isn't the compression on these motors like 11:1? I wouldnt run more than 5-6 psi

 

The GTM system can run at 8psi all day... I think...

 

yeap all day

 

this engine will handle 500whps allday

 

All day err day

 

ok engine will take 600 but what about the 5at tranny? Serious question here.

 

^ Dont think so... Heard it'll handle up to 400 though...

 

hmm interesting....im new to the VQ37 but not new to turbos. I was running 15psi on my stock motor miata through a 15g turbo but the compression was much lower. Does that turbo kit you guys are talking about have a thicker head gasket by any chance? to lower the compression? I know that when I had my 350z I saw a bunch of them blowing up with the stock greddy turbo kit which was 5.5 psi so thats y im really concerned about the VQ37 lol

 

the 350z motor is a piece. weak internals

 

the only thing that goes out on the drive train is the clutch

 

i know the 6mt is fine with the HP not sure about the 5at

 

I've personally seen a 350Z that had gone through about 3 engines running the Greddy TT... Sounded like it was about to go through its 4th when I heard it running... He'd never gotten it tuned tho so that's where he messed up big time... I've had a 350Z running the same Greddy TT Kit pull on me like if I were sitiing still... So yeah, when you TT, BE SURE TO DO IT RIGHT!

 

Ya always the answer i get every time. I don't want to be the teser for ths but i would think 400-450 would be ok any thoughts?

 

i would say the tranny would be fine regardless of 6mt or 5at

 

just have to change the clutch and flywheel
