Ok Antonio and I are arguing car facts. I say that a Z with intake, cat-back exhaust, and ECU (with only boost jets) your basic stage 3 car can not trap 113/114mph. Sure it can be done with race gas, drag radials, and advanced timing. But I have yet to see it be done with street tires, pump fuel, 17psi, and the stock TT rear. Our main argument was over the EVO and the 03/04 SVT Cobra. I said that he could have saved all of his money that he put into the Z (2 motors, 2 turbos, 2 different injector types, 2 fascias and the list goes on). Then you also have the S4 that he bought. If you take all fo that money and add it up it's a large sum. I said that he could have had a newer car, and mod it for cheaper. I said that the Evo's coming out of TurboTrix have a 3 inch turbo back exhaust, intake, AEM EMS, boost controller, clutch and are pulling 11.80's, 11.90's, 12.0's with pump fuel at 25psi. I also said that 03/04 cobras with headers, x-pipe, catback, intake, pulley are netting 475rwhp and 500rwtq granted they are heavy pigs. But with this set-up and drag radials they are netting low 12's high 11's at 117-120mph. I am not saying that the EVO or the 03/04 Cobra is a better or classier car then the Z, so don't get this post confused. I am arguing that both cars respond better to mods, and are cheaper to mod, and since they are newer are IMO more reliable.
