    Two weeks into owning a 3.7 Q50 and I'm loving it. So far only a muffler delete but pretty good power for a daily. There are some guys around town with 93octane tune/ nitrous 370z's beating mustangs so that's something to look forward to lol

    Yeah it’s still worth it . Believe me. For a daily driver and longevity and reliability. The newer ones are not that reliable because the turbos do go out especially when adding more power and mods to the engine. With a 3.7 you can get to 500-700 with either a super charger air to air kit , (up to 700 hp) . Above that will kill the tranny.. and you might blow a gasket or two.Now for the lower hp 400-500hp, : 3” cold air intakes or Infiniti alpha (ams) on .3.7 , - yes they do fit on 3.7’s just the air hose will be custom longer , gtr injectors 750cc ,no higher otherwise you will have idle issues , ported intake manifold , full cat back exhaust with a tune (up to 500hp ) all depending on the car and climate . It will just cost you your pockets .

      So all you need for 500hp on a 3.7 is a cold air intake, injectors, tune, catback exhaust, and ported intake?

    • @hc7786
      @hc7786 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@vPhranon no actually you will need a supercharger kit. Soho a2a kit in particular .but for “UNDER” or up to 500hp , doesn’t mean you will get to those numbers. It’s based on who tunes your car without blowing it up, climate, and running e85. you can do a full set up with cat back , long tube headers (isr) or hfc, (berk) is more popular, drop in filters (k&n) or 3” cold air intake if that is what you would choose to go as far as intakes. Or alpha intakes if you want to go that route too. Now as far as injector goes for without a kit. 650-750 cc injectors. Anything above the cc injectors mentioned “without “ a sc kit will cause idle issues.

    I have a lengthy question about what power mods are actually worth it below 800hp. The fuel pump is a 348lph and the injectors that come with it are 720cc. There isn’t much worth doing in terms of fuel unless you’re pushing a crazy amount of hp. I believe z1s I take manifolds will yield much more than injectors and a fuel pump would and it’s a bit cheaper. If you personally have a set of injectors that added a noticeable amount of performance or even just reliability I’d love the name of where I can get them since I’ve been struggling to decide on my next mod before I build a rear mount turbo setup

    • @Mahamotives
      @Mahamotives  ปีที่แล้ว

      I just installed admin 650cc injectors …. My tuner actually said they’re the best ones you can get other than the OEM GTR injectors. On NA you’ll only notice the power difference if you fill up with a full tank of e85 … boosted you’ll notice more of a difference regardless. 340 fuel pump should be more than enough as well. I just have a 255 walbro so I can push E85 a little more safer than the stock pump

      If it’s out the door price that’s about fair, just make sure it’s clean title, and the car doesn’t have issues…test drive the car and ask if the valve body been replaced yet….if they don’t know floor it around in manual mode bc that’s the mileage the valve body is supposed to go out if it goes out before you buy it then they’ll have to get it fixed before they sell…. Mine went out around 90k and I bought mine at 85k …. Some Q’s go out around 70k so it could’ve been fixed already too
