First post!!

Just bought an 03 black G35 coupe 97k and hopefully going to last a while. Was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to get about 350hp na out of the VQ. Want to keep the engine some what tame haha not trying to go over the top or break the bank. Where would you guys start as of now... Pop charger is all she has.

 

SEARCH button can be your friend ijs people like to flame others for not searching first well welcome to the site

 

sorry, but it's not possible to hit 350hp through na. You won't even get to 300hp unless you do cams, all bolt ons and use a friendly dyno. If you're worried about breaking the bank, you've purchased the wrong car...

 

carbon fiber stuff definitely


but seriously tho. you're not going to get it(350hp) out of a vq35de NA. you might get that out of a supercharger tho!

 

there's a guy around here that built his engine n/a with forged pretty much everything with cams, ecu tune and 8k redline, 11.7 C/R and he got 312 whp. and he broke the bank with that. so..... you're screwed if you want 350whp with only bolt ons

 

NA with this motor is a waste of time. First of all, if that was your plan, you should have done better research BEFORE buying this car. Ever heard of the saying, "no replacement for displacement?" Starting with a v6 as your platform and this motor specifically? Not a good choice. If you're looking for something thats bolt-on friendly you should have bought something with a couple more cylinders and American.

You wanna get your panties wet with this car? You need to set your sights on FI and say bye to your benjis.

 

Damn you guys suck at giving advise the guy asked a question and almost got his head bit off!
heres the things you should do Intake, resonator delete that will put you up to 300hp then you can get a Pulley Kits get another 20-25 hp from that and if you really want to spend some more money get a Turbo

 

Good Luck!

Ricer math FTL...



The most BS I've read in a single post in a while.

 

Truth.

 

You need a turbo/supercharger for that. There's no such thing as bolt ons that can get you from 280hp to 350hp lol.. that's just unrealistic.

 

I'm pretty sure you can get a base power of 350 out of these engines. You will have to swap internals and it certainly won't be cheap. Better off just going FI. Pulley kits don't do squat.

 

x1000. If only you could add up the manufactures "claims" to equal your HP. Its about as good as bench racing.

 

But what is that cost to get 350hp (crank I assume you mean)? How many thousands of dollars to hit that 350hp mark? probably a few more than going supercharged.. I know that youre not advocating doing so, but just throwing it out there..
I agree pulleys dont do squat.

 

^I don't know what the cost would be. SC is cheaper which is why I said its better to just go FI. And yes, I'm referring to 350 at the crank.
