Default FX35 on roids!

VRT and JWT boosted FX35 - G35Driver

Hope you guys don't midn me posting this here. My home forum is infinitifx.org, I browse around here and my350z all the time since we have the VQ35 as well. Hope this at least entertains a few of you.

Them boys at VTR - Twin Turbo Your Stock Nissan 350Z & Infiniti G35 Coupe met up by accident (literally) with the right customer looking for some motor help.

This is my 05 Diamond Graphite FX35 RWD


My motor blew on the Stillen stage 3 out of ignorance and neglect. Never had it dyno'd or had any kind of A/F monitoring in place.


I wasn't out trying to find more power than the Stillen was giving me, just happen to be needing some help and Michael A and VRT were there to lend a helping hand


Bet you've never seen this before! An FX with no motor.


Intercooler test fitted


Intercooler with bumper cover off.


Here's the infamous Jim Wolf Technology Twin Turbo kit during the build


Here's a shot of one of the turbos.


My monitoring in place to help me out. Boost, fuel pressure, oil temp and a Zeitronix wide band A/F.


Engine bay with completed kit during the break in miles.


Superflow dyno done by technosquare. A/F is the redline, no tq on this print out. Hp reads 375ish at under 6k prm with a pig rich A/F of . We'll tune it for more power while keeping it safe once we have the L Spec ECU flash from Technosquare


At the Technosquare facility on the new superflow


On a dynojet during some testing.


And a departing shot of what VRT is all about. Daily driven beasts are a reality when working with VRT.
I've riden in the 600+hp G on errands all over SD in the 90+ degree heat with the A/C on the whole time and it idling like a kitten. They are the real deal.


There's more planned for this beast, it's been fun and a learning experience thus far.

Idling like a kitten? Nice. lol, jk

But yeah, basically that fancy Murano is sexy as hell. and now it's got the power to boot... What size turbo's? 280 hp stock and twin turbo's only add another 80?! lol what's the deal?

I don't see the point of putting two intercoolers together. For the power you are making, you certainly don't need it.

i was wondering that myself

i think it looks real nice aside from the wheels, but SUVs are hard to put good wheels on

Maybe it is because of the shape of the front of the car. The front of the Infiniti is kinda different, and they apparently wanted it that way.
