a 5 inch thick adamantium firewall to protect you from when the motor explodes at 42 much less 70psi . It hink you mean .3 bar and .5 bar right? Sounds like the Power Enterprises kits power numbers from their marketing lingo. I'd say McBick, you'd want to run a larger fuel pump with 380/440cc injectors to not have to worry about fuel in the short term.

I'm not familiarized with the non metrical sistem. Yes, I meant 3 or 5bar. Should I need any other mod? Like pistons, conecting rod, crankshaft... And for last: any fuel pump in special recomended?

1 bar = 14 psi
3 bar = 42 psi
5 bar = 70 psi

The greddy emanage would probably be fine up to about 1 bar. After that I would say pickup a standalone.

so at 5 bar or 72.5psi, would that be like 1690 hp given like 1psi equates to about what is it 20 hp added. looks like that would be totally unstreetable and everything in the engine and drivetrain would probrobly need to be upgraded or replaced. i am guessing this would have to be a monster drag 350z.

LOL, 5 bar of boost. You will need to replace your fuel tank with a plastic fuel cell to hold the alcohol.

Hehe, in reallity the 5 bars was only for curiosity, I'm not going to run 5 bars, but if it don't require much mods, surely I'll try with 3bars in the 1/4 mile
