Message	Ferrari F430. By the time you are finished building up the NA Z to the point that it is making serious power, you would probably have spent enough to buy an f430. And the Ferrari is an all-around better car than the Z. Now, if you happen to be rich enough to not care about wasting that much money, then the best bet would be to examine the engines of other cars. Remember that car manufacturers spend lots of R&D dollars in trying to improve the power and efficiency of their engines. So take a look at how they do it. The BMW M5 has individual throttle bodies, so take a look at how they implemented it. Also take a look at other high hp/L engines such as the engines in the M3, the new M5, F430, etc. That will give you an idea of what it takes to get serious power out of the VG30.
