Just smoked a 350Z today!
 
Well, I guess my youthful exhuberance is still alive and kicking......I just came home from smoking a new 350Z on the 60 West Freeway here in California. He took off ahead of me but I slammed the gas pedal down and soon I was not only catching up to him but I was passing him. After it was clear who the victor was I slowed down and switched lanes....he slowed down too but he passed me on my left, lowered his window and gave me a thumbs up...I lowered my window and reciprocated with a combination thumbs up and head nod ;)

It felt like a gentlemanly race! All that was missing was the grey poupon.....but of course!! :D
I have no idea how fast we were going because my adrenaline was pumping hard! But, it felt real goooooooooooooooooooood!!! :D

I bought mine from my mechanic at Corvette Specialty of California. But you can go online at http://jdsperformance.com/index.asp?...nlist&inmake=0 and pick one up. They claim up to 22 HP increase but keep in mind those figures are often used as lure to get us to buy the product. I sense more power in my vette but I made other modifications at the same time I had the sensor installed so I cannot say with any degree of accuracy how much power was added by installing the mass air flow sensor. Hope that helps!
