Like taurran said it suck when lurching from a stop but once you past 1st gear it is all pull since your RPM will never dip bellow 4K RPM

+1 this thread is very encouraging for those of us that don't necessarily need a drag strip "monster" just something to whoop up on a V8 once in a while

44. SFR twin turbo system with dual SFR 3" exhaust and stock everything else.24k turboed miles.51K on stock motor.91 octane California pump **** daily driver for two years.The tuning was done by me with an SS box on a DD and then I put in on a Dynojet with SAE correction. And I would like to add that this is one of the fastest Z's out there on a stock motor with some real hard turboed mileage on it.I like to back up my words with actions so if you are ever in SD, hit me up and you can have a ride or drive the car
479WHP,440ft/lbs @10.4psi
456WHP,420ft/lbs @9.6psi
440WHP,406ft/lbs @8.5psi
It was recently dynoed again with the addition on one of our plenums and it made 444WHP @7.8 psi right at redline.We are upping the rev limiter and then hitting the dyno again in our pursuit of 500WHP at the lowest boost possible with just bolt-ons and without touching the stock motor.At this point I am pretty stoked since the motor has lasted alot longer then I thought.This is the shops test mule for new stuff and it has been driven hard and dynoed in excess of 100 times.LOL.So there is hope for the stock motor guys...... if your car is tuned properly

I just wanted to add that this is one of the best cars I have ever owned It has been reliable and fun.I have owned quite a few different vehicles and built hundreds of cars over the last 10 years and for what this car is,it is one of the top cars ever.The Supras are pretty bad-*** too and reliable if you keep the power levels down below 600WHP

Hey fellas, I found this thread so helpful here that I started the same kind of thread over on G35Driver.com. I know a lot of you have accounts over there and I would really appreciate it if you could put the same info that you put here over there also. Believe me, it really helped me make a lot of decisions with the direction that I wanted to go in without having to ask a lot of repetative questions. Thanks in advance.
