Plus if he did, it would be on Hoosier slicks and with a giant wing and a splitter, so the results would be nigh useless. There's a quarter mile thread that has more what you're looking for in it. Good luck. Last edited by Sh0velMan; 03-20-2014 at 12:12 PM. |

The percentage of Z owners who care at all about quarter mile times is very, very small. When most people here mention a "track", it has corners.

I have no doubt on his 342whp a Dyno is just a Dyno , some of the same exact brand can read higher or lower. What count is the gain on the same dyno. they dyno 370z at 275-280 stock . 342 is only 62-67whp gain this also include their Z1 modified Intake manifold that proved by itself gain in the higher powerband of about 10whp. then they also mentionned at that time thye played with the VVEL and saw minor gain if I recall so im not totaly impress with only that 62-67gain there is even more to be found with that stock engine. |

I tend to think Z1's dyno (where that car was dynoed) is inflated as hell, this isn't being protective, this is me pointing out that, with very few exceptions, those of us who spend the time and money to heavily modify these cars don't waste our time at a drag strip trying to break **** for no reason. Furthermore, unless you have an autobox, the launch is the major variable with the car that makes quarter times nearly impossible to really compare from car to car. This is a hard car to launch if you don't have the bitch box and most folks don't waste their time trying to 'master' it. Do what you want, I seriously couldn't care less, I don't have these headers. |

Your question had a pretty douchey tone to it, so people responded in kind. Had you phrased things differently, people would have been more friendly to you. You've got 12 posts here, it's a little early to be calling BS on guys who actually use the car as intended, on a track with turns.

I live my life a quarter mile at a time. What is this track with corners you speak of?
