ok guys, well we finally got it off the dyno and i got to drive it. the car pulls like a DE on 8 pounds at 4.5 psi. on 9 pounds (highest boost setting i will let it go out with) is pulls like a fully built motor on 12 psi.

this is the fastest stock motor car i have ever driven. i seriously couldnt believe it !!!


congrats mike and be safe, keep it on low boost for a while....

I missed this car by like 10 minutes today, which is too bad because this thing sounds ridiculous. Have fun with it Mike!

Driving a turbo Z isnt like flying an F22
i'm going to hold my thoughts.. and by the power of God i hope i will never have to post them..

but to your F22 question.. its actually safer to fly an F22 than drive a TT Z.. there are less traffic in the air

Personally.. i would never allow my child to drive anything over 200 hp at 16.. especially RWD... hey.. but he isn't my son.. cheers everyone

doug, so you're saying you'd rather have your child, 16, fly an F22 over a 350z, assuming he knew how to fly, etc, and u had a private jet etc.

[just putting u in a scenario]

I agree. I keep looking at this thread and it makes me want to get a 350Z with an HR, but I could never get rid of my car.
