How far do you think the Z could be stretched BHP-wise? (if and when a turbo comes out)

Im considering exhaust and cold air intake, and I do think if a turbo become a financially viable option I would consider that aswell. I know some people think its too much but i'd like to take this car to the performance limit.
Take a look around the tech area. We already have lots of data on what mods do to this car. Nobody has released turbo- or super- charger kits, but it sounds like there are at least one of each in the works (a TT kit from one vendor, and perhaps a roots-ish supercharger design replacing the manifold from another). I don't think either is nearing release yet though.

Personally, I think the Z will be where I want it to be just with simpler bolt-ons and a tune.
