But yea. It's the way power is deliveried threw the ban. I was getting my butt handed to me by Porches that had the same power as I did.
True but thats because GTR has A LOT more engineering behind every single little component of it. So that doesnt really apply to a 370z that has NONE of that suspension, torque vectoring diffs, AWD, super computing, etc technology. But like Shamu said I think the best way of doing a TT 370 would be to swap in the gtr powertrain. A set up that came that way from factory and will be consistantly reliable.

I ran with a 500whp stillen supercharged 370z at the track 2 weeks ago. Thing couldnt pull on me in the straights.

Allthough, if you can pull this off and the car runs great, I will be VERY impressed with ya. Your car is already one of the top 3 impressive 370s I have ever seen. Good luck!

No offense to Stillen SC owners but the kit has no TQ and unless you are talking a mile long straight that kit will not do much above a well built track 370z because of weight and power curve.
The TT setups will give Spohn better TQ, more power under the curve and with his heat management he will be fine. Will the engine last 5 years? Probably not, but honestly unless he is running endurance races he should be good for his track days.
