i found it hard to work on the VQ engine when i had my g35 and its sucks that they cant handle higher PSI on FI setups... the most ive seen on a stock block is no more than 12psi turbo or SC running around 400whp...and thats with moderate driving... i was always scared to push my car to the limit even with just a few bolt ons... but yeah.. cool ride my friend!!! greetings from Syria

Well the issue is the fueling system the car will lean out at 400whp you need 550cc injectors with return fuel system and walbro 255 pump or 800cc injector ecu scaling and walbro pump should be good

The big issue with the DE engine past 400whp is connecting rods. Even if you continue to feed it fuel and have a good tune you are running on borrowed time. There is a very good reason many of the big guns in the Z world move to an LS engine.

If you really plan to go to bigger boost you might as well wait and build the bottom end and do it right the first time.

I had a G35 and yes, the rods cannot handle much boost. I thoroughly researched an engine build w/ a turbo kit and it made more sense to get a car already built for boost (my GT2).

Take it from me, enjoy the car as a very nice DD w/ a fun 400 hp. If you really want to go big power you will want a different platform (GTR, 996/7TT, etc).
