Hi Scott. What your car will run i have no idea.
stock Z's at HRP can vary from 13.0 to 13.9 and worse.

Ya never know until you go to the track.

You are welcome to use my nittos when we go saturday. (unless you want a baseline of a bone stock Z)

I also have a lid and K and N you can use.

Any way you can snag a cut out before tomorrow?
Or you can drop the muffler tonight... it comes right off and the cats will muffle the sounds to more than legal levels.

Oil Pressure? that sounds abotu right.... but it has been a good while since i looked at a stock oil pressure in the pepper I dont really remember exactly what it was. This MTI oil pump I use keeps the oil pressure VERY high. (60ish)

Welcome to the board Scott.
Congrats on your new Z28!
