I know it's what produces the most power but I want to keep the Z streetable for now (meaning atleast the next 3 years). I love my Z and I have a hell of a strong motor, she made 296.4whp with test pipes only! That was the last of 3 dyno runs. Since then I've put on my homemade bazooka exhaust and LTH's. I think I'll go S/C but I don't want less than 450whp safely. I'm trying to decide what's the best way to go about it.
Why is a turbo not "streetable". Ok So I understand that you want to keep your LTH's, done. So that knocks Turbo out of the equation. Also LTH's make you lose boost on a S/C, so that is an "ify". So I see why you would want to go N/A. But trust me brother I don't think this is the smart route, but I could be wrong. Fitting those LTH's into this equation is going to be hard but not impossible. As soon as dreamer gets his B!tch @$$ on the dyno we with know more about if LTH's are worth buying if considering a sc setup.

I am forsure not going to beat a dead horse, so this will for sure be fun to see what a fully built VQ37 in the N/A mode can do. And I promise I wont take your dyno graph and the the final cost, and make a power to cost ratio

This might even be cheaper and faster than building a na VQ37
