wow just what i expected from 25psi Ill run you on my g5x4 and just a little spray to shove it in your face. 200 shot anyone? what was that stage 1 heads and cam setup on a "real Z" look up dyno numbers for what a stage 4 will get you. TTP has a heads cam setup on a stock ls1 making 505rwhp im sure your little 9-10 psi will handle that.

Sorry, but I'd take a used C5 Z06 over a new 350Z. The Z06 is by far the superior sports car. IMO, anybody who doesn't think so really isn't being objective.

Sarcasm doesn't come across well on the internet. We need a little sarcasm emoticon.

I would too. I love Z06's. And I wouldn't take a 350Z if you gave it to me. Well I would, but then I would sell it and buy a Z06, a Supra, or another RX-7.

They may look bland for now but back 15 years ago they were awsome power houses. I would like to find that issue of road and track, you wouldn't happen know the year and month of the issue?

Use some tact and cut the attention-whoring and most everyone on here would respect your ride...
I'm not looking for respect from knowone, especially from a ********** like you.

Ooooh! "Dumbass" and "**********" in the same post! I am so threatened! What a joke you are! You typify everything that is wrong with the "rice" crowd. Nothing but excuses and resorting to insults in an effort to mask your lack of articulation. Nice lack of reasoning in your post and way to sidestep the issue of neither engine being built for boost, which was your lame argument. I won't bother posting again as you shown your complete lack of comprehension. Thanks for entertaining me with your worthless drivel! Ben

two....they are appreciating already with low miles, so keep em low, unlike any corvette of the last 25 years..... a low mile 94 just sold for 44K on ebay.
Mine has under 9K, but its a 4th vehicle, thats why it wont get used a ton.

2. Calling names like that is uncalled for and makes you look like an immature child. Which, of course, you probably are anyway.
