Almost dead even... I tip toe on a stock 350z...

But truely its a drivers race... if either one of us does something remotely wrong we pay the price big time.


If you didn't see the thread before I have

Stillen intake
Kintex v4 plenum
Ztube
Borla Headers
Highflowcats
Injen Exhaust (yeah its prolly slowin me down, but i love how it sounds k?)

The AT is what is really killing me =( But I'm not complaining-- having the auto option is really nice, since its my daily driver and im often to tired to drive lol.

Sorry Add Kintex V4 plenum to that list...

Car was a gift-- I'm not going to complain about having an AT-- It does have its advantages-- Considering this is like the first time i've really ever raced... Every other moment of driving I'm pretty content with having an AT.

I have some topspeed headers I haven't even opened-- Should I slap those on instead?-- The borla's sound mean, but give my exhaust a good amount of rasp.

actually the AT does have advantages... our gearing is our advantage.. maybe the Z i raced was a bad driver .. or maybe he wasnt.. he is not the only Z i have taken .. and plus i have taken quite a few 6mt G's even 05's and im talkin about off the line..

Are there any links to hear the sound of the Borla exhaust for our car?

it is a driver's race. i raced a Z and he bogged since he deployed the clutch way too fast. guess he didnt know what hit him

Amen!
My only mods are AEM CAI and the Skunk2 5\8 spacer and can now smoke my buddies 05 track Z pretty badly Before the mods it was pretty much an even race at any speed.
