This is more then a emanage ultimate

This is basically a Standalone unit, IIRC.

piggybacking is nice, but standalone is a whole different world and really can unlock the VQ35s hidden potential

This unit is badass!! I haven't really looked at its potential, but it doesn't look like one can alter cam timing with it though.

Nevermind. Just read the 3rd bullet.

it should do everything you can imagine.

This price is actually good...considering the standalones for the 350z go for $2,100

Standalone on a VQ35 can easily unlock anywhere from 20-40whp depending how you tune and mods

So I can easily Justify $1,900 for that amount of HP.

Hell I can justify $30k on a VQ35 engine build I am doing.

Yeah!! $30K for an engine build is a lot!!
But compared to what it costs in events like NASCAR. $30K ain't ****!!

$600K per race car per event. Steep price tag for fake racing.
Overpriced IMHO.

Maybe for the standalone.
Would you justify the price tag on the UIM or the turbo?

The Kinetix was $1000 new at one point, so if this actually proves to be more effective then what we have and actually dyno better numbers then any intake manifold setup we have, then sure. I see it for $1,200 btw


and the turbo kits at $5k is about right. as long as it has everything yeah, thats about right. Serious Turbo guys will spend about $8000, just ask chern

but as a good point...those heads intrigue me...same kind of specs as the cosworths but 1k cheaper...damn

Some nice stuff on that web site ... If someone had a boatload of money they could build a sweet engine for the 350z.

I am assuming Speedforce Racing, made a Custom PNP harness for it, the 350z connector won't work with the 02-03 Maxima's, they didn't switch over to that connector til like 04-05.

That's less than half what I paid for the HKS VPRO. Haltech is a great ems. Don't ever buy a Z. You'll sh*t your pants if you think this is overpriced.

That is actually a great price for that unit. A standalone is way better than a piggyback. However, you have to be serious about power to justify spending that much.
As far as the turbo kit, it can be done cheaper there is no doubt about that. I have learned from experience that cheaper is not always better though.
