While VVEL dose a good job, I Feel it is holding back the Tq. Don't get me wrong. The Tq comes on strong and Fast and stays, but it nothing like my old 2006. My 2006 N/a had more Tq then my 2011. My 2006 did not carry the Tq throughout the Pw band like my 2011, but peek numbers where better.
I would like to see a 3.7 TT /w Direct injection @ 500Hp and a lighter weight in the next Gen Z.


dropping to a 4 cyl would be a slap in the face to the Z name. the whole car is based on tradition/heritage of the original as you can see up til now 40 some years down the line.

a factory boosted 6cyl is what needs to happen. i mean they got a turbo on a juke and they cant fit a Z with a couple?
USAF_troop and DEpointfive0 like this.
