I've generally not been impressed with the results of FI on the Z as well. I know the SC works well for guys like Kirk who autocross a lot, and I've actually toyed with the idea of SC just because I've never owned a supercharged car. I still don't really think I can justify the inevitable issues that often come with forced induction, when I could pick up a warrantied vehicle that would perform on the same level.
Yea but the Rustang violates my no more than 2 seats in a car policy. Been running strong on that policy since 1986 and am not violating it now..

If I was going to give up the Z for something else it would be an 08 Z06...
