Twin turbo setup

370z TT

I've always heard people with superchargers complain about how their cars have low topend power, and the tend to run the motors too hard. The supercharger is restricted, and I am not trying to offend anyone. Superchargers are a lot of fun for road courses and acceleration, but for topend speed turbos might be slightly better. I come from muscle cars so a lot of people with mustangs would supercharger their rides and be happy, but when it came to high speed racing they couldn't compete because they lost a lot of power in the topend. I do not intend to offend anyone because everyone has their tastes, and turbos require a lot more labor and tuning than a supercharger, so they are not truly cost efficient, but for the amount of power that is made, it is worth it.

370z TT your not offending anyone. I am just trying to keep you from getting flamed for FI "ignorance" so to speak. There is a bunch of good material on the Web that will help you with your understanding on the technology.

The website says its a 4.5L VQ35HR... not a VQ37... are they not planning on using the 370's native powerplant for these type of builds... or just needing to update it to reflect the newer engine? Or are they still in R&D of the 3.7L's capabilities?

He's still using the VQ37 block, just bored and stroked to 4.5L. The max size you can bore out the VQ (if I remember) is ~4.2L.

ChrisSlicks

I believe the VQ35 and VQ37 are the same basic block, the VQ37 simply uses a longer stroke. Everything else on the engines are different, heads, crank, rods etc.

If money is no issue, aim higher than 1000 WHP. Knock it out of the park. Where is the build thread? I saw you are no longer affiliated with Forged and ended the build due to financial reasons about two weeks ago. Less text/talk and more pics of build.

350z 1248 whp: YouTube - SP 350z 1248 rwhp!!!

ChrisSlicks

Don't believe everything you found on the internets. Did they post a dyno plot, no. They never posted their drag strip run either. If you play with the load settings on the dyno you can make it show all kinds of crazy numbers.

Ask and you shall receive. While you can do that to a dyno, I think the track time is the proof we need. Check out the video below.

I am a veteran of my350z and the Z car in general. I do not post anything without some sort of research into creditability. 1000 whp is no easy task. Throwing money at it is half the battle. So that is why I said while he is aiming high, he might as well aim for truly unchartered territory...1300 and up.
