...... I was looking for some extra umph under the hood and don't know where i need to go. my goal is something along the lines of 350 whp which means i would need about 80 ponies to go. i explored all the options and am stuck between feeding my baby the bottle(nos) or going turbo. both applications look as though i may need to build motor up. any suggestions? most cost effective? (poor college student) aaand anywhere in houston that someone can recommend to possibly build Z motor without charging me a kidney or so? also i'm thinking of just spraying a 75 shot on the stock block.... i'm torn...

 

I'm torn on whether I should cut back on my forum time...

 

Oh no

 

UGH!

 

Every time I see a "please help" thread, I think to myself that someone actually needs help fixing their car. Yet every time this type of thread is what I find.

wtf

 

Go with a double shot of NOS. just make sure it doesn't blow the welds on the intake.

 

haha!

 

I'm a college student too, and i have better things to worry about than how to get more power out of my Z... Open a book, get a degree, earn some money, THEN mod your Z.

 

Your car came with 287 at the crank, not the wheels. RWHP might be around 250 max with your mods, probably less. the only way you are going to get to 350 at the wheels is FI or NOS. Neither of which is recommended on an '03 with 110k on the clock unless you build the motor - and a "poor college student" cannot afford to do any of those things. Do it as a reward to yourself after you graduate and get a real job.

 

How many of these threads are we going to have?

"I'm poor, what are some cheap mods that can give me tons of power? I'm thinking twin turbo and NOS, anywhere I can get this for really cheap?"

Do some research, it's not that difficult. There is a search function at the top of the screen, use it.

 

Buy a turbo whistler and call it a day.

 

Needs to get an interfooler also!

 

Don't forget the muffler delete!

 

 

non-descriptive thread title.... immediate 2 week banz from da interwebz

 

wow i didn't know so many douches were on these forumns. i did do my research you d-bags. i was merely speaking aloud that someone may have an idea or give me some insight had they been in the same position as me. aaand to the doucher thats talking whp i dyno'd at 270. its easier to rip on someone online rather than to come to a collaborative thought that may actually help.

 

No need to get butt hurt... if you read thru the sarcasm (which should be expected as you've asked the same question 1000 other members ask on a monthly basis), you will find your answer... Let me make it more clear... as someone who has been in your exact same position, my advise is to stick with bolt ons and a good tune and lower your goals to around 260 WHP dynojet.

 

then be happy!

If you was serious about modding, you won't of named the thread what you did! You are the douche for asking the same question over and over...the answer is the same, when situations are...

 

I'm surprised this thread isn't closed yet...
