HHR SS vs 07 350Z
So my friend and I decided to do a spur of the moment 20mph roll. His HHR SS, which only has a very mild tune vs my 350Z which is now sporting a Cobb canned tune.
He feels his HHR with the tune is faster than his supercharged Z24, so we decided to find out. Now for some background, his Cavy will give the 350Z a hell of a run, usually ends up with me winning but only after tracking that little bastard down on the top end, the Cavy has tremendous bottom end.
So we decided on a 20mph roll, due to the temperature both of our tires are hockey pucks. Also we know the 350Z has the dig advantage being RWD. He picked the 20mph roll as I'm pretty much game for anything and we were doing this for science!
Anyways, he honked us off. At 20mph, I'm in 1st gear at about 3300RPM which is a nice place to be for me. His HHR is an auto so he had his pulled down in to 1st as well. When he honked it off we hit it, miraculously we both had traction. I instantly pulled a couple cars, hit second and kept pulling. By the end of 3rd gear I had at least 6 car lengths on him.
I honestly was expecting a closer race than that since he was thinking the HHR was faster than the Cavy. It was fun though, which ultimately is all that matters. I think if he actually spent the time going through the tune and throwing timing at it and such it would be a close race. He just basically raised boost and disabled the TQ management so it is just a very basic tune.

Spur of the moment. There was no time for that
Yes, LD9 with the GM M45 supercharger kit, tons of meth and a tiny pulley. It's pretty nasty for what it is.
Feel free to install a camera system on my car and I'll post you videos everyday.
