Exclamation GT Motorsports: 370Z Stock block testing, and turbo system development

Well our 370Z test car finally arrived, it is not easy getting one
of these right now since they are still so fresh. We are currently testing the stock engine with our GTM VHR Test pipes, and are also developing a 370Z Catback exhaust system. Dyno results will be posted for both once testing is completed.

Looks like we are going to build the first twin turbo 370Z, which should be completed within the next 30 days. At which point we will be taking orders for our GTM 370Z Twin Turbo system.

We are very impressed with the power this car puts out in N/A form, nearly 290rwhp! With test pipes and exhaust we should be over 300rwhp. This model Z is lighter and feels much tighter than the 350Z. This platform is going to be the ticket for road racers, especially with the available Syncro Rev-match on the sport models!

Enjoy the pics and graph, more updates of the progress to follow.

This is probably the first official Dyno results in the United states, correct? Thank you guys for taking your time to do this.

Nearly 290 RWHP? that's great. I can't wait to see what you guys have planned for this car.

Great pictures too.

FANTASTIC! Dyno results that are WAY better than I'd expected. I was thinking it was going to be close to 275. So if the numbers are right, and the engine is putting 332HP out at the crank, we're only loosing 13.7% of the power through the drive train and the wheels. That's freaking incredible.

This is a great platform, more power, less weight, and it feels so connected and solid.

Makes me want to go out and get one, but I will have to settle for my G

Thank you for the comments, and yes as far as we know, we are the first to dyno test the 370Z.

Much appreciated! Do you think you could ride a twin turbo base 370 with stock wheel/tire without traction problem (would prefer sleeper look, might put 245/275 on stock 18) ....how much for a base tt kit (that ill have intalled ; im far far. celine dion town near montreal canada ) you can pm me with details looking for 400whp with low spool time hi response

Nice solid gain with factory exhaust..... you think we can get a video of the exhaust sound with pipes. In the meantime your personal opinion will work..

Traction issues are going to be relative to how you drive the car, good throttle modulation is key. I would leave the stock wheels and upgrade the tires to an R-Compound for ultimate sleeper with traction.

Our stage 1 kit will deliver very fast spool time and will easily achieve over 400rwhp.

Maybe you can be the first Twin Turbo 370Z in Canada?

It sounds awesome, we will post a vid of the test pipes + our GTM cat back exhaust at a later date.
