I was thinking the same, down here that won't even get 3rd place. Before i sold my PG 370Z Touring/sport. It was lowered, with still. gen 3's, still headers,berk hfc's, still CBE,hotchkis sways, 20inch Volk GT-30's, Stoptech BBK 15inch 6 pot front 14inch 4 pot rear, tinted tails and 35%tint on the windows,B&M short throw shifter,uprev tune,JWT light weight flywheel/clutch,still pulley,still headers,uprev tune. I didn't even get a t-shirt. This was in the summer of 09 so the 370 was still pretty new. I swapped most of the parts over to my PW 370 and sold the PG Z.

[Liquid_G]

At the few shows I've been to.. judges see the intakes and immediately look down and see if they are connected to an intercooler.. And when they don't see one they have the "Son, I am dissapoint" look on their face.. As dumb as it sounds most times you need to be FI to be even considered.

[KaienZ34]

Yeah your right, you need FI and real BBK (not the stock sport brakes) crazy paint, wheels, bodykit, huge boom box stereo, etc.
