TT or NA?

You got really think about what you want in all things. Boosting a Z is not cheap and doing it right will save you lots of money in the future. Sounds like you can't drive or want a manual so a mild build is the best choice, something around 500whp. Plan on spending 20 to 30k to do it right with all the supporting mods. Or save that money and buy something else. Most of us that built our Zs, either our self or paid for it and love the fact that we have one offs vs simply buying a performance car. Plusses are our cars have better performance than many bought cars, the cost to mod a more expensive sport car can be a lot more expensive, the cost of maintenance is less or equal, insurance and registration are much cheaper and every time I add a mod big or small I get that new car feeling again.

Also, in the sex appeal category the Z is breaks necks even when cars five times their value are around. At car meets or at the track people will walk right past way more expensive cars to talk to me about my Z. Many don't have a clue about value of a Z and their response is man it must be nice to own a $100,000 car. It is unique and I am all about that!
