As many of you know we(DSport) were trying to build-up a high horsepower T-Trim Vortech setup for the past year and unfortunately we were unable to complete the project. I want to apologize to all of the DSport Advertisers/Sponsors for putting up with this time consuming project, I truely appreciate you product support and I promise the car will be featured as soon as possible.

I have been dealing with Jim Wolf for the past couple weeks and he has decided to sponsor our DSport G35 with his JWT BB700 Turbo Kit and C2 Cams. I cant tell you how excited we are to be working with Jim, he is a great guy and is a guru when it comes to the VQ and its FI capabilities
The installation of the kit and cams will be handled by Steve Mitchell at M-Workz in Gardena, CA. I will hopefully be upgrading the to ARP L19 Head Studs and Cosworth Headgaskets.
After the installation is complete we will be adding on a couple other goodies(Oil Cooler, DSS Axles, HKS EVC Boost Controller, PWR Radiator, Recaro SPG Passenger seat, TS Carbont Fiber Hood, etc..) and then it's off to Sam@GT Motorsports for pump and race gas tunes.
I will keep you guys updated on the progres...
Thanks guys, this forum has been a godsend for VQ35 tech and has helped me to build the foundation of my dream car.
Derek,
DSport

Now we are replacing the cams and at the same time I want to change the studs and headgasket. The bore size is .20 over so the HKS headgasket wont fit.
Will the Cosworth 96mm Headgasket fit? Will the ARP L19 Head studs fit without modification?
Thanks for the support.

Thanks for the update Derek. The HKS gasket 97mm, and will work with your 96mm bore (.020 overbore). Th gasket was designed to accomodate a wider range of bore sizes. L19 headstuds will drop right in, without modifications....trq to 90ft/lbs with moly lube.
Good luck with the new project.
