Agreed, the 370z does not do a good job compression braking. My belief is that this is so the car remains quiet and does not do the rumbling/backfire noises during deceleration. I'd bet it can be tune in but the car will start making more noise when you compression brake. Personally I'd accept a little noise from the exhaust pipes for better braking. It's a sports car, it should be able to compression brake.
