Mod's: S1, cold air intake, adjustable boost management. Prothane inserts, STB. I like that intercooler you got meng. I want one.

the intercooler is prob the best mod i have done...it keeks the intake temps down like u wouldnt believe! makes it so u can run more boost safely..
this is a quote from a thread on the SRT forums after just getting back from the dyno...its made by a guy pretty local, used to b in Woburn but now in lower NH...no need for the CO2 with this baby!
"just got back from the dyno...and it defintely works.
Thursday I did my first run and got 247/264 with an intake temp of 120
then I reset the computer and got 256/285 with an intake temp of 160 (shot up like nothing).
Today my first run got me 260/285 with an intake temp of 113, Then I reset the computer and got 270/304 (272/324 the run before when it cut out at 4800 cause of fuel cut) with an intake temp of 112...the intake temp wouldn't go over 114 degrees!...the cold side was ice cold!, And the temp difference in the shop was 88 degrees thursday and it was 94 degrees today!!!
It is absolutely amazing how well it works. the guy in the shop couldn't believe it, said its the best efficiency he has ever seen...
Then to top it off, carversrt dyno'd after me with the stock intercooler and it started at like 120...then after 1 run it was 160, then after the next it was around 190 degrees!!!
I have the graphs to prove it, i will post them prob tomorrow after work plus carversrt & DaZone were there...so all in all, thanks ***** and i Highly recomend this intercooler!"

RE: What have you raced.......
Ok seriously...
I've raced, another SRT-4 and won (he said he had a stage 3 giggle giggle)
A Spider Eclipse
A Nissan Altima
And just today A Pontiac Firebird (He was NOT a Happy Camper)... (muwahahahaha)
I forget all Nic has raced before he went to Iraq...
One night we were on our way home and he raced something and stayed neck and neck with it and the passenger rolled down the window and said we were the first car to ever give him a run for his money... I suffer from CRS...

I actually Got ahold of a turbo 350z, a guy that was in another club around here. Anyway I'll keep it short. Their much faster than a regular 350z (up to 80mph anyway since my turn was coming up like 1/4 mile after the light) still beat him, but I didn't walk away like I did from the others. he stayed right at my back doors. Note although I ahve no idea what if any mods he had.. so they could be slow as heck, and he just thrown alot of money into it. Or they could be extremly fast and he was a horrible driver lol. So um ya.. nevermind, just my expeirance. ( I accidently posted this in the link RR provided.. WHOOPS misclick)
Edit: I think his was badged "Twin Turbo" from what I remember

"VQ35DE Engine
287 horsepower. 274 lb-ft of torque. And lots of aluminum. Track models and the 35th Anniversary edition, coming January 2005, will feature increased horsepower for manual transmission models."
A turbocharged version of this, not to mention a twin turbo version, would easily kill most SRT-4's even if they are modified. You better have an exceptionally bad *** SRT-4 to take something like that on.

RE: What have you raced.......
Friday night......I raced a "12 second" SRT-4.....three times. I took it all three races. HMMMM, twelve seconds huh??
He wants a rematch, a rolling 30mph race. I figuire this, I beat you three times, accept it like a man and keep working in your car.
I managed to rip the shift **** off on the third race shifting fourth.

You guys did race from a 30mph roll the second time. I still have to get that video over to you!! The second he couldnt catch you driving regularly i KNEW you were gonna take him. Though honestly I did think, by stats alone (I never saw Kotu drive) that he was gonna take you. You sexy beast...you drive so well!

I thought it was an old 350z, perhaps it was a 300z? I dunno, They looks simliar? Perhaps he misbadged it to look cool, just reporting it :/. As far as mach 1 discussion earlier they run mid-high 13's from what I have looked up this guy I raced said he runs low 14's.. bad driver?
