less than $7000 + 450whp is what I'm praying for with supporting mods of course. Sure a TT will get you 500whp but not the gobs of torque the SC's will give you.

Yeah, the right sized turbos can give the VQ pretty damn good torque. Greddy's 370Z TT puts out solid torque numbers even at a modest 6.5 lbs. of boost.

That's at 13 psi with 100 oct fuel...

Then 513 --413 91 oct....

Your also comparing one SC compressor to two TT compressors..... Twin turbos spool faster and creat less lag than a single turbo.If the TT only came with one Turbo then I am pretty sure the SC kit will dust it.... I asked sam how much PSI can the rotrex unit put out...I am pretty sure if it puts out 13 psi of boost, the HP level will be more than we need (probably close to a 9 or 8 psi TT setup)... Let me check out the SC dyno chart....one sec.

Budakai, why would you imagine a TT kit with only one turbo? Why would you launch and/or land at 2750 rpms in a race?

So maybe I'm just completely wrong here but for about 15 years I have thought that TT was Twin Turbo... Now I'm sure its just me but wouldn't the phrase "TT" and "single turbo" not go well together in the same sentence...Please educate me here cause I am lost on some of the stuff that was said in the past few posts regarding "TT" and "single turbo"

So Kyle just dropped a bomb on the stillen setup, 400+ wheel horsepower with an auto G37, and the car is running smooth and efficiently, I think somebody needs to step up their game!

400 rwhp will be great. 420 to 450 a dream come true.
Have any of you guys driven a 370 with 297 rwhp. I have and with 4.08 gears in a 7 AT its a terror.
Try launching the car and not spin the wheels in first or 2nd gear at the track. There is no tractkion on the stock 19 inch tire.
With my set up its going to go 11.6's at the track with the stage 3!
I just love all the negative remarks out here about both the GTM and the Stillen.
How many of you guys are actually going to buy a GTM?
I did.
Its going to be a stage 3 rotex with a few bolt on, and im going to heat treat a few of the parts so that intake charge is cooler.
Sam's working on it as we speak.
I told him that i do not need it till mid summer.
It will take some time as it is a very time consuming project on GTM's part. R&D takes a long time when you start from scratch.
From the progress that i've heard its going to be a very nice kit once he gets past a few minor difficultys.
Holding on to 370 with 500 hp, you guys better learn to drive or the car may have a short life span.
It will be way faster than a 350z
If any body with a stillen set up is in Ontario Canada at the Ontario Z Drag day at St Thomas Drag strip this summer. I would love to have a grudge match drag race with you.
The time slip and the lights and the end of the track will settle all the wonderful disscusion about which one is the faster and better kit.

Not if the two drivers' skill levels are different.

I totally agree, especially on a really cold day. The Z gets really loose when temps drop below 20 degrees. I was hot rodding my z around and I took a corner and punched it and the car kept going straight!

Just got the rims Volks T-37's
18 x 10.5 with 305, 35, 18. MT drag radials 11
There will be no traction problems.
And a speed force racing VB with 2900 stall torque converter coming soon .
(not sure if there will be a kit to fully build the 7 AT )
Im only a crazy ______ when i run my 350 with the GTM 4.2 , wolf 850 ttbb's with a Speed Force built 5 AT. The build is going nicely.
Still waiting for Sam to ship me the 3 inch exhaust.

Well that throws a monkey wrench into the idea of proving which SC kit is better with a drag race, unless the Stillen SC'ed Z you're challenging has the exact same supporting mods and is driven by someone with the same drag race skills you do.
