There was no mention of a few changes to the stock internals to the VQ in his post....... Stock engines which could handle more power? Thats the answer I gave him.

Way to type buddy
Well

The high compression ratios of the VQ 3.5 are definitely a concern and when introducing forced induction to a car not set up for boost from the get go. This would be the reason that all of the turbo VQ 3.5s are safely run at low boost like 6.5psi. If the internals were better & they were not running such high compression ratios out of the 3.5 VQ we would be seeing boost numbers in the low to mid teens correct?
Yes, it would be easier to get more of the power out of the VQ35 if the compression ratios were lower and the rods weren't designed specifically for fuel efficiency.
I have to go.
Well sr20den my shift is ending at work I have to go. But to be honest with you all I know is from what I read I have no personal experience with boosted Maximas but I am gaining intrest. I will be looking through your old posts to read what you have to say. I often come to the org to learn something & come up empty. You sound like you know your stuff & I probably could learn alot from your old posts. Nice talking to ya.

...yea i'm still a 4th gen fan even though i own a 5thDidn't ALL 1st, 2nd and 3rd gen Maximas with L series and VG series engines have more torque than hp?
