I eventually got it to 11.1, and my tuner rode it to an astounding 10.8, but even HE missed a shift the first pass. (Shifting for tens with 500+whp is not as easy as a stock 'slushbox' Z.)

Back on Route 1 at home, I had some MILF in an auto Murano stab the throttle against my Subi from light to light. She killed me because I was pausing between shifts. (Read Chris' quote...) 10-second Subi p0wned by a soccer mom.

Hence, the switchover for me. I LOVE it.

BOY_RACER, errr... 370_RACER, you have much to teach, but MORE to learn.

Just sayin'....
