Went to Z car and found out the truth....
We'll as we all know I've had all my Z work done at SP and am very happy with my car..But as everyone knows Sp's dyno reads high and I had no clue on my dyno numbers I was told "low 700 high 600 WHEEL HP" I tursted the person that built my car and was happy the way it ran..Well a coulple of weeks ago my car felt differrent and my car was running different...Like the tune changed on me...Then I couldn't rev the motor past 3500rpms due to limp mode because my flywheel was coming apart and setting off a check enging code of crank angle sensor...So I took my car to z car to get the clutch and flywheel changed so I could drive my car normal again and decided to see "the real #'s" I know my car is fast and never thought it had 700whp but guesstamated low 600whp....The highest I trapped was 134mph on a cold night boosting 23lbs witch is a good indication of low to mid 600whp..Well it was a warm day and we dynoed my car...Ready for the numbers???...........570whp and 540wtq
In my cars defense it was hot, my a/f is FUKING rich 10.1 to 8.1 and the car was only boosting 18lbs boost as opposed to the 23lbs it boosts on the street.......Anyways I just wanted you all to know..Also ZCAR GARAGE is the BEST shop I've ever been to Rob is a cool *** guy and the Guys working on the cars are baddass and know there ****...The first time I every met Rob he gives me one of his own personal cars for a "loaner" car to drive back up to sac while my car was being worked on.... I wish I would of gone there from the start....So anyone with Z needs around NOR CAL go to Z car garage.....I have some plans for my z and have about 100+ more wheel hp coming soon....

I dunno about that, wait till you get your numbers on 23 lbs of boost and a good tune, Teds dyno was off, but it cant be THAT far off, if he said high 600's, and your 23lbs of boost dyno says like 630-650rwhp on Robs, then we know what you were around, your car on meth had to have at least 480-520rwhp that **** was craaaazy. What was the best trap on that setup, I forget?
I wanna go to Robs and re-dyno myself, but **** at this rate I am gonna have like 268rwhp.

Those are excellent numbers, regardless. Anything over 350hp is fine by any standards. I wouldnt get so down. Its just numbers.
