I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were about:

-A built HR running 11 or 11.5 comp. pistons w/ stillens new s/c sytem ( when/ if it comes out ) ....

I had a tt Z (R.I.P.) and I really liked it but I want to go a different route with the HR and as long as I've been on here I've never seen this ( with the DE's and Rev-Ups ). I've honestly never liked stillen s/c's b/c they were priced just as much as a vortech but made a lot less max power. But if its possible; and I don't throw a rod b/c of detonation etc, I think this would make some nice numbers and be fairly reliable ?!?!

Thanks for the input in advance guys!

 

lulz

 

if you run race gas , maybe

 

a m90 roots blower would put down some serious HP but I am not sure how much boost its cpable of so a 11.1 + compression might be too much before you get pre-det.

 

Stop it already.... TT re-build or GTFO. Just stay away from those pesky trees that jump out onto the road and you will be fine . If I have to do it twice, then so do you.

 

Stillen would be the same as CAI. lulz.

 

A shop did a 11.2 compression on a built DE and made around 420whp at 5psi with the vortech so the HR should be a lot stronger and would probably make a good low and mid pw street car monster.

here's the link to the build: https://my350z.com/forum/shop-builds...r-charged.html

 

i wouldnt believe a word of whats coming out of their mouths. BMW Boss dyno... wut?!

 

I just got off the phone with him a little while ago and told him the exact same thing!!

 

 

DO IT!!!

 

Twins for sure

Stillen?... definately not worth it if your going SC, Vortech is the way but stay away from stillen, almost made that mistake before I went FI and my neighbor who HAD one, well needless to say it not only ruined his motor, but never made pwoer that anyone could notice.

 

Thanks for the info guys... I am guessing I might be dissapointed in the power after having a TT. Also; like Mike said, I can have a reliable 350-400 on an HR... and a max of around 500 if need with the touch of a button. Instead of having one setting on the S/C. Thanks for everyone's opinions!!! I'll keep everyone updated when/if I decide to go F/I again.

 

"IF" hahahahahahahaha

 

F/I or

Ask yourself this question: Do you really want to be the only one showing up at the central PA meets with a NA Z/G??

.... I didn't think so

 

I am in the process of building my motor with a T-trim vortech set up and i am going to be rite around stock compression. I am just trying to figure out how much boost to try to run to hit 550-600whp, and if i do get that high weather the motor is going to hold together or not

 

Your going to hit the same wall that everyone else does. Snapped cog belts at high rpm's

 

I have never heard of the cog belt snapping. Serp belt slipping yes but cog belt snapping is a new one for me.

 

You're going to need to increase your compression to say the least, and then you'll be looking at 500whp maybe. For the numbers you want, you would need to increase the displacment to 4.2L. Good luck with your project, and keep us posted.

 

All hell just go ahead with the stillen as its the biggest waist of money on the market.




Doug will agree with me on this also.
