Was I surprised by the results? YES. I've driven a 370Z. I figured it would run straight up or slightly behind a stock SRT-6. Only losing by a car to an SRT-6 with an intake and exhaust is extremely impressive.
That N/A 3.7L can do everything our 3.5 S/C can do and more. Oh, and the MSRP is about $15K less. Extremely respectable. Insane value.
For 31K getting a new car that can pull a low 13 in the 1/4 and a .99g on the skid pad. That is fast as hell. Why you pulled the Caparo T1 into this conversation is beyond me.
So a simple pulley swap on the N/A 3.7L will yeild as good as or more of a hp increase as it would on the 3.5 SC motor?
