The reason I ask these questions is to compare my past "seat of the pants" feel to what a 370sc might feel like.

A SC 370z could be as fast as a z06 I really think that if you took a ride in both cars the Z06 would feel faster. The torque alone would make it feel faster than the 370z SC.

I looked at a few dynos and I am not so sure I am agreeing with this anymore. The 370Z with a TT kit (I know, this is about SC...) is pretty strong in the torque department, even down low. I was suprised.

Now your talking about a TT witch will alway make more torque than a supercharger.The 370z with a TT makes way more torque that a supercharger. Where talking about a 370z SC here,the torque of the Z06 will push you back in the seat and would make the Z06 feel faster than the SC 370z. The most torque I have seen out of a sc 370z if 350 ish with the GTM SC a Z06 has 400 plus. I have also seen Stock Z06 do mid 11's all day at the track a SC 370z would have a hard time doing that.

I agree. SC 370 < Z06.

TT 370Z vs. Z06, I would like to see.

How do you know a sc z would have a hard time doing that? No one has actually gotten their @$$ to a strip yet that has one or at least they aren't telling.

also on the videos if you stop them both at 60mph and stop them both at 110mph they are within a second of each other.

I say the Z06 would win but it wouldn't necessarily "dominate" the z.

RCZ nice shot of inside of your car. A friend of mine has a 2006 400hp corvette.
He is putting the 596 hp edelbrock SC on it, Its a tvs 2300. What a nice package.
The RWHP should be 485 to 495 @ 7 lbs . depending on the tune. Now get that SC ported and polished and take it up to 8.5 to 9 lbs it will make an easy 520 rwhp.
That car will easly kill my stage 2 GTM. Total cost just under $9000.00 installed

The Stillen SC ran a 12.8? @ 113. My 370z 7 AT with bolt ons run 12.800 and traps at 112.7. Lets just say the guy driving the car could have done a better job of driving it.
Im hoping to go 11.7s with my GTM stage 2. The stock torque converter is killing my car and i now have a gtm 2900 to 3200 rpm stall converter. This should take me down to 12.6's with bolt ons. You guys should remember is easy to go fast on the street but its really hard to get a good time at the drag strip. It requires a lot of skill and you have to know your car and how it runs. I have run 13.35 one pass and a 12.80 the next pass.
If you run the 370z and do not let it cool down for an hour it will not run faster, it will go slower on the next pass. Heat just kills the 3.7 engine.
I feel that i would give a stock 400 hp 2006 corvette a good race at the track. It would be a drivers race. My 4.08 gear sets up makes a big difference.
You guys are going to have to wait till May 2011 to see what my GTM stage 2 will run at the 1/4 mile in.
Jnauts 370 z would eat the corvette at the track.

Well, he ran a mid 13@104 or something in stock form. You can't blame the trap speed on the driver by THAT much of a margin.

Like to see a vid of Jnauts - any in exsitance?
