anybody know what the highest reving vq out there is and who made it, is it fi/na? and what kind of numbers is it putting down on paper

 

my hr

its putting down about 280whp

 

im more curious if a 10k redline exist on a z let alone is even practical in theory

 

One word. Boom!

 

A VQ motor can be built to handle 10,000 rpms. However, it makes no sense to rev a motor that high unless it continues to make power that high up.

 

IF the valve springs are better/upgraded this is not true. With my motor I am "setting" my rev limit at were the motor stops pulling/making power. Looking at how well the ports are on the stock heads, I would image the stock rev limit to be near the limit with stock springs. Just my two cents.

 

LOL beat me to it.

 

When you're getting into that kind of revs, there's an awful lot involved. Will the rods hold up, rings, etc.?
Although, I'd kill to hear the 18k that the F1 cars pull just one time. I'd never look at another woman. (well. maybe not.)

 

f1 cars go up the 18k rpm ???what are there engines made from a gxsr
cant the vq be tuned to make even power to a 10k reline

 

I'll spare you of the grammar **** comments. So tell me, how deep are your pockets?

 

Current gen F1 cars have 2.4L V8's

 

800 horsepower.

They are limited by the rules to 18k. A couple of years ago, they were at 20k.

 

Here you are, but uneconomical though unfortunately

...this looks completely affordable! Only revved to 9000 though...

 

Throw a 20B turbo in your Z and you can have your 10K rpms!

8400 here

as mentioned - what exactly is the point of the arbitrary 10K? Why not 10001?

it is an absolutely out of this world sound to hear it up close

 

what goes into building an engine that can stand 18k+ rev limit

 

alot - of everything
money, brains, time, skills
