well this past weekend i got it all up and running.

specs

VQ35 block and pistons
VQ30 crank and rods
VQ35 heads with mild port and polish with VK45de titanium valves
JWT VQ35 cams
ARP head bolts
Lots of boost with the low comp i now have



I tested it out yesterday with 12 psi and it pulls real nice, boost comes in a lil sooner with the bigger displacement. I was boosting 12 psi in 6th gear @2800rpm

Dyno #s within a few weeks once i get everything setup a lil better.

 

What are the specs on the turbo?

 

currently running a t3 stage 5 exhaust housing (.63) with i believe a 55trim comp. I have a T04r waiting too go on it has same exhaust side but a 67 trim comp with .60

 

SWEEEEET....can't wait to see that dyno.

Make sure you get the Runviewer files this time PLEAAAAASE.

 

wow cant wait to see if that tiny exhaust housing hurts your dyno numbers at all, hope it dont 12psi at 2800 in OD is sweet what rpm does it hit in 2nd or 3rd

 

Stage 5 exhaust housing is good for alot of power (on my to4r its good for 720hp) and is better then the T4 center trash housing all the other guys use.

 

sounds sweet. get some pics I wanna see.

 

Man this all sounds too sweet, I might have to join the boosted VQ35 club soon enough

can't wait to see the dyno #s

 

How much boost are you planning on running. Congrats on the setup. Let see those dyno numbers

 

Oh Tilley, I am SO getting a ride when I come up. We should dyno the same day if you can get it running good within a month. And when you're not looking, I'm gonna steal your keys and go for a ride
Congrats on getting it running man, that's incredible. You running the JWT ECU? If not, I guess you don't plan on running to 7000....did you find a clutch that can hold the power yet? You getting traction anytime lately?
BTW- What IM are you running? Tweaked 00VI?

 

Congrats Tilley. How is the valvetrain holding up? Did those VK valves seal up nice?

 

How is throttle response compared to the higher compression VQ30 and VQ35's?

 

This motor revs unlike any other vq i have seen. once it hits 3.5k its like a rotary too redline.. I only have like 10 miles on it i havent had time too do anything with it.

 

Wicked

 

i will get video today i just have no way too host it.

 

I'll host it for you Rob.

 

I've been trying to decide which hybrid route I'm going to take if I do infact go that way. What would you attribute the rev-happiness too? Do you know the true compresion of this setup? Is it horribly low?

 

8.5to1 if you did this setup you could run one hell of a shot of NOS....I think its due too light weight valve train.

 

Tilley,

You're running a stock VQ35 intake manifold?

 

Can you also explain how one puts VK valves in a VQ35 head?

Have you told the 350Z guys yet? I bet they would be quite interested in that.

 

Now why would i tell them. They dont need too know. They arent easy too install and require alot of modifications

 

Hey Tilley, if I send you some heads and a check would you work them over? BTW i'm picking up a DEK motor from JAY on Sunday, I should have the POS running in 3 weeks.
Choray

 

How 'bout 13lbs and a small shot of juice? Is there still good throttle response with that low of comp?

 

Which intake manifold did you use?

 

Still good throttle response, you can feel that its a lil weaker under 3k but yet i think that is a combo of cams/low comp/VI wide open on the 2k2 IM

 

OT: Tilley: clean out your PM box. I need to ask you about some work I need done this spring (gotta get a budget now so I can afford what I really want to do- talk to Corey if you want an idea).

 

Why do you have it like that? Why not set up an RPM switch? Or is that still in the plans?

 

Oh they don't know yet?

 

whats up with the wall?

 

Rob no pics??

I can host a vid....

 

Cant do video anymore......overboost is my worst friend. I made a mistake when changin the plugs, i pulled the wastegate vac line and when i took it for a spin it was not hooked up so it hit full boost which must have been alot cuase it was insane sounding till it blew a rod through the oil pan.

 

 

damn dude.........

 

I feel like such a dumbazz. Oh well its always the simple things that get overlooked. Atleast i didnt damage the block.

 

Damn that sucks man. When do you think you will make it to a track?

 

wouldn't the turbo not spin more psi than what wastegate spring is in the wastegate? Or is it the minimum psi?

 

Nope, the wastegate never sees any PSI to open at, since the vac line was not connected.

 

10 char

 

Sorry to hear Rob. Wow so soon too...

 

awsome we need pics of the carnage oh and sorry for you misfortune but i bet youll never forget to hook that line up again
