Hey guys is time to make this baby run like it looks....



Going back to the shop on tuesday for a Vertech Supercharger, i got a great deal on this used only for 200 miles.





I would be expecting this baby to make at least 380-390 hp with a few more upgrade i would like to be on the 400 hp and i'm fine, i'm not trying to kill my selft. If you know what i mean.

you want it to run like it's driven by an attentions tarved 16 year old?

sorry, I am an A-hole, but that was just too funny not to say

anyhow the SC might get you to 400 chp but it likely won't make more than 350 to the wheel

Now the you mention 350hp to the wheels, i have a question.

Why is it the when ever you looking the review for the 350z it says that is 287hp however you put it on a dyno and all it show is 225-221 around there??

Between the crank and the wheels you lose about 20% of the power on average.

because nissan like everyone advertises crank hp, but it takes hp to run accessories like the power steering, and to turn the trans, driveshaft and differential, so you end up with more like 240 at the wheel, and some dyno's read higher than others, dynapak's tend to read higher than mustang, the idea is the have all comparative dyno's done on the same dyno, and automatic's taek more power to run, the trque convertor is heavier than a clutch and you have to power the trans pump
