In this thrilling episode of throtl, the team takes on the challenge of transforming a humble $300 Nissan 300ZX into a roaring beast with a jaw-dropping 600 horsepower. With a hefty $30,000 investment in their fully built SR20 engine, the stakes are high as they head to Apex for a Dyno test. However, their journey is not without its hurdles, as they encounter issues like missing hood prop bolts and loose intake manifold bolts, showcasing the gritty reality of tuning projects.
Amidst the trials and tribulations, the team unveils their latest 300 ZX apparel drop on thr.com, a limited edition collaboration with BC Racing.

Despite this setback, the team's spirit remains unbroken, fueling their determination to push the boundaries of performance. The episode culminates in a cliffhanger, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats as they await the next chapter in this high-octane saga.
