I kind of agree, but at the same time, power will always trump all... The weight of a full blown turbo kit isn't going to add 500 pounds vs the 200-300 extra horsepower you'll get.



At speeds close to 200MPH your bigger issues SHOULD be aerodynamics, BRAKES, TIRES, and gearing... Does anyone know if the theoretical top speed of the 370Z is even 200MPH? I would assume the gearing wouldn't allow it because of how short the gears are...

Google provided me with this:
Top Speeds in Different Gears (6MT)

Again, that's just based on math... I doubt the car will go that fast though...

God bless the crazies in Germany that want to take their 370Z TO 200MPH... I wouldn't feel safe, nothing in the car is designed to go that fast
