Friend just got a 370z and he is faster than me... He continuously walks away from me at higher speeds. For a stock 01 Cobra with just Flowmaster mufflers, what upgrades can you suggest that would let me walk away from him?
get 4.30s, race from a stop cause roll races are lame. you will destroy him. end of story.
x pipe for a little more power up top, and gears to start you off the right way, and I imagine you should be reversing the outcome of that race.
Should I get 4.56 gears? I have a T-56 Viper with .5 O/D that I'm about to install in 2-3 months when I do my 5.4L swap.
The 370Z should NOT be walking you. *PERIOD*
Have your car checked out.
I'd say do a tune up on your car first of all, then start with the bolt ons.
A full bolt on Cobra should be easy 12s, but being stock it's no surprise he walked you.
uh oh...
I changed the plugs and seafoamed it about 8 months ago. I've put about 3k miles on the Cobra since then. What else do you recommend as far as a tune up is concerned? I'm going to replace the fuel filter also.
I had an x-pipe on my old 01 and it sounded good but was only worth about 2-3 hp (n/a car).
it means it doesnt have any cats. check out your emissions testing/inspections laws before you get rid of your stock midpipe though if you do go the O/R route.
