Forged Performance: 2011 G37 IPL Bolt On Upgrades

Today we had a customer bring his low mileage, mint condition 2011 G37 IPL from Chattanooga Tennessee to our Marietta Georgia location to have some first-round bolt-on modifications installed. The owner purchased his car back in December and has managed to keep it absolutely spotless yet bone stock. After almost a year he decided it was overdue for some personalization to set it apart from the rest of the stock G37's on the road. We installed the following:


• Stillen Gen 3 Dual Intakes
• Stillen Grounding Kit
• Samco Radiator Hoses
• Greddy Oil Filler Cap
• Greddy Radiator Cap
• JDM Tail Lights
• GT Spec Strut Tower Brace


Because this specific ECU ROM file is not yet supported, Sharif downloaded the factory ROM file and it's being processed by UpRev as we speak. In a week or so, we'll invite the customer back for an FP Spec Custom Dyno Tune.

yeah I scratched my head at that one. Why were the throttle bodies removed?

Looks like the IPL badge on the engine cover makes the GT Spec strut bar clearance even closer.

But engine bay shot looks all finished up.

+1000 on throttle bodies off and using a air compressed wrench to tighten the sensor screws is a bit of an overkill IMO
