According to this site: https://calculator.academy/whp-to-hp...tor/#f1p1|f2p0
400hp is only 340whp.
Most of us with basic boltons and tune are 10 or less whp away from that already and we weigh less. 
Edit: Unless the new Z comes out with underrated hp of course.  |
I don't believe that will be the case - with that torque that the new Z offers - it will get to 60 much faster than a FBO NA 370z. For instance (believe he has his story on here as well) Noir winded up doing a Q60 Motor swap - and even having a boost leak - he was beating FBO Z's by busses. I get what you are saying - the amount to buy the new Z vs keeping one that is already pretty quick (quick/speed is all relative) - but I don't believe a FBO Z would keep up with a stock Z with the torque and the HP advantage. Just my .02
