I said low to mid 300 whp...a SC alone will not net you another 300+whp by itself. Sorry ... not happening.

Thank you!
His story just didn't add up, I know all day long you will find deals like that, where somebody died,or somebody went of to war , etc.

I know that because that is how i got my mint 86 turboZ that way, I brought it off a guy whose son was shipped off to Desert storm at the time,son wanted to stay in europe after his campaign was done, needed some cash , so told his pops to let the car go for whatever. Pops was a older gentleman , and didn't know too much about cars , so he sold the Z for cheap. I needed a Daily Driver as i pumped money into my 94 TT Z to make it a highway cruise missle. Wanted my daily driver to be something in the Z family , came across that particular 86 turbo Z with low milage at the time for 2k bucks when those cars were going at the time for 6 or 7k. Made out like a bandit!

I think you are both arguing the finer points of a car that doesn't even exist......

Great BS story though. If it had any truth to it, the dealership would have snagged that car right out from under you, so this is about a BS as it can possibly get. Once you threw the Supercharger story with the dealer, you gave the entire thing away. HAHA

The story-killer for me was the dyno sheet.

What Granny do you know, who would comprehend/understand/care w.t.f. a dyno sheet means?
