    I just wished I had researched more when I bought mine. I truthfully bought it o na whim. I just knew I wanted a Z with Hids, didn't realize all the different trim packages. I wish i had brembos. I got an Enthusiast though. Will have to get BBK eventually.

    onedirtyZ, from the looks of it you have a 287 motor so your putting down roughly 220-240 stock depending on tranny and breakin.

    and built ls2> built vq any day. can you get over 500 whp n/a on a vq? not so much...

    and do you want to do a high compression build? or building it for boost. im off to performance factory the end of the month and ill see what n/a monsters tibbs is working on :boobies:

    Yeah I may be doing some upgrades soon on my car. Thinking of going back to Forged for Meth injection and a few other little things. May be some good partouts coming ( Eagletangreen and BlackPearlZ ) so may do some shopping at ZDAYZ.
