This guy says his Z is boosted, but this thing sounds way 2 high pitched, plus lacks any FI sounds, I.E. spooling of the turbo, or a wastegate or B.O.V. let off, what r your guys thoughts on this? Some of u guys mite not care, but it just sounds 2 me like this guy is trying to sound cooler than he actually is!

work filter owns me!!!

 

^^^ lol

 

No way he cant even pull an NSX! Any FI Z trapping less than 110mph is total weaksauce.

 

lol...agreed!

 

+1.... I just watched a couple of Berts vids and even with an in car camera you can hear the whoooosh of the turbo's. And its definitely not SC'ed

 

no way would an NSX pull like on a boosted Z IMO a stock NSX would have a hard time pulling on a modded NA Z..

 

i agree, this vid shows a Z w/ I/H/E and a shot of N.O.S. completely walk a stock NSX

pretty sure a boosted Z would do much of the same

 

The cars are pretty compatible as far as weight to power.. with the NSX weighing a few hundred less. Nice car but way underpowered..

 

I thought the Z stock for Stock would walk an NSX? No low end torque to get the NSX off the line quick. Guess I was wrong huh?!

I just read HP specs on the NSX 270HP from 91-2005. Now maybe I got the wrong numbers, but I dont think a 270HP machine can "walk" a 286HP machine with similar drivers. Just my .02.

 

The difference in weight is the deciding factor. that along with the right driving/timing and you'll be able to get a good distance and keep it. Now mod the Z to compensate for the weight and the Z should have no problem pulling..

 

i'm not sure why you guys are discrediting the video.. if its a boosted Z with a 3" exhaust and a APS BOV or another quiet BOV.. you won't hear it over that exhaust.. also not all NSX's are slow.. some of them run low 12's on spray.. and there are a number of Twin Turbo and SC NSX's out there

 

97' and up were 3.2L making 290hp. Not much but the gearing is PERFECT in those cars. Fastest NSX has been a 99' Zanardi edition that trapped 108+mph and ran high 12's.

 

There are other cars besides 350Z's that are modified & are running with a blower, Turbo, or Spray.

It kind of cracks me up when someone says something like "yeah a 350Z is as fast as _____ if you throw a turbo & boost it so it puts out 500hp". Guess what, the car you are comparing it to can be boosted as well so what is the point? I could build a sentra that would blow the doors off a stock 350Z.....

Very true, but the only reason i posted this up here was because the owner of the Z says its boosted but you can't hear anything because he has a boost issue, i was only posting it up here 2 discuss whether or not you guys believe it 2 b boosted or not! that was it.

 

[QUOTE=dozzer1b]doesn't sound like it...

 

Glad someone cleared that up because I was just getting ready to do the same lol. NSX's just don't seem to make a ton of power. The most I have seen is like 400whp even with their stock titanium connecting rods. Everyone knows that a turbo Z is going to make at least 400whp even more if it is built. If I had to guess I would say that was a 350Z with a couple of bolt ons against a 290hp NSX.

 

you guys need to do some research on Turbo Pineapple Factor X from Vegas.. the owner is on SupraForums.. he also tunes alot of other cars

 

Didnt sound boosted but that NSX exhaust could be totally drowning the **** out....

 

word....you cant really hear my BOV...dual 3" AAM with open dumps = loud as fawk.
