Default Evo VIII owner Looking at Z's

Whats up you guys, I'm an Evo VIII owner and I've allways had a thing for the 350z's and I think it might be time where I might trade the evo in for something different like an 07 350z .

But Im wondering how the Z's compare to the evo. My care has all bolt ons and cams making about 330 whp. Is it hard to make a Z as fast? Im totally serious about this and I'm trying to do as much research as I can, just looking for some opinions

Thanks

interesting how many evo owners buying Z's and 350z owners are getting evos! good luck getting the Z. the 07-08's produce good power. definitely a good choice

Its harder to make power on the z than your evo..in the 07-08 z 300whp is attainable with correct bolt ons and tune only way to go for more is FI

If evos where na the same would be said about it.

fi is the way to go. A momentum turbo kit will bump you to near 400whp. Much more with appropiate mods

Screw the wing, Evos and STis look so clean without em... rear lip wing is the way to go. As for performance, yes, go FI if you plan over 300whp. I slapped on a Momentum ST and got 375whp on the base flash... I must say, being a former Lancer owner, the Evo is much more liveable as a DD.
