No room newhere... its tight with just the VH45 in there.

I hope that VH has updated chain guides

yeah we did that before we originally put the engine in.

Rob - Remember the BAD Q did WAY more than that at 6 psi. The VH responds VERY well to FI.

I'll venture 370, without emissions crap and on good gas.

I'd be wary of exceeding 8 lbs, but that's just because (to my knowledge) it's not been done before.

I have to go with plain math. Volumetric efficiency is darn near 100% without FI. With 7 psi boost you can expect almost 50% more HP at most, say 450 at the crank (with better tuning than stock). What you back off for losses is open for interpretation. I used 25% (337.5HP) cause I'm trained to like my margins. If you can get losses down to 20% that would leave maybe 360HP at the wheels.

I think you're crazy, but in the best possible way.

VH R33 put them together, you've got yourself one hell of a Nissan

Also, project looks good thus far, but one question: Isn't the supercharger outletfacing the wrong way?

Freedoms lost are seldom restored.

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have" Thomas Jefferson

"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms . . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes . . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." Cesare Beccaria, 1767 (Later quoted by Thomas Jefferson)

The boot is just painted body colour and all un needed wiring and sound deadening removed as with the back seats and so forth. The car is getting a full cage to comply with our drag racing rules over here. So far all that is left is to finish the fuel system, machine the pulleys, and wire up the computer when it arrives as its not plug and play. Oh and repaint the ugly looking parts of the engine bay.

Thats if it's a true 7# ... and not a 7# pulley.

If it's a 7# pulley then you will see about 5.5# of total boost with that oversized intercooler.

Cool.

I have seen this car in the flesh and it is awesome ... sounds soo good.

nothing beats that V8 rumble

Fred..

Your the man! I'm going to say right around 375 at the wheels!

Thats a serious setup! I like what I see! And I know you bought the huge *** cooler - because down the road the motor is coming back out, and getting FORGED, right?

So we can see 12-14lbs of boost, and 450+ WHP

I wanna see some videos of this thing drifitng already, and the sounds she makes - must sound beautiful!

Hehe, yes yes i do. The people on these forums helped me out when i first put the engine in the car... there just isnt anyone in australia that knows much about these engines.

Almost done:

hehe yeah it was sent away to the people that are buiilding the ECU for it so they know what the outputs are.

Or, even better...
Is it an aftercooler?
