mad props on the clean-ness of this car

Just your basic Z3 kit and a big intercooler. Only other real mods are roller rockers, HV3, and exhaust mods.

SpeedDaddy Intercooler. Nice piece for the price, although it is big so it takes some hacking of the bumper support.

I am sure it isn't setup to sound the best, but I just wanted to get back there and make something.

I will say, I dont care for the 04+ Grand Prixs...But god damn, that is a good looking car, inside and out.
And as odd as it is, I like seeing the intercooler behind the grills too, things huge.

You and Drunkie might just convince me that they are good looking cars XD

115 mile an hour trap's is 11 sec. power.. Your car is a great reason why people should stop wasting time with the M90's and just build mild turbo set up's. Your doing this all with a z3 set up and a rather stock motor. I'm sure 120mph trap speeds can be had with E85 and a little tune work. Tim and the guy's at zzp do great work with their box tunes. Your car is a fine example. I'm still thinking you need to cut a little weight and make an all out track pass some time. Report back with your times.

Thats a nice ride. wish i could listen to it. where the f did you find a ram air hood for your car? Ive looked everywhere and come to the conclusion ill probably have to make one

Thanks for the kind words. Not all 04+ are ulgy!
It was a tight fit under there, but worth it as it helped in performance vs the little one I used to run. People must really see it on the street though. Not too many takers when out looking for trouble.

Thinking I will make an attempt with as much of the interior out as I can. I am not 100% set on the fastest ET, just want the car to be fun on the street. I was stoked when I pulled the 115mph. Hoping to see 120 on the current setup, as I figure I could make a race out of most cars I run into on the street then.

Turbo is a no brainer if you can swing the funds. Cost vs performance over the Supercharged builds is worthwhile IMO.

I have some sound clips I can post up when I get home.
PFYC.com has the hood. It is called the Inferno.

Ive seen that but i figured you had to get the whole kit. I just want the hood. and Id have to repaint that as I dont have an orange car. I think it may be cheaper to just make one. that way i can really make it custom. think im going to buy a hood or find a scrap, take it to school, strip it, cut it, mold scoops out of fiberglass, and paint it. Maybe ill do a cowl induction. whatever I do Ill post pics in the future

The hood is $699 and come in gel coat ready to be painted. The orange car was one of PFYC's show cars.

ah richeous. I may be able to custom one for the same amount if not less lol

My favorite car on here. Period.

Thanks

Couple vids of how it sounds. Not my best run but one vs. Swarzkof. No launch out of the hole and then spinning until I left off into second.
