Ya, after we pulled over I rolled the windows up and had the ac on... noticed it was on blast when we stopped. The only other thing I have noticed on the car since I got it is that normally there is a slight bounce at idle when I am stopped but only with my AC on.
So my assumption would be belt unless anyone else has any ideas.
Possibly even ATF? I should probably flush that out soon since I am in the low 50's.

umm according to estimates and tunes, we are looking at about 245 whp and about 270-275 wheels torque but with a really nice Flat torque curve..

my g was 349 whp and 299 tq. number wise, the MS3 doesnt sound comparable, until you think about the fact that a stock g35 rates at around 245 whp/230 tq, and a g37 is about 285 whp/240tq. (these are estimates, and also close to what my g got on the dyno and what i found on the g37 on numerous websites)

with a FMIC, full exhaust and catless downpipes, and a few other small goodies, i can prob hit about 280whp and about 300 tq i think, but i'm not. it's too much modification for me to be comfortable with on a newer car.

^^^ Those are still good numbers and honestly think that with your torque exceeding the HP, it's probably more fun to drive than any of our cars. Nice signature btw

The torque is awesome. I do miss the G a little but when this thing opens up a bit I probably won't. As in when u can start hearing the turbo. Cause right now it sounds na. I'm gonna autox it this month and see what improvements I need to make.

I've also always been a bigger fan of torque over hp.

Blew a rod straight through the block and that's what went though peng's bumper. $6000 min for them to put an engine with 115k on it. Brand new crate engine is $11000.

I will mang...it takes a little bit of time. You have to figure I'll have to watch the entire time you had the cam on..and then edit it...and then upload it. I'll try to start working on it tonight.
