Stock Motor with forced induction...How badly did you push it?
56. 03 Greddy TT kit, CJM Stage1 fuel system, turboxs utec, Nismo cams 112k miles stock block, 13psi 560whp 562tq, has been boosted for roughly 40k miles at 9.5psi
. We are going 600whp next week on the stock block, am trying to find a reason to build it. I have all the parts ready and a spare block.

57. 06 rev up Greddy TT kit, e-manage blue, 6psi, ran great for about 3k miles. Boost controller malfunction + boost spike @ about 15psi = SMOKE! Broke the ringlands on the oem pistons. Just got done building the motor (cp pistons, carrillo rods, got a utec, etc...) starting it this weekend!
58. 2004 g35 greddy tt, utec, 440, 4.8lbs, wastegate relocation, dynapack dyno 374 whp and 336 wtq, mustang dyno 294 wtq and 324 whp. 3xxx really hard miles, still running strong. tuned by jtran@jtranstudios/overdrive auto
59. 06 revup greddy TT 9.5 psi 425whp dynodynamics tuned by hal@injectedperformance . 14k miles with TT i beat on it everytime i get a chance to drive it . boosted since 2007.

Strange question with some background..
I just got approved for an engine swap under the Oil Consumption TSB, so naturally I'm debating going FI. I figure once the engine is broken in, its the best time to consider FI.
My question is, does anyone know if the "V2" motor is any more durable than the original VQ, or should I expect the similar 400 whp max out of this too? I just don't have any clue as to the internals of this motor and didnt find anything on here using the search function. Thanks for any help!!

60. 05 350z non revup stock motor. Started with TN set up.Lots of parts changed, some customizing and a little bastardizing.The car now runs a hks T51R spl turbo with a little help from CFT.Running Utec with 650cc dw injs. with a max of 10 psi.The car was first dynoed at Performance Factory with 390 or so whp. Hp now unknown.Time for a retune.22,000 miles when boosted. My car has 48,XXX miles and still going.Only a couple runs at Orlando Speedway but is daily driven.I've retired from doing midnight runs because if caught, I could lose my job (and I'm in my 40's LOL) but do enjoy my car everyday mashing thru the gears.No issues except replacing a couple TN up pipes due to cracking.I cracked 2 pipes using TN's turbo???????Can anyone fab a heavy duty replacement??? 
If motor can last until next year, I will try to spring for a sleeved short block.Anyone got any serious suggestions on what shop to go to for a built sleeved motor on the east coast????????? SP Racing and IP are a little far. GTM is on the other coast line
Hearing mixed reviews about Forged and AAM. Help?

I am going on almost 3.5 years of forced induction....and almost another year beofre that of Nitrous injections. I had a TN ST kit for about 6 months, and then ditched it for a Greddy Twin kit. In January or February 2010, it'll mark 3 years that I've had the Greddy Twins on my car. I'm still on the stock Revup motor..same clutch (ACT street clutch) and still using the UTEC. MY car has 58,000 miles on it now. I don't recall what the mileage was when I started down this road, but this motor has to have close to 40,000 BOOSTED MILES on it. lol. The car dynoed at around 410 rwhp and 400 rwtq. I drive it everyday for pleasure, to and from work, take/pickup my child at school. city, highway....everything driving. Not a day goes by that I don't go full boost! gotta hear the open wastegate dumps!!! :-)

to an excellent FI success story.
so skimmed through here fairly quickly... anyone do this for the HR? close to biting the bullet on boost for mine, but can't do the engine build right away, just looking to throw the kit on and go with tune.
