Default yellow g35 engine bay + preliminary numbers

Well, my car is done and awaiting pick-up.

http://www.yellowg35.com

Since it was last dynoed, I had a modified 350Z APS 2.5" TD exhaust put on to replace the Tanabe exhaust.

Current mods on the car:

-APS ST tuned to ~ 8 lbs of boost on 91 oct gas
-APS Plenum
-APS modified 350Z 2.5" TD exhaust w/ Tanabe exhaust tips (requires an 8" extension as well as 3" extension to the exhaust tips)
-Scott Performance Camshafts

I was told the car is hitting 418 rWHP on a load based Dastek Dynamometer. I intend to take the car to a traditional dynojet to see what numbers I pull. My previous dyno on a dynojet before the turbo was 240 rWHP and 220 ft-lb of torque.

Here are some pics of the engine bay courtesy of Ted and Scott Performance.

Love it, hey if you don't mind me asking how much did the paint job cost? I am trying to figure out what color I want my car and what body kit I am going to use. If you could either post it or PM I would appreciate it.

Damn Vinh...looking good man!

Definitely like how you painted your engine, plenum, & piping for your APS kit. All you need now is the matching Pi-Thon caps for your brake, washer, & coolant bottles . So they modified the APS exhaust so you can keep the Tanabe tips? I'm assuming you kept those cause it looked better w/ your rear bumper, correct? Or is there another reason for it? Can't wait to see it in person hopefully in one of our future meets.

they needed to extend the exhaust tips to make the exhaust fit the G35.

i figure since they were gonna cut off the original APS tips, might as well go with tips more to my liking. Couldn't find anything else, so I kept with the Tanabe tips.
