You better get ready, i'll be ordering one from you as well sasha!

Tell me about it, I am in the garage working on the 370z stuff while my own 450whp beast is just sitting there, begging to be driven.

:tup:

I'm sorry if I missed it, but will it be absolutely impossible to implement this on an A/T?

I'm still waiting to see I this will retro to a g37 ....

Not going to work

Might just be longer exhaust side piping

I hope it's possible, wouldn't mind giving my car for R&D :tup:

Totally know how that feels, but you are doing worthy and awesome work :tup:

Hey
 

Hey Sasha just quit your real job already we got enough buyers to keep you busy and when will your kit be up for sale June maybe????

This will not fit the auto, the large oil pan is in the way. I also don't know if this will fit the G37. My 350z turbo kit will fit the g35's, but I have no idea if this will bolt up without issue.


I have a great day job, it still pays the bills, and supports Boosted Performance at times. It takes a while to build up a business, and make it profitable. There is only so many guys that would buy a turbo kit, but with the day job the money comes in every two weeks, not matter what. A family of four (have two kids, 7 and 9)will always will be priority #1, and the day job provides the security.

The business is growing fast, so you never know what will happen down the road.

This will have the same clearance on the G37s. The Y pipe connection/downpipe is a little longer but otherwise almost identical. Should be a minor mod for a manual G37s

:excited::excited::excited: I feel like I'm waiting to loose my virginity!

as i was happily reading through the each page and boom "does not work for auto"
:wtc:

give him time, he will get an auto at his shop and make it work there too.

[flame suit on, zipped, sealed...]

Why?

Take that flame suit off! No need for it here! haha :tiphat:

Aww man, I have an AT. Let me know if there are plans in the future to make something work for an AT.

I think Sasha has already made it clear that the AT has clearance issues with the oil pan etc that make it impractical to try and develop a mid mount turbo in automatics. It MAY be possible with some major modifications, but then it would no longer be what it is: a mid mount performance turbo with minimal flow disruption... sorry guys.

Bit of an update...not so exciding but I think you guys will take anything.. :lol:

All the oil stuff is done, oil cooler is installed for good, as is the scavenge pump. Turbo oil fed line is also complete, so the front bumper is close to going back on. I have to do a bit of intercooler pipe work first thing in the morning, so that I have a set of charge pipe (engine bay) to keep with me.

On to the pictures:

Getting the OE pan off, you got to use a hammer on this:

As you can see nothing is left to chance, all of this is top quality, built for performance and durablity.

Forgot to get spark plugs. Quick search shows that HKS part number: 50003-M40HL is popular. I don't think I will find these localy, any other part numbers? I understand that thay need to be set to about .035. Is there an NGK part number available?

DILKAR7B11 - Those are for NGK Iridium Plugs. They MSRP about $20 - $22 a piece.

I think these are stock plugs, correct? I would need one step colder.

I kinda skimmed through some of the thread and missed the clearance issue for the AT. The work looks amazing though! Keep the pictures coming. :)

Ahh most people just run the stock plugs, but you're right they're not one step colder.

That explains the lack of info. when I did a search. Only about 6 threads came up while searching "spark plugs".

I guess the OEM's are fine then if most people run them. I would assume that one step colder plugs are used for big builds, with upgraded rods/pistons.

The stock plugs in the VHR are one step colder then from the DE motors (rev and non rev-up).

Hope this helps! :tup:

My STS kit came with plugs and you know I dont know if they were colder or not I'll have to check

Any option to have cold side pipes powdercoated in black?

and cover up those amazing welds????? :icon14:

I am having mine done in gloss black

More stealthy even though the core would be obvious lurking in the bumber to any enthusiast.

That can be coated as well...personally the route I'd go as well. Stealthy :driving:

Yesterday was fuel day. Got the OEM plenum off (very easy to do) and removed the fuel rails (also very easy task).

OEM fuel rails/injectors ready for the new 750cc injectors with pigtails:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7273.jpg

A few minutes later, old injectors out and new ones in:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7278.jpg

With the plenum off, it was a good time to add two ports to it. One will be for the waste gates, and the other will be used on the BOV's. Removing the TB is a must, because there will be a good amount of plastic on the inside to clean up form drilling/taping. The TB is also very easy to remove, just 4 allen head bolts and it is off.

The oil lines to the turbo, viewed from the passenger side wheel well. (wheel removed):

Then it was time to start putting things together for the final time...first pipe going to the turbo:

Then #2 goes in:

Followed by #3, inserted from the other side (header):

Clamps are on, ready for the turbo to go in:

With all the IC piping done under the car, it was time to move up top:

All done:

Things to do:

-Plug'n play wire harness/relay for the scavenge pump (evening project)
-Fuel pump install (possibly today)
-Waste gate pluming/recirculation (x2 for the kit that stays behind)
-Go over everything and make sure it is good

Hope to get a base map for the 750cc injectors and UpRev soon, and then we start her up.

Can't wait to see the numbers!

James was over (customer/owner) and said I can take my time, he is not in a hurry to get the car back any time soon.

It will be a while...
















:stirthepot:

looking good!

Mid-September at the latest please

I just wanted to point out that the plugs you linked to are for VQ35HR engines. They are 1 step hotter than the VQ37VHR plugs. The correct plugs for VQ37VHR are: FXE24HR-11

Heat ranges:
VQ35DE = 16
VQ35HR = 22
VQ37VHR = 24

Work of art IMO!

Excellent work. Good photos. :tup:
