Are you guys running north of 600 planning on lowering the boost when it starts getting hot outside?

We have setup custom maps with the boost controller and tunes to allow them to cycle through to each boost set point with one touch of a button. We went a little more in depth with each controller and that mapping from UpRev. For the sake of keeping things a secret for our tuner, I will not go into the specifics of what and how we do it. Thanks, Tony

In the end, it is there money, they are big boys and girls and they have to choose to be responsible. That being said, let's give people a little more credit once they have spent this kind of money to actually respect their investment/car and our time that has gone into it. So far, so good! That's the kind customer you will always want! Thanks, Tony

![]() Now we're just getting curious where the limit is now. Everyone thought it was 450 ft/lbs or so. Now it's 100 over that. You've got guys knocking on the door of 700whp on a bone-stock motor. That's insane. I'll be the first one to run a victory lap if it holds together, and then I'll add fuel and turn up the boost. I'm really glad we've got people who are willing to gamble with their wallet that the motor can make big power. That's how we find out what it can really take. Quote:

Me and dirty are around the 3000 mark. I have been daily'ing the car in 80 degree weather on a 50 mile commute(each way) since Friday. Did my first oil change Saturday, clean as a whistle. The car is just as powerful as the day Dan@FI had me sit in it and almost **** my pants in it. So far, so good. I monitor Fuel Press, oil, water temps and oil press religiously....not a single fluctuation to date.

faceglide has put over 2,000 miles on his and he is one of the E85 cars. Here is the bottom line...Efficient parts, adequate fuel pressure and proper tuning will allow you to push the envelope higher. Sure, is there a point where too much is just too much for the stock block, absolutely. That being said, up until our kit NO ONE was making these numbers on our psi levels, and to add, most people do not bring adequate fuel pressure to the equation. Lastly, we have one hell of a tuner who stops at nothing to make it perfect. It also helps that he tunes the Z34 almost every single day. Remember, when we set out to do this we wanted to build not only the baddest kit around but it needed to be the most efficient. The results are a byproduct of the design. Thanks, Tony

Terribleone(?) was the test car. I'd assume he has quite a few miles on it by now.

Well the response has varied and to be honest I really think the community should be excited as a whole to see the possibility for the z34 take on and crush the likes of the supra and most v8's.
No matter what is under your hood, you should be excited. With the advancements they have achieved in not only kit, but fuel, tuning, temperature, the vq37 is quickly becoming the most formidable thing out there under 50k all said and done. Traction aside. I was taken back by a few of the responses but for every doubter there are 10 supporters. I am just excited about the future and want you all to be too. Its a double edge win. If it blows I get to chase 1000 sooner, if it doesn't, well the vq37 has stepped into a new realm of awesome. Next oil change I will be inching up boost after an oil analysis. Sometime there I may take it to seb Or at least on the z car garage dunno just to get a good look at it with the added boost. This will go on till next January where all bets are off and my built block is good to go. If things pan out how I hear them to be...there will quite a few 850+up z's roaming relatively soon. What is there NOT to be pumped about. Sent from my LG-D950 using Tapatalk |

We're not knocking FI, the kit, the tuner or your car. We're in ******* awe at how easily these things make previously unheard of numbers. Now we just want to see where the wall is. It's going to be a FI kit that finds it, since no one else is making that kind of power. Every car that comes out breaks the stock block record, and then the next car breaks it again. That's insane.

This is just too fun. I cannot even write my review because I just love this car and cannot just resist taking it out and raping apes to stop and take a few photos and vids lol. Got about 300 miles in my drag radial setup. Who wants some launch vids? I better get them out before hjo steals my thunder. Excited for you bud!

This kit makes me wonder if it makes more sense to go this route than swapping in a high-displacement N/A engine. I'm thinking, for the track, No.... maybe someone who sees the track regularly will buy this kit and give us some results to that effect. One can hope!
