Looking to get close to 300hp would be happy running mid 13s. Motor has 79k. I got a 57 trim T04E,6 puck clutch fidanza flywheel, 370cc, 255lph walbro fuel pump, Turbo xs dual stage controller, new FPR, SAFC II, got great flow to turbo and down am running an intercooler. Is 10psi out of the question or reasonable.

 

Im running 7psi with a t3/t4 with a 60 trim and that was good for a 14.1@101 with a 2.8 60ft. thats easilly a 13 second run with some tires that arent rubber bands and i am running. with good tires hell its easilly in the 13's slicks well into the 13's.

 

I wouldn't imagine that VQ and VG respond all that similarly to boost, and with differing suspension/tires/etc track times aren't too comparable between the two.

 

At 9 psi i dynoed my VG max at 276 tq and 271 hp. that was with a much larger hot side. but the numbers should still be comparable. and if your worried about your VG at 10 psi dont be. As long as your afrs are in the low 11s or hight 10s, and your total timing is around 21-22 degrees your fine. right now i daily my Stock VG at 16-18 psi. just watch your afrs and make sure some timing is pulled

 

Yep... I've got over 55,000miles on my turbo setup.. with a total of 236,000miles on the stock engine!
I run 12-13psi every day. I beat the hell outa my car. I maintain it just as much as I beat it... but still... VG's are almost idiot proof!

But you at least have to follow the normal boosted guidelines if you want it to live.
A good tune will make the diffrence between a engine build or a dependable driver with power.

Im at 300whp/291wtq at 10psi, this was with non-working 00vi, non intercooled (but with meth/water injection), 370cc injectors, was on stock maf then, ran 13.8 at 106mph, 2.2 60'. Iv done LOTS of things after that, im still at 10psi, but with working 00vi, bigger maf, better a/f tune and wastegate tune, wrapped all my piping and turbo(makes huge difference). it feels ALOT faster than the 300whp dyno, so i estimate to be at 320-330whp at 10psi, by the way my car is automatic 4th gen, so on a 5sp, its higher hp.

forgot to mention, i have a T04b full size turbo. .69ar turbine / .60ar compressor or vice versal forgot lol, and its a rear mounted turbo

 

thats good stuff right there. you meant 320-330whp right

 

hey Streetz, did you upgrade your tranny at all?

 

I did tranny cooler, mobil 1 atf, and drop resistor, thats all.

 

or u could do a 3.5 swap and do that all motor. id say get an EU, afc doesn't know when the car is going under boost. not a real tuning method with boost. and methanol is good too, u can actually make a home made kit instead of buying those expensive kits online. and for the 1/4 mile as stated, drags and a nice 2 step launch control from the EU would be best..

 

do what with the 3.5? 300HP all motor? lol i dont think so

 

ahh it has been done before grass hopper. 300+ to the ground with the drivetrain loss of a 350z tranny. snoop around on the Z forums..

 

300whp, all motor? i dont find anything on that, just speculation. unless its a stroker kit, but then it wouldn't be 3.5 anymore.

 

Its definitely possible to break 300whp on a 3.5, but ur talkin on a built motor, def not something cost-effective when you can just drop a snail on the bish and turn up the boost, LOL. Come on the people that do it spend quite a few thousand dollars to break 300whp.... w00pti-do to them! The dude that dropped a rigged RMT on his 3.5 max spent less than 1500 total and he can push WELL over 300whp at the turn of the ****, lol

Not to rank on NA, I love my NA power, but it just doesnt make sense to me to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to make 15whp with cams, say ~5-10whp from higher comp pistons, etc... when you can just turn a BC dial and make so much more (as long as the tune is good of course).

Either way, NA is OT from this thread anyways, he's askin about boost in the boosted subforum, no need to bring up NA anything here.

 

LMAO. i wonder where you got that mentality from lol. about a few weeks ago you were all over the n/a idea lol till I had to convince you that turning up a boost controller *** is alot cheaper and effective lol

 

hush j00!!!! j00 no speak of dat!

 

 

Sounds believable, their 3.5 community is incomparably larger than ours and we've hit, what? 270whp?

 

I dont care what anyone says . Boost is so much easier to make power and most of the time cheaper than all motor. Yes it is cooler to say yea i got 300hp on just the motor but how can you tell me that if im ahead of you. All motor is cool but costly. Boost can be costly as well but most of the time it is cheaper. Hell if you want real cheap power buy some juice and there ya go.

 

^^

 

Don't get me wrong, id rather have a boosted car. once you go turbo its hard to go back. and not to get into the price game but i do all my own work so some of us save money when others think its expensive. BUT back to the subject at hand. cheapest way to make a fast car faster...

 

Couldnt argue with you there man. it really is 700 for 125 hp there is no comparison.

 

actually dynotune sells a good kit for 400 +1

 

your forgetting about a warmer, gauge and fuel pump

 

Thank u. Most people dont factor in the rest of the things you will need to have a consistant N2o kit. You may be able to get a kit for 400 but then theres the purge kit, bottle opener unless you like to get out to open and close, blow down tube is a must, and a warmer. Its always nice to have a n2o pressure gauge as well.

 

Then a wideband, an AFC, colder plugs, slicks or dr's, and the list goes on lol
oh and the weekly $30 refills lol

 

U r right . but like i said no one thinks of that . Its still cheaper but not 400 cheap.
