I just purchased a new daytona blue base model. This is my first Z so I am going to be full of questions. I previously rolled my 04 GTO, that is the reason why I purchased the Z. I am very impressed with the handling of the car, and do not think I can roll it. I do believe it lacks on the horsepower though, but I am a speed freak. That leads to my first newby question. What twin turbo system produces the most power>, and has the pontential to produce more later down the road? Furthermore I have read several articles in modified mag on the Z and found out that these motors are really sensitive, and people have lost horsepower through mods. What are some of the members take on this? Finally I am in the market for exhaust. What catback is producing the most power?

Never heard of losing hp from doing mods.

Search for the best turbo system. We even have a subforum just for that topic.

We also have a forum for intakes and exhausts. Your answers will be in there.

How did you roll the GTO??

I guess you can say you rolled right into a Z.

Put an aftermarket air-intake on a Celica and it loses 5-10hp
No joke, happened to a buddy of mine, better sound but loses the HP
