if blakes coupe is still running strong and he is able to up the boost, I will probably hook up my A/C around April. Use my tax refund towards getting me a nice birthday present.

good deal. glad to hear it's happening for the cvt. As you already know, I'm not a fan of the transmission for reasons I could beat a dead horse with, but at least it's holding together. Pretty brave move to try it again and best of luck. My 6lbs. is going to be more around the 20psi range sometime early to middle of next year. Motor build along with new tune and I'm sure there will be plenty of other stuff in store.I was on the fence about selling my car if the motor couldn't be built to hold high boost, but it's looking like it's all going to happen.

You can do it, nothing will go wrong and with 6lbs of boost you beat a 3.5. hahaha

why would you think that? speed force has a rebuilt 3rd generation Sedan VQ35De... owner has put about 40K into the car, both the motor and the transmission was rebuilt... they just fired it up last week... early guess is ~ 550-600 HP at the wheels... I'll keep you informed..

in any case, just saying all that to say that with enough money, I think the VQ could be rebuilt to withstand whatever you throw it at... including the kitchen sink!

6lbs. in the 2.5 will be alot different than 6lbs. in the 3.5

The 2.5 will still lose.

Just got back from Blakes and WoW. First off, his exhaust is extremely loud with no cats to speak of. The turbo wind up sounds sick and the blow off is amazing. I even got to take it for a little spin and you can defenetly tell a big difference from the stock. My car felt so slow when I was driving it home. Plus got to hear about some of the new stuff coming out.

Kyle I want them.

hahaha, me and blake talked about this earlier. We may meet up this weekend and run his car against mine so we could see exactly how much faster it is. I will video tape the whole thing. Blake broke his camera on his little cruise.

hahaha, I havent seen it yet, I have only been givin a brief description. You should get all the info you want after the So Cal meet. Think of this as a christmas present under the tree. You really want to peak, but at the same time you want to wait for christmas so its that much better to open. If you peaked at every present before christmas, then there wouldnt be any suprise or excitment on christmas morning. So be patient and Stillen will make the announcment. There have allready been alot of hints thrown around by stillen so you should have an general idea and will get to unwrap your present after the December 13th So Cal meet.

Yea, its not really a secret. The new rear end caps are what Infantry it referring to I believe. Or a combination of things coming out of STILLEN soon.
