3.0 turbo Z on the way!?

I love when dragon ball z comes up in threads awesome!!!

If Nissan starts to go for more fuel economy with the future z's I could see it hurting them more then anything. Traditionally every time they did a model change so did the HP. Every time the new z had more power and has "according to Nissan" been faster then the previous one. So if anything they should just keep the z on course and stay away from the fuel economy turbo bs IMO.

If anything, I think they'll give it turbos to boost both fuel economy AND power. Decrease displacement (anywhere from 3.0-3.5 L), direct injection, and turbos is what I'm predicting (hoping ) for the next Z. Something around 400 HP should be good to keep it more in line with the 5.0 and Camaro.

Not necessarily true... Twin intakes and the A7 were designed to improve fuel economy. In the end, we gained both economy and power advantages. Wasting more gas doesn't always equal better power output. Look at the mustang 4.0 vs the 3.7 as an example. I'm sure with turbo tech nissan can harness 375hp without gas mileage dropping from where we currently are in NA form. If anything we might even gain 2mpg's on top and bottom???
