N/A build advice for lower plenum
Hi, I am building my 04.5 5AT 350z with the mods below:
1)3.53 final drive with vLSD off a manual
2)Greddy Ti-C true dual exhaust
3)2.5'' non resonated test pipes
4)topspeed headers
5)Blox 5/8'' plenum spacer
6)nismo intake with 3'' MAF housing
7)UR racing pulleys
8)transgo valve body upgrade
9)NGK IX Iridium #6 spark plugs
10)BC stage 2 camshafts IN/EX 264/264 10.82/10.82
the rev limiter will be raised to 7500 and the car will be tuned using uprev osiris. the question is if the revup lower plenum with shorty runners and bigger openings will help me yield high rpm power.
thanks

I highly suggest you keep the stock crank pulley, as I have had an un-orthadox racing pulley on for 30k miles and now it wont come off unless I go to extreme's or possibly break it's connection with the crank. GTM has video's somewhere explaining this issue.
You can get other light weight pulleys for the other components but save the life of your engine and stick with the stock (or ATI pulley)
Are you going to do any port and polishing with the upper plenum or heads?

Here's a shot of my engine bay right now with:
-Nismo intake, Ur pulleys, Cusco oil catch can, Blox plenum spacer, polished plenum, HKS oil& radiator cap,mishimoto thermostat

Headers, radiator silicone hoses, BC cams stage 2 waiting to be installed:

sorry for the crappy android pics

i run a ported and heavily shaved revup lower plenum on my car. but i dont have any before and after dyno or anything to backup if it made a difference. i like to say it helps and i have my rev limiter raised to 7300.

You only need JWT valve springs and shims to rev to 7500, as per SG's build.
Revup oil pump is a great idea.
The revup lower will peak higher in the RPMs. It works if your peak is above 6350. Fact.
