How much will you get from a turbo or supercharger with 10.5 compression? I thought they run better with 8 or 9 to 1 compression. I think N20 will work very well.

10.5 compression is no big deal. Turbo all the way. besides it'll be a lot easier to fabricate a turbo for it than it would be to fab your own blower. I've actually got this little bug to get a 350Z. I dunno why. I look foward to seeing your results.

They look a little better in person that they did on pictures, I'll give the new Z's that. I still don't like them though, nice power and everything, just don't dig the style.

Blowers take power to make power, turbos tap unused energy and make power.

Word. If you get the Z, hit me up. I'll make a trip down there to check it out.

I think my next car is gonna be a 91 BMW 850i. Still checking those out; not sure if I really want one yet, but they look tight as a bitch.

Don't think I'll be able to afford my Porsche GT2 turbo for a while.

Yeah, I wanted a s4 last year but ended up getting an A4 Quattro 1.8T instead. Before I got the Z i was looking at getting a RS6 but didnt feel like waiting till summer. When I talk to audi there was already a waiting list. Get a Z..
Peace
