Topgunz - air to air upgrade

I prefer the one of Gates

The effectiveness is the same to keep the tension as long as you make sure you get a 3" OD idler.

I see no reason to overrev your engine for SC'd Z especially if your using a self-lubricated head unit. The max RPM of your SC has already set a upper bond. Below that you can simply change the pully setup to get the power you need. Be sure to not go overboard to exceed its compressor efficiency otherwise the heat soak issue will make you beat a dead horse.

What oil pump are you using?

I'm actually running engine oil through it, so the stock 370z oil pump. The company here in Aus who upgraded it did that so it doesn't have the self lubricated part anymore, that thing is crap haha, so I've tapped into my sump for the return etc..

Thought it would get a higher peak figure with the higher rev range and shift into a higher range for the following gears, probably overthinking it lol

So you got your V-3 converted into engine-oil-fed version from SL? Awesome! What oil feed/return kits are you using? Any links? Have you replaced the stock bearings with the H/D ones or...?

Yeah, I'll have to try dig up the invoice to show what's different.

Everything's been upgraded to better stuff like bearings etc. I'll be doing some pulley changes once the E85 tune is sorted on current gear, so basically it's had impeller upgrade/bearings etc.. it had the 9psi stillen pulley on it already so guessing 500ish wheel HP then see where the fuel pump/injectors are at before upgrading the pulleys. (I got the Aeromotive 340 and Idx1050's, so guessing pump upgrade needed here).
