No. You will not get 90+ from just a tune. From a downpipe, cai, and a tune? Yeah, that's reasonable.

Keep in mind though -- even with all of that, you will just be touching what a 370Z has at the wheels, stock.

The Evo X is a great car -- don't get me wrong -- but if you are really looking for "big power" it is still going to cost you some major cash. You hit a wall around 330 that requires an investment to get past.

I'm not getting into this argument here, though.

It's a great car, but both the STi and the Evo are -not- the heroes they once were.
