When Infiniti made the G35 they made a great luxury sports car platform but with the advertised 300hp as most enthusiasts know those 300 horses only go so far, so when one of our customers wanted his G35 to be as powerful as possible without hurting the reliability and comfort of the luxury G. We let him test drive our Time Attack G35 and he instantly fell in love with the Momentum Performance turbo kit and was amazed to feel a G35 pulling that hard. Unlike our race car though he wanted a G that could hang with or beat anything on the street without sacrificing the luxury of the Infitini and the Daily Beast was born. To start we have added a Momentum Performance GT35R turbo kit, exhaust and a Competition Clutch. Now enjoy some eye candy and be sure to check back for updates!

 

Pre Turbo, Clutch, Bumper and wheels

 

 

Looks great. I'd love to see more pics of the new wheels.

 

dyno charts? numbers?! videos?!

 

Ill post a video and some wheel pics tomorrow. We will be dynoing it sometime this weekend

 

in for results

 

XXR 526 wheels= zero upgrade from the Axis already installed.. XXR far heavier. Fake lip.. eesh.

WHY?

Not hating to hate,, but seriously.. why would anyone building a performance car screw their rotational mass that badly? Throw some RPF1s on ther are show him what that car will really do.

 

Not sure about them weighing more then the Axis:

Really nice turbo kit, with stock motors the momentum kits will normally put down a solid 400 - 420 whp at 17psi i know george over at momentum is putting 601 whp down but also has a built motor.

Looks like the front wheels could use a 15mm spacer

Great install!!! Good to see good parts being installed by good shops!!

 

they are heavier.. and maybe not by much, but its certainly a downgrade.

i know an Axis VIP in 20x9.5 was 27.9 lbs .. and the XXR in 20x11 was well over 30 lbs. i believe they told me ( the manufacturer) 33 lbs.

why down grade the wheels during a huge build? ANy other post, i wouldnt ahve cared.. but it just didnt make sense was all. Stood out like a sore thumb to me was all.

I guess when the owner gets used to the power, he can always upgrade.. and will feel one heck of a difference in feel and performance for sure..

 

If those are 20" then agreed. If they are 18's I'll say the car will feel faster.. My Z always felt faster with 18's

 

dunno if this guys are 20s or not, but yeah fer sure.. just saying apples to apples versus oranges to oranges.. if the 20s are heavier, then the 18s ( or what have you) would be too.

I concur 18s feel better too.. the weight is closer in to the hub, rotational dynamics blah blah.. iwont derail the thread anymore.. and also good job etc on the car overall OP.. i know my post probably sounded childish or negative.. wasnt meant to be as such.

jus sayin.. sell that boy some good wheels now!

 

I have never seen a Power Lab turbo kit powder coated black.

 

Maybe i went too far.. Hey, happens. Comment removed.

 

Its a Momentum Performance GT35R Turbo Kit, not Power Lab - https://my350z.com/forum/engine/5412...s-on-sale.html

 

The wheels he apparently traded from a friend, i think he just liked they way they looked better. I personally like my TE37 SL's on my G - https://my350z.com/forum/g35-g37/541...ml#post9476613

 

Just to avoid any… confusion my “authentic” PowerLab single turbo was actually powder coated gloss black in 2009, lol

 

Ah the inside "joke" that subtly lives just under the surface of our comments. Haha. I love it.

Great kit.

 

That is a completely false and contemptible claim you have made, sir. We did not spend 1.5 years in research and development to "copy" a kit. No one at MP has even seen a PL kit, let alone copy one. There are many OBVIOUS differences in the kit that differentiates ours from theirs. As well as my outstanding customer service.
