Hey guys,

As most of you know, over here we dont get G37s with manual transmition, and i want to know if in the future when i want to TT my G will the AT handle the turbo?

 

It can definitely handle a turbo, but only to a certain extent. Even a manual can only handle so much without doing a tranny build.

TerryCS here has a 2nd Gen G35 Sedan, and he has twin turbos on a slightly modded AT, and he can boost up to 400hp on stock internals.

 

My g35 was an auto. My greddy TT did just fine. I did have a valve body upgrade to speed up the shifts.

 

Just curios why can't you guys have MT's.

 

you can do it. you will need to do some transmission upgrades. definitely recommend a valve body upgrade. also a transmission cooler and torque converter are helpful.

 

FI with 5AT in g35 right here, TWICE

FI in AT VQ = VB and Tranny Cooler is a Must.

Dont listen to other people that say you dont and you'll be fine, if you do I'll be waiting for your blown tranny thread.

 

Overall The RE5R01A Trans is a stout unit. With a minimum upgrades like the valve body mod and the a trans cooler, You should expect a good service life out of it, Even with a twin turbo set up, The key is to perform the valve upgrade as soon as or before installing the TT set up .

Below is a dyno graph for a G37 we are currently finishing up, It has our stage 2 turn key kit turbo kit ,Stage 1 valve body upgrade and our 2.5" GTM spec exhaust , The car made 455 whp @ 5psi effortlessly ...

Thanks for the input guys!


To tell you the truth i dont really know! they do have 350z in MT but not the G35/G37, i think there are a few that buys them over here, and they just got the ATs to be safe

Good to hear! dont want to be in that situation

WOW great results there, its good to know that it could be done with small modifications!

 

when you say in the future... how far down the road are you talking about? just curious. i'd love to see more f/i g37's... there's so few!

 

I dont know but it will be far down the road, maybe a year or so till we see some more TTs on G37s

 

Ahhh Sam my eyes!! Your killing me, must keep my hands away from Wallet and other hand away from calling you ahhhh. Haha great job Sam, as always!

 

At 70K when basic powertrain coverage expires, this is a mod that is without a doubt in my future.

We should have much more reliablility as well as tuning data by then, and Sam will have them at 40% off.

 

Good to know the results...

 

Those are some BADASSS numbers for a 5AT. REMEMBER GUYS, 5AT #s will be lower than 6MT. Its the 5AT vs 6MT difference. I'll let Sam explain that if anyone is curious.

 

what does this cost installed?
