Kevin's VQ35DE NA Build Epilogue..
Im curious... hows the camera man doing with such a bad case of Parkinson's disease? Dude its a camera not your D*** stop playing with it and film the vid.
end rant.
otherwise impressive victory.

To be honest, hell no haha. I should have the title for highest NA SE-R Sentra and hopefully highest 1/4 NA sentra. Just built the car to be unique one of a kind as in any other build hehe. This ain't your average import turbo car its a import NA muscle car with some twist to it. I do think turbos are sick though. Just gota build your car to your liking. Who said we were done here? Nitrous anyone *cough* 200shot? Car would murder if we spray it, but thats not going to be for a while, even a 75progressive shot would be more than enough to my liking.
So to answer your question, nope don't regret and glad to show off new options to the VQ.
Cars are a waste of money either way you go haha.
Oh and I did edit the post it was around 12k not 15.

Yes the filters are on the way and should be here next week. They are imported from the UK, at least the ones I'm going with that aren't a rip off haha. They're cool looking you'll see them soon. Nope no air box.
On a longitudinally mounted motor that could be pulled off nicely I bet.

Building your own unique car is whatever route you want to go. Turbo or NA. I guess you'd pick up a little more HP tuning the exhaust cam though with the ITB and everything else I have.

You also gota get rid of drive by wire and run a cable but if you run your standalone all that will be easy.

HR hood swap won't work. Same issue. Easiest solution is either cut out around the ITB and run a hood scoop. Or just run shorter horns and it'll clear the hood.

Pipercross Trumpet Sock Filters
The Pipercross Trumpet Sock Filters came in so I decided to shoot a few pictures since I think it's pretty cool looking.
Here is a little close up of the fuel rail and injectors.

Alright if you see this graph you'll see how it works with me explaining the Xs.
@5000 +20-25WHP (1st X)
@5500 +20-25WHP (2nd X)
@6000 +25WHP (3rd X next to the big 300)
@6500 +20WHP (4th X)
@7000 +10WHP (5th X)
@7250 +35-40WHP (6th X)
@7500 +20-25WHP (7th X)
@7700 + 25-30WHP (8th X)
If you follow the Xs from left to right you'll see the gains.
The big 300HP mark is just showing where 300WHP starts from 6000-7700RPM is all about 300whp peaking at 315.
Keep in mind the tune isn't really complete because this was before any midrange tuning and the top end was just quickly made because the 9PM curfew for noise had to put a stop to the tuning that night and I took it home. I predict its got some more on the top end and you'll see even more under the curve later on too once they have time to tune it fully.
This graph is intended to show the before and after gains in the powerband for ITB vs stock intake setup.

I finally understand your graph now! I've been wondering what the top dyno run connected to below 5k, but it's basically you plotting it based on your other video.
It's really interesting that both setup realizes max power at a very similar rpm and by looking at your previous manifold I noticed that it's a log style one. It seems that the entire power curve is just shifted upwards by 20-25whp, is that also true down low? I would have expected a more gradual increase in power as rpm climbs. Too bad you don't have a torque curve on there.
