I'm stock now. What I want to do is a twin turbo with 400-450 whp and a GRD stage 0 short block and a Transgo valvebody. I want to keep the cars streetable since it's my DD. I'm not sure which brand turbo I'd go with as of yet though. I still have alot of researching to do.

I'm on the south side of Chicago, 68th & Michigan to be exact.

Nice, I'm in wriglley area.

For tracks round here I've only driven at GLD, Rte 66, and Byron......Rte 66 is almost out because their tech is HARD. GLD is always like ice for me (in every car I've been in). Byron hooked well down track for me. Gonna be on DR's this season so we'll see if anything is different.

A stock weight Z can run 11s with good tires with 400 whp. We even had a G35 with 400 on street tires go 12.0 at 118 with a really good driver.

Give us a call when you are ready to do your build. 301 330 8835

Come on by our shop right next to O'hare and we can give you a tour. We can show you our 9 second z and another drag G35 we're building right now.

We offer half a dozen stages of VQ motor packages, Tom is running our Stage 1 and then you have our car running our Stage 3 package. We do bolt on's all the way to full builds so check us out if you have some time, I'd love to meet you.

If you were really the Emperor you'd turn him to the dark side.
