Default Sasha's 350Z featured in MotoIQ

Sasha got 420 whp with 53.5mm throttle bodies and his own CNC'd runner design. What would happen when he bolted 57 mm ITBs and newly designed and CNC'd runners onto the car?

It's my second 350Z article this year, my first being Mike's (2th PWR) car.

Now THAT'S the way to spend my morning.

No zombie threads to read and/or mod, straight to the real thing! Real build, real race car. I am in absolute awe. Learned a lot! Great work, Sasha!

Definitely enjoyed the read. Is there any Z making more HP N/A? 418 is just insane to me, when comparing to the average at least.

Sasha would not say it's the most powerful. But it sure is one of the most powerful out there! Glad you enjoyed it!

Would you happen to have any ideas of what the fastest NA Z makes? Just curious, you don't typically see anything over 310 lol.

Yeah, caught that part of the vid where the announcer talks it up and asks if it's the most powerful NA VQ and Sasha just deadpans, "No." Ha! Fav moment of the vid.

Pengu, If you're asking is there a more potent NA VQ out there, then I cannot answer. I'm not sure. Maybe other forum members can chime in?

Thanks! Was just curious if Sasha mentioned anyone specific. 418 is amazing especially with 2690lbs. I wish I had the funds and know-how to do that.

HR - contact Sasha. He can help you reach those goals.

Isy - I didn't do any digging into the brakes apart from what is stated in the article. Sorry.
