EQT Stage 1 R vs 319whp 370z and Evo 10

[Sleep7R]

Just got my tune and wanted to see how it is, so I hit up my friend with a modded 370z to cruise around the local roads to lure some racers. It was a fairly slow night, so we ended up just racing each other for the most part. On highway pulls we were pretty close to even. On a 2nd or 3rd gear pull I'd generally win with a car or bus length on him. On a 4th gear pull we were pretty much even. From a dig I'd win even with my launch control being messed up (launching slower than stock due to torque limiter). 1st gear we're about even, and then I pull hard in 2nd and 3rd.

On the way home, I came across an Evo 10 racing a Miata (I know). At first I drove by them while they were lining up and they didn't seem to notice me. I watched them get on it and waited until they were next to me before I floored it. Passed them both. Then all 3 of us lined up and pulled on both of them, though the Evo kept it pretty close up top, staying right at my rear bumper.

Now I'm wondering what my horsepower's like. I haven't dyno'd, and still need a DSG tune which will hopefully solve my launching woes. Anyone have any guesses as to what numbers I'd be running to pull on a nearly 320whp Z from a roll? Granted I probably have loads more torque. I've attached his dyno sheet.

My guess would be 320 to 340 on an EQT stage 1.

EVO 10s are surprisingly slow with basic mods.

Would definitely be pleasantly surprised. Though I know EQT states their Stage 1's get around 320-360 whp, so I shouldn't be. Just that earlier Stage 1's were pushing closer to 305 whp, so I guess everyone's improved their numbers a bit since I last looked into it back in 2016 (even most of the Stage 1 dyno vids on YouTube show around 305-ish, but they're all 2-3 years old).

EVO 10s are surprisingly slow with basic mods.

Yeah, I think they're similar to the STI in that respect. Just those old engines not taking to mods as easily as newer ones.

A stage 3 IS38 is pretty maxed out at around 380 HP on pump gas.

Yeah, that's not bad at all. I'd definitely be happy with 380 to the wheels. Sadly we only have 91 octane here in CA so I'll probably top out at less than that.
