lol it would be pretty funny to drive by your friend's and they think your boosted. And then get raped by 50 cars lol. My friends 350z would rock my life if we raced. But when I get boosted next year I'll rock his car

Then you woke up!

There's no way you're going to walk on a 350z, even after you get boosted.

I'll keep up well enough, I think I would know, my friend has a 04 350Z. I'm sure boosting with few other mods then increasing my boost I'd be able to take him. He's not that good of a driver thats why I'm positive I'll take him.

Man, you're funny. The 350z is putting down about 250hp. There's no way that boosting your D17 that you're going to make about 150whp. It's not going to be done. There's no way you're keeping up with him, or taking him, no matter how crappy of a driver he is. Your proof is here.

we went and dynoed the car...he got about 230 to the wheels...and he has 20inch heavy *** rims now...and he hit 15.4 at the track....you still think I can't take him? Unless he improves his driving skills on the 1/4 mile I'll take him....freeway or anything of course he'll take me boosted or not

also even though they hit 14.1 or 13.9 whatever it is stock. It's NOT that easy. When we went to the track about a few weeks ago there was this asian person who paid 15 grand and he installed a full twin turbo kit on his 350z it looks real nice, but you kno what the problem was? Traction he had no traction he couldn't floor it, he was hitting constant 14.7's 14.6's all night.
