A few om buddys have corvetts and we have fun with our cars. I also enjoy the 370z for spirted driving as i love the handlng.
Im not very good at pushing the car for hard driving as i lack driving skills but i have the most fun on the drag strip.
My real drag car is the 350. With the GTM 4.2 and the 850ttbb, it going to be a real terror on the 1/4 mile track.
The 370 has a date with a buddys GTR. when i get the GTM SC on it i fully expect to take him down at the 1/4 mile track, It should go 11.6.
Up here a gtr cost 109,000.00 plus tax 13% and all the extras that they charge you on top of the car.
For 1/2 the money I intend to take him down as well as some GTR car sales men.

Has the GTR been chipped yet? Im curious as to how much more power and TQ a GTR would get with the turbos chipped. A single turbo gets about 50 hp and 80 tq with a chip. Of course that would void the "if you spit out the window you void your warrenty" from nissan.

You don't chip turbos. The amount of turbos you have does not mean anything when it comes to power increases. As a whole, Nissan's warranties are far better then most manufacturers.

????????? my A## you dont, Ive had two turbo cars and had both chipped. Got around 50 hp and 80 TQ from the chip. You gain more from a chip on a turbo than a NA car and it sure as hell means more power and Nissan sucks with their warrenty stuff compared to most others.

No.

You can modify an ECU to change an engine tune. But most of the power your getting on a turbo car from a tune comes from increased boost and timing changes. The amount of power you gain depends on how aggressive the tune is and how much boost is added. It dosnt matter how many turbos are on the engine. And if you think Nissan warranties suck then you are clearly naive.

Well Duh, thats called chipping. Dude Ive had numerous cars from numerous companies and Nissan really does try to get out of warrenty work. I dont know what cars you had but all my others never worried about my car being modified they just fixed it even if the modification caused it. And if the two turbos are differnt sizes and you have them both tuned they will increase power at different times hence more power from the two than the one. So you are saying that the companies out there right now making TTs for the Z really only need one to get the same power? So the GTR can take out one of its turbos and still be just as fast?
