Sorry for the mystery: The project car is a customers 2008 FX35AWD with the VQ35DE engine. The project involves a Stillen Stage 2 supercharger kit and Stillen stainless steel cat back system.

The supercharger is a roots type running 6 lbs boost. Stillen dyno test results show a 110 hp increase at rear wheels. (The 2008 FX35 is factory rated at 275 hp) The install is 50-state CARB legal.

This project has been a lot of fun- every part is nicley finished and fit has been perfect.

A nice picture of the massive heat exchanger directly beneath the rotary vanes that will cool the pressurized intake charge

fitting the beast, it's a tight but perfect fit

Nice shot off the additional 7th injector to feed the beast when he's angry conditions

Yeah I know. Never been a fan of their 'power bubble' hoods or cowl for the G's or Z's. Too bad, I've always liked their SC's.

Thought it might be a FX but wanted to ask to be sure, thanks guys.
FX = can keep the OEM hood intact = big bonus in my book.

Looking good there Brian

thanks for correcting the title Andy

On with the install....

The heat exchanger system is intricate, with an auxiliary coolant reservoir complete with a pressure relief type cap, electric coolant pump on the left front chassis clip and a substantial heat exchanger mounted in front of radiator. We will be spend quite a bit of time making sure plumbing looks as close to factory as possible and use OE fasteners wherever possible.
