Boosted S2K vs. Stock 350z
Driving to the mall Tuesday night and I really haven't encountered anything since my turbo install....
Well, I noticed a 350z two lanes over. I didn't think anything about it and kept driving. I was still accelerating so I'm sure he heard the BOV at one point. My S is berlina with black powdercoated wheels, 5% tint... pretty much blacked out ( so you really can't see the gauges either) and at idle you would never know it's boosted, or at part throttle for that matter.
Next thing you know I stop at a light and my g/f says... "Hey look what's next to you." I looked and it was the 350z. He gave me a little rev and I just laughed. This was an opportunity to hand a 350z driver his a$$... I mean... he deserved it in my mind. He revved at me, so I said ok.
Light turned green, and I pulled off slow (knowing I wouldn't get any traction if I stomped it from a stop). He punched it about 3/4's through the intersection, so I did the same. Once I hit 80... he was 2.5 cars behind... maybe more... could have been more if I had traction the entire time too.
I'm not the type to pick on a ride that I know won't give me a good run. It felt great to show that driver what's up... especially a 350Z
PS - I had my GO PRO HD Cam mounted too . I just totally forgot about it. You wouldn't have been able to see anything anyways except for me losing some traction and pulling farther and farther away.
