GT-R R35 Plenum Test Fitment on my VQ37HR

ChrisUR · 01-13-2012, 07:40 PM

no problem, I see your point !

what I will do is test the GTR manifold on my car first for fitment, etc. Then I will dyno my car which has the stock tune on it but already other mods like CAI, catback, NST pulleys and compare before and after installation.

If everything fits and the car runs perfectly with the new manifold I will ask one of my friends who will dyno-tune his car with catback and sport cats next week to stop by and have the GTR manifold installed.

He will then go to the dyno again and measure before re-tune, then re-dyno-tune with the manifold and have another dyno pass.

I hope that is what you are looking for !

I apologize for not having at least a ball park figure for you currently but today I don't even have a clue how much the fabrication of the flanges plus welding will cost me, so whatever number I give you now I might regret later.

Plus we have never installed at least the (not build yet) prototype so it is possible that during the installation and testing we discover that additional small parts are needed which I will put in the package to give you a real complete bolt-on solution as good as it can get.

Please bear with me for another couple of days - we are almost there and my plan is that before end of January the final product and installation package is ready to be build with prices and dyno results.

No worries bud! Just wanted to see if anything had been tossed around yet.

Nice to see that someone who is undertaking this project actually showing Progress.

Can't wait to see the final product.

only a quick update - I have currently about 25 cnc companies I wait for a price quote for machining the flanges, etc. - hope to start production by end of the week.

meanwhile the fuel rails have arrived - we will start to modify them for the 370Z tomorrow !
