Default SS vs. Turbo 350Z

I raced a nice blue turbo 350Z today. We went from 65 to about 115 and I pulled him by about a car. It was a great race and the guy was cool. I was pretty surprised I pulled on him because when we next to each other and hit it, I heard him spool up and I thought I was gonna get beat. I didnt though and I was pretty excited!

I have full bolt-ons by the way...

Cool,good kill.

I had a local 350Z owner tell me flat out that my bottle would not even help.
We were pacing each other down the road ,he was talking smack and saying he wanted to race for$$$$.
I was ready to go,but just so he knew what was up i purged, and he then told me .That wont help you....

Did not end up getting the dude to race .

And at the stop light i told him what i run (knowing he wasnt going to race anyway)and he said he never seen any Camaro run that fast . I told him i was by no means the factest SS in town.
Low 11's High 10's is not all that uncommon these days.

Kinda of a Jackass!

Good run,way to show that import what is goin on!

Nice Race bro. By full bolt ons does that mean like everything before FI or Nitrous? And did that guy by any chance tell you what Turbo system he was running or what psi it was at?

Full bolt ons is kinda just what it says...anything that bolts on. No internal work done. No FI or Nitrous. No he didnt, I didnt even talk to him, I just heard him spool up when we raced. It didnt sound like it was a very big turbo but it was definatley there.

Full bolt ons usually means LS6, or FAST, Ported Stock TB or a 90 with the FAST, headers, u/d pulley, lid, exhaust, free mods, etc. Most cars like these dyno 350-360. What helped him the most was the gears, when I had 4.11's. the car felt like a ******* rocket . A TT350z is nothing to take lightly, some of them make some good power.

Nice kill! I have yet to run into a Turbo'd 350Z. I always knew that a full bolt on SS was able to take a Turbo'd 350Z and now I see that you have confirmed that for me. Good Job!

An unbeatable mentality and a male enhancement proceedure seem to be included in that 34,999+ Tag on those 350's... Seriously, lots of those guys think they are unbeatable. Its a nice car but....

You're right man, I better not tangle with an e-thug like yourself. Hell I'm quivering just worried by the thought of you sending a round through my computer screen. Since when did I even mention anything remotely related to a physical fight?

My neighbor thinks that 350Z's are super quick cause he got beat by one when we was on his new suziki 600. I guess he cant ride too well yet cause he should have waxed a 350Z, he did say he was kinda scared though racing since he just got the bike.

I have not lost to a full bolt on ss yet. You can ask anyone on here that has raced me and they can attest to it. I made 462rwhp at 9psi, you tell me what bolt on ss(without nitrous) can make that much power with bolt ons.

I really hope you are not trying to discredit the race I had. But then again, there are always naysayers who will never believe thier car can get beat. And no one EVER said a full bolt on SS would make anywhere near 462rwhp so relax. If you dont believe it that fine...thats your own ignorance.
