In pretty much everything except the 1/4 mile and 0-60... (Lack of 6 extra pistons!)
The Z stopped better, handled better, slalom faster, etc...

FWIW, I am sitting at 296 WHP on my 07 z 6mt with Injen dual (ultra long-tube)intakes, Stillen HFC, and Bassani exhaust. Not even a tune yet. And that's on a SAE corrected Dynojet.
I have high hopes for the 3.7. Can't wait to see what 370 owners come up with. |

Need to get those torque numbers up!!!
I want to see around 280Lbs torque! That motor revs good, but I want to see what low-end numbers can be pulled. Has anyone looked into a heads/cam package for this motor yet?

According to the this link the dyno pull was done on a "Mustang" Dyno and it read 344rwhp from the mods listed. Doesnt sound right at all imho. Dont really care about dyno numbers, I care more about the track mph. That will be a good indication of the cars power. That will seperate the bs from fact. Would love to see this supposed 344rwhp G run the 1/4. It should have a trap speed of around 108-110mph + imho if its really making that kind of power right?

I think he was inferring that it might be an auto trans instead of the manual transmission. Automatics are typically less efficient than manuals, hence more power loss through the drivetrain (lower wheel horsepower)

too much torque though will get you spinning to nowhere.. (although I think I'm gonna have to start quoting you with that one)
