I put 100K on my Z daily driving it and loved every minute. Now I feel I am truly doing it right by building it for the track. I expect at least the same, if not significantly more, enjoyment by treating the way it wants to be treated

Are you putting it together yet or still disassembling it

I think I’d of been better off making the G a track slut than spending the money on the turbo kit. It’s awesome, don’t get me worn, but anything over about 450hp at the crank is a waste. Could have saved a lot of money just finishing the suspension and spending the rest in track fees.

You just need to drive it more and get your money out of it. I am enjoying every bit of the 718hp at the wheel I drive around on. The only frustrating part is when the gas station runs out of E85. I refuse to go down to 12psi of boost and run 93 oct. LOL
