Approximately the same peak rwhp, but not very close on torque. The z06 is lighter as well. With equal drivers, the z06 will easily beat it in the quarter.

I have never seen a Z06 put down as much rwhp as a properly tuned ATI 350Z. The Z06 puts down ~340 rwhp, which is about 20 less than a ATI Z. Granted, the Z06 makes more tq, but the weight difference is not that great (less than 100 lbs). IMO it should be a good match.

all the 350Z needs to do is get 430hp-435hp at the crank and the power to weight ratio is better to the Z06 and after 430hp the torque factor difference between a blown Z and a stock Z06 becomes a non-factor as the HP number is to great to overcome by the Z06 Torque..........Z06 loses if I was driving.

Unless somebody can run low, low 12's in a z with the ATI kit, it won't be very close. An ATI equipped z will weigh 3300 to 3350 at least, and the z06 will be in the 3100 to 3150 range. That alone is worth a couple tenths. The torque advantage is enough to amount to something, probably another 3 or 4 tenths...

What I REALLY want to see is the V.P. of ATI and the editor of Sport Z magazine to get into it. !!! Yeah . . . .yeah My money is on Bob of Sport Z . . . nice guy. I hope he sues ATI for leaking the info
First look at this thread and I see hate monger Jim Jones is stirring up more hate.

Sue ATI, hmmm. You may be surprised at what action I've put into play. BTW, his info is INCOMPLETE & WORTHLESS BY ITSELF AND HE SHOULD KNOW THAT AND STAND BY OUR AGREEMENT.

I did 13.4 N/A

All this desk chair quarter backing and devil's advocate stuff is getting old. 13.4 blown at 320-350rwhp SUCKS!

Can anyone here be real for one day and just say the times blow?

Stock Z06? I will hand him his hat next season, they are top end cars not 1/4 cars.

13.4 NA! Great 60' lousy trap (ET Streets.)

13.4 blown at 320-350rwhp SUCKS!.............dude you hit it on the head.............like i said give me 350rwhp.............i will bet you 1,000,000 dollars i hit 12.6 at over 110mph on 50% Proxie tires running 90 degrees out in Northern California summer heat, **** i figure every 10hp to the wheels equates to damn near 1/10th. go figure..............ran 14.09 stock (230rwhp).....................13.241 (300rwhp) with mods..............give me 50RWHP more and im deep into the 12's..................the equation is very simple, its all about P/W Ratios..............yes a good driver is needed, if you suck go to driving school and learn how to drive.

This test must have had the guys from R&T driving again since the times are almost identical.

If you don't like my posts, just don't read my threads. Don't get on them to call me a trouble maker. GFY.
Jones, I'm not mad yet -- but I'm getting there.

....wait a min. ATI cheated? if it's true that's funny ish!!!

p.s. i never understood how 1 driver is supposed to run good times in 3 completely different cars...i know there all Z's, but they all have different superchargers, putting out different #'s....how could he possibly know how to launch each one in the little time he drove them/practiced on them? i just figured, he's a pro, he'll know what he's doin....

Hey, you've just stumbled onto something. Maybe a 4-5 page feature article is better than just numbers after all. What a concept.

That is my point, there is no win or loose it's a write up review, so why is one company saing they one and pulling down websites Forums et al? Just wierd.

It's a shoot out not a race. People like numbers though, those dang Dyno numbers! Live and die by them (not me.)

Shame on the company's actions tsk tsk.
