His car will move, regarldess of the stereo/anything he puts in it. I calculated his power/weight using his weight from MIR, compared to my weight with the twins now.

Brent = 5.1 lbs/hp on race gas

Me = 5.5 lbs/hp on pump - Alberto <----to broke for a fuel system upgrade and race gas tune

Brent, SICK #'s man. Thats Nucking Futs! Really glad to see you'll be getting her back. I just wish you weren't gonna take it down to FL so fast. lol Ahhh, well I guess some of us might have to road trip it down there to see your car first hand. Anybody wanna take a little VACA? lol

To Sharif and all you guys, girls, and dogs down at Forged. Keep up the good work. Its nice to finally see someone step up and take the reigns for all us Z tuning hopefuls. Look forward to seeing more amazing work from you guys.

Breant once again CONGRATS!!!!!! You deserve the #'s after the most arduous journey for horse power in MY350z.com history.....i guess you found a way to combat that extra weight from the stereo huh???? Next on the list?!? IMO a custom one off wide-body that looks like the xanavi GT500 car but on a roadster...that and giving me a ride would be nice!!!!

Sick numbers B.

Sharif and the Forged crew...you continue to set the bar on the east coast. Great work!

The irony of "666" is killing me. Welcome to Hell's Spawn...

You must run race gas at that PSI.

It isn't higher then 620-630whp. The 18g's start loosing efficiency right around 23psi. When I was buying my wastegate relocation kit from CarV2 they had already tried this.

I'm pretty sure this is the highest HP daily driven VQ on the road. Probably the 3rd or 4th known/proven highest HP VQ car.

Very cool to see someone finally take it to the 700 DJs, by the looks of it, your not too far from the 800s. Were the turbos out of breath here or could you have taken it further?
Congrats Sharif to yet ANOTHER amazing job. Bambam you are a lucky man


If anything I would think the TD06 turbines would be nearing the limit of their flow. The 60-1 compressor wheels are rated at 57 lb/min max flow. Should be good for high 900s if not 1000 WHP depending on other factors of course. That assuming the Td06 turbines can support that amount of exhaust gas without choking and causing backpressure. It would be interesting to see what a pair of 62-1 compressors and larger T3 turbines could do... Maybe someone will make a TD0X to T3 adaptor for the Greddy kit one day
