i agree wtih Zlover but when you say theres no point to forged internals, thats not true if he is gonna be shootin some major nitrous, otherwise i agree lol

 

oh and (i dont know if possible) but couldnt he raise the compression in the pistons to and then yeah i dont know. just ideas haha, i hate to see people put down like that even though your mostlikely right.

 

Not safely... raising the compression any more is going to put him in the realm of needing race fuel permanently. And, like I said in my post, I'm not trying to be a dick... I'm just trying to provide the info. And I never actually put him down.

 

we didnt lean anything out actually, just played with the timing a little and played around with the MFI, ill get the dyno chart the next time im at the shop..


maybe i am shooting for a lost cause..

 

i believe that after a good amount of work 250 whp may be achievable.

heres a thread to follow about getting the most out of your n/a

I didn't mean to "sh*t in your wheaties" or anything... if you truly want to work towards a 300rwhp NA 300ZX, more power to you (it'd give other NA owners a lot of hope and pride)... I just wanted to direct you to the realism that it has never been achieved, but it has been attempted. This way, if it doesn't work out, you might still be able to say "I have the highest horsepower NA at 25Xrwhp or 26Xrwhp" instead of feeling like you actually failed at something (because if you are attempting something that is nearly impossible, it's not exactly "failing" if you don't reach it, you just have to be happy when you're relatively close).

For what it's worth, I thought the setup on my last Twin Turbo would've done nearly 500rwhp... turns out, the best it could do was 431rwhp (I wasn't willing to push the boost any higher). I was extremely disappointed at the time, but any Z expert more experienced than myself could've told me I was being very optomistic. But I began to like at it on the bright side, and as far as I know, I had one of the highest horsepower stock intercooled, stock catalytic converted Z32's in existence. Not to mention, I dynoed the most horsepower at that particular Z meet.

 

im not giving up on it, but im gonna have to choose between about 250 N/A HP or the massive amounts of TT HP. propably just go TT on my N/A.....when the motor blows...
