Well, I removed the plastic undertray and fender liners to see if that would aid the oil cooler into getting rid of the hot air stuffed in the engine bay. After doing 3 back to back pulls, oils temps only hit 240. I went and gave a friend a ride and he said it felt faster than my G35 (it trapped 116mph). I went home with a smile on my face.

What are your thoughts on turbo'ing the VQ37 compared to the VQ35? Not the power/speed differences, but the power delivery? Drivability? response?
