The 350/momentum headers line up differently IIRC

It is hard to say to be honest. In theory, a set of VQ35 manifolds should work on the VQ37 with a set of DE manifolds, but that is the theory...

IMO the OEM 370z maniflds are great, and will support all the power you can throw at it.

So I tried something today with regards to the 350z manifold inquiry. I took the 370z down pipe that bolts up to the turbo outlet, and the second section that I built to make this kit compatable with the OEM exhaust, and bolted it up my own 350z...this section:

370z:

The same pipes on my 350z (exuse the stick, it is just there to hold the turbo up while I check clearances):

It was a perfect fit, and the turbo sat just where I would want it...same location as on the 370z.

This makes me think that a 350z twin scroll turbo manifold would indeed bolt up to a set of DE headers on a VHR engine.

Thought I share that..I was a bit suprised. The axle back exhaust flanges on the 350z and the 370z are in the same location.

That is great news for a lot of folks. Awesome. If the 7AT can work with whatever you design for it, you may have more business than you know what to do with.

Too late

I am up for an awesome promotion at my day job as well, so this will remain as a side venture.

Honestly......this made me tear up from so much happiness lol

Just an update for those interested in this kit. Here's a short video of the first start up after I installed the Boosted Performance turbo kit.

This was installed by myself (I have very limited automotive experience) in my garage with the car on jack stands using basic hand tools. Like Sasha has said earlier in this thread, if you can install HFC, you can install this kit. Installing my gauges was harder/more work than installing the turbo kit.

The car started first try and I only had one small leak on a pre-installed fitting. Easy fix. If you are at all worried about tackling this on your own, don't be.

Hey GaleForce

BIG respect for your own installation!

Good luck for the rest of the process

May the force be with you

Best regards from the other side of the world

VSS370z · 02-02-2013, 02:05 PM

Hey GaleForce could you help me identify the 3 specific Defi gauges you use for the stock location(they look sweet by the way), i could only make out the Oil Pressure one and the one on the left side? And were did you got them? Thanks

Great video too!
