Thats a good number! Sorry, but I'm new into the Z community. Who is GTM? Is 500+HP possible with bolt-ons/forced induction? How about the rest of the drivetrain (tranny, clutch, diff)?

Thanks

ive heard that the weak link are the pistions, so i would think the cheap way to get 550-600 saftly would be just to drop out the pistions and stick some good low compression ones in place keeping the engine in the car thus saving money?
