Re: Putting back on the factory air intake

Neffster,

Thanks bro. I'm going to put the stock back on this weekend.

I don't mind a whistle, but this thing sounds more like a shriek at times. Not at all like the sound from a turbo in my opinion.

I'm seriously considering making a major investment soon (major for me) and installing the VTEC Supercharger for the G35. I'm not a track or street racer, but I just freaking love speed and power. And although I get plenty of it from the stock G, I can't imagine what the VTEC will do for it.

Before going FI, you might want to beef up the internals (rods, 8.5:1 forged pistons etc.). 10.5:1 stock ratio is pretty high for even 5 PSI with pump gas. I think you will blow up even with timing retard in place. The pressures/stresses are just too high.

I think you mean Vortec, not VTEC. Unless Honda is now "tuning" our cars... [img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]
