Default Forged Performance: A couple of visitors stopped by...

A couple of local customers stopped by with their new 370Z's. I went ahead and loaded both of them on the dyno.
Bone stock, and Stillen Exhaust/Berk HFC. Needless to say, I was SHOCKED with the results.

We can't read that much into it, since it wasn't done on the same car. But yes, on the surface, there appears to be some terrific gains to be had with simple exhaust mods. Maybe the blue one was a ringer from the factory.

Those are impressive gains with just HFC's and a cat back.

Thats something else, maybe nissan did something ... And it would allow max gains from simple mods.

Fact is the 350z is lighter than the 370z

Fact is the 370z makes less TQ than the 350z HR

Fact is the 370z makes only 10 more rwhp than the 350z HR.

The 370z sure did save me a lot of money on my 08, but man that is some serious power! Look forward to what tuning can do for the cars.
