i seriously hope you have thought of placement for turbos that size because seriously unless you put it under your flow board there is no room at all. good luck and by the time you get those things spooled up you wont be able to catch up hahahaha..... good luck....
wow such noob advice. you dont need to build these motors. the stock vq37hr pistons and rods are just as beefy as aftermarket parts for the vq35. those were the weakest part of those engines and caused the most problems. you can run over 400rwhp easy as long as you have a good install and tune without issue.
do it big mikey!
A turbo that size will be making WAY more than 400whp. What your most concerned with is the head gasket. In cylinder pressures rise dramatically with a motor with this high compression ratio. A head gasket designed for a stock 11:1 just wont cut it if running any more than about 8 psi of boost. With the stock 11:1 motor, then turboing, your also worried about detonation. Running a high octane gas (110+, not 93 pump gas )is a must (helps to eliminate detonation and preignition). As a rule of thumb, the larger the turbo, the lower the compression ratio you want. Large turbos really boost in the higher rpms, which obviusly dramatically raises in cylinder pressures. Single turbos generally produce more boost than twin turbos also. Throwing this turbo on a stock bottom end WILL end in disaster.
hmmm well i speak from experiance. i have had my turbos on my car now for about 7,000 miles and i had not ahd any problems and really i have a not so good tune... but i wont get into that. it runs and runs just fine in boost. and anybody that knows me knows that i dont play easy in fact a NSX with Nitrous cant keep up and neither can the bike that i was playing around with that got me ona garmin going 171... trust these motors are tuff...
