A couple things to keep in mind when adding boost to this car:

1. It ain't gonna be cheap. Most people say it is around the 8-10k range to get it done the right way, properly installed and tuned. I guess if you can do it yourself you'd save a lot in labor, but I wouldn't recommend doing it unless you REALLY know what you're doing. Going forced induction puts a lot of stress on the motor, so you don't want to mess it up.

2. There is definitely a limit on how much boost you can add without having to replace your internal engine parts with Forged (lighter and stronger)pistons and rods. That will add even more $$$ to your budget.

3. Speeding tickets will also add to your budget!!!!

Hey guys, I'm in Clinton Township, my parents live in Sterling Heights so I'm over there a lot too, I have a blue G35 coupe. I used to work at the Auto Zone at 13 and Dequindre so you might have seen my car out there if you were in the area. I hope there will be a G meet sometime this year

Have seen your car quite a few times at Autozone VQ35Safi. I have a silver 04' coupe with black OEM wheels.

Do any of you guys need any parts? I have some Coupe wheels, sedan clear corners, sedan DG painted corners, DG Sedan roof spoiler, XM radio with free subscription, X ZSpeed undertray, Sedan trunk mat and a couple other things I am probably forgetting.

Oh and if you see this car, it was mine and I kind of miss it just a little, but I missed boost more.

Yeah, tell me about it. I usually don't mind winter, but this year it has been ridiculous. I can't wait for it to warm up so I can finally clean the G and put the wheels back on.
