He DOES NOT WANT FORCED INDUCTION.. Although it's already been posted, people keep saying the same thing... Boost, boost, boost... I mean come on.. Are we not able to read nowadays? Sure FI will always make more power, but it's not what he wants.. If he has the money, let him do the build up. Japanese aftermarket has built 300+ WHP NA Z's so why can't we?

He understands the fact that this will cost alot of money!!!!!! Jeeez, is it ok for somebody on this site to think differently then the norm ??? He wants to surpass the N/A goals that have been set forth (regardless if his might be a little far fteched) and I think that it is a great idea. There is still alot of uncharted measures to be taking with this engine. We understand that N/A is not the way to get the best bang for the buck. I believe he is trying to see the VQ at its fullest potential .. maxing out N/A. If he's got the money let him do what he wants .. we need more poeple like this on the site .. rather than following the herd ... we have seen your FI pages and heard your results, we have seen countless TT set-ups, and now id like to see an alternative path. After a few ppl reach the mile stone of upwards 300 whp .. who knows what we may discover ... none the less its not your car or your money .. so enjoy and appreciate the build for what its worth or dont say anything at all.

Basically your looking to make GT3 hp/cc. Unless you figure out a way to rev and flowlike a GT3 its not going to happen. I thought at first you wanted 400hp crank. Thats possible but very expensive. You may want to see about the VQ40 block for a cheaper Stroker option. Typically, stroking the engine is going to hurt your ability to rev the engine high so stroking the engine is a step back from that perspective. Good luck with it all.
Edit to adjust the HP/CC rating.

I wonder how good a 600hp boosted motor would handle a road track vs a lightweight 350 N\A. My guess is that the N\A is gonna dial in and actually give it a good run for it's money.
That's the same reason I'm looking to do N\A as well. You are much more exclusive at 350 N\A rwhp then at 600 boost wrhp.
