Zen and the next level for Project Mothra
 

Ever since our first discussions about Project Mothra, people have been encouraging us to explore forced induction. But, after discussions of the "Zen" nature of true Japanese tuning and how it's not all about the HP, plus the amazing results we got from Smoky's tune on our car that added only 20-25 wheel HP, but made a world of difference, we were perplexed. Should we venture down the FI road, given we already have what is probably the most perfect 370Z setup imaginable? Or, if we do go that route, do we do it Mothra-style and really blow it out? What do you guys think?

Balls to the Wall!!! Take no Prisoners

You are asking us questions that only you have the answers to. :happydance:

I've just always wanted to say that.

TT setup. Please do it.

FI. The car looks like it has 500+ hp. You know the drill.

:iagree:

I think you answered your own question there, boys.

Make it something the entire community can be proud of.

Twin Turbo.

Not many takers on the zen approach, huh? We actually spent quite some time with John P. of http://maydaygarage.com/ who makes a pretty adamant argument for understanding the subtleties of true Japanese tuning. And make no mistake, Mothra is a potent beast now. The rush of power is immediate. Every single added drop of performance and power is accessible, almost by shear intuition. It's clear that The Master's work has made a difference.

That said, a Smoky-style burnout (by a professional driver down a closed-course that vaguely resembles Westheimer) by virtue of a few hundred extra horses might be fun, too. We just think maybe this car deserves a kit nobody's seen before.

It looks like you feel the same way.

Keep the comments coming on facebook: Project Mothra | Facebook . As we said, this is only the beginning.

Oh I'm all for the 'zen' approach. But your own website says you'd build a beast that cannot be contained. You don't want it contained?

Forced induction is the way to go :tup:

:werd:

N/A high revving if you want Zen. I would looove to see NA.... but I'd be pretty happy to see a built supercharger setup too. I don't know that I would like to see another TT built block car though...

Either way this has been a fantastic build so far.

I want this thing to have the GTM SDS installed, i wanna see some actual real world abuse testing done on this thing because it hasnt been done yet.

Go all in...

1000+WHP built plz.
