Hmm, I don't agree. There is nothing wrong with asking someone to race. A stock Z IS something to back himself up. he had no idea he had a SC under the hood, most s2k's don't. He got his A$$ handed to him, oh well. And I am sure hes not dumb enough to not be able to figure theres somethingmore then exhaust in there.

"Who cares, he's here entertaining us with his story..." This I agree with.
I got a PE TT kit that should be at my shop next Friday. Tell him to call me

One thing I'm not to sure about. The Borla True Dual exhaust (which I plan on getting) claims 20 rwhp. One guy posted that what they claim is ture, and another posted with an actual dyno sheet with a 17 rwhp gain. I am having trouble beliving this? Know anything about it EVO S2000? (Sorry, not trying to hijack the thread)

Also, Yeah, I cant wait for the crawford intake plenum. To bad the "BLING" Plenum costs so much.

A vortech kit sounds fun

However, I already have around 5k or so in mods planned, it will have to wait.

I have a good Z story...

Me and my buddy was on our way to get some food. He was in his civic

http://www.evolutionautosports.com/civichbsteve.htm

and there was a 350z that was flying behind us. And slowed down and reved at us.

We got the biggest kick out of this. He have no idea, that my friends' car make 513 to the wheels and only weights about 2400lbs. Last time he ran at track. Low boost at 420 to the wheels. The car ran 11.2 at 127mph.

When his wastegate opend up with the 3" exhaust. You should of seen the look on the z guy's face. After two gears later... we couldn't find the z in the rear view mirror.

This race was completely un fair. But he was looking for preys on the road. But we had him for lunch.

If you go back and read again, he told the guy no thanks...

But thanks for the numbers anyway...

Out of curiosity, what is the reference for your top speeds?
