. Suspension, improved brake lines and pads/rotors, additional chassy bracing, intake, exhaust etc. All depends on what kind of hookups you can find. I've probably spent about $3K total on my Z with the below mods just from finding the right people to help me out. It all depends on what you want your Z to do.
