Hi Guys,

Daniel thanks for letting me know about this thread!

We are still closing the shop (sorry!) however I will still be doing development on the 350z and racing both the Genesis Coupe's and my 350z next year. My goal is to be well over 360whp with the ITB's, although I believe we will need to do a valve spring change to exceed 8200rpm reliably.

The ported heads didn't gain much power on their own - pop the plenum and the engine came alive. It really shows how restrictive the intake is, even with our elbow and 90mm throttle body. My belief is there isn't enough space from the bell-mouths of the intake manifold - the walls of the plenum are too narrow and low. That's just my theory anyways.

I'm sure the ITBs should help!

How long do you get to keep that garage and dyno for? Gotta get the community to 400hp N/A before you lose all your tools!

Revup originally. Don't think there is any VVT going on anymore.

That looks like a DE based on the cam sprocket pulley covers.
