Shariff isn't this just barely higher then what that 07 convertable dynod at? Didnt it get like 244hp before you put the EVOTT and test pipes on?
So is the concensus that the VQ35HR and VQ37HR are pretty much equal, with the VQ37HR having a little bit better powerband or something(would liek to see a comparision)? I mean it must got something on the HR cause of that VVET or whatever it is...it just supprises me that with the 2 extra liters your not seeing more of a peak hp difference.

Wow, that G37 looks amazing, looking forward to seeing what you have in store for her.
EDIT: Are you planning to shave the rear emblems? I think that would look really clean.

Either way, she wont be at 250whp for very long, so I dont really mind either way.

You think theres much more more potential in the 3.7 vs 3.5HR? Seeing that your choosing the shop car to be the G37 over the 07 Z. Maybe they tuned the G37 much more conservitly.

I think the 330bhp claim might have a been a bit optimism. Either way, she wont be at 250whp for very long, so I dont really mind either way.

Would it be possible to overlay the chart with the dyno chart from the stock 2007 Z you dynoed a while back? I'm looking at both the G37 & the 07 Z and I'm trying to decide if the 3.7L is worth the extra 8-9k. Thanks.

I have to say I was hoping for more out of the 3.7. There goes swaps and part changes.
