Default 350z

I met a guy yesterday while getting my car detailed who had a new 350z, real sweet looking (black) cool guy and all. he said that it had 375 hp , i asked was it turbo? He said yes , so I asked him to pop the hood , he did , he sated that the turbo wasn't visible it was done via a chip?? Now I am no nissan expert but I never heard of this before . Anyone know about this??

there is no such thing.

and they do not come from the factory turbo, however greddy has fabricated an 18g twin turbo kit for the 350z, if he had that, he'd have alot more than 375hp...

It may have stemmed from me talking about smoking one before, I guess hearing a 15k 97 camaro is faster can hurt some prides??
