The Z runs an 11:0:1 compression ratio which is not the best for forced induction of any kind. I know there are many Z owners driving around with 450-500whp but the real question is "for how long?" I personality will be upgrading to the GTM stage 1 shortblock, and will feel much more comfortable about driving my car. I'm shooting for alil over 550whp.
