ok what are some good upgrade to your N/A car so that it gets some decent horsepower. like 300-400hp

 

Headers, 2 1/2" exhaust, Underdrive pulley, ECU, Water/alky injection, Nitrous and a electric fan should give you somewhere in the area of 135+HP. 222HP + 135HP= 357HP. Not bad considering you can do it for under $1,500.
You might even spank a few turbo'ed cars out there.

 

yo zgringo $1500 just the parts or with installation.

 

For the goodies, unless you have a mechanic buddie welling to help you for free or you can do it yourself.
Still a good deal.

 

$1500 for all that? I was thinking more in the $2500 area. How much does a good nitrous setup run?

 

Here's one from summit racing ........... $600

http://store.summitracing.com/defaul....asp&x=37&y=11

 

Headers- $580
Exhaust- $550+
UD Pulley- $200
Ashpec ECU- $200
Nitrous- $600
Electric Fan- $175
Total = $2305
These prices are off of CZP, Z1, Specialty Z and Ash's site.

 

a little bit more and you could afford a front clip.

 

I just finished doing a N/A for a friend and here's a list of the cost:
Headers- $175
Exhaust custom built-$250
UDPulley-$60
Ashspec ECU $200
Nitrous- 2 kits off eBay, one Zex dry $300, and one wet $300. Only ended up using the dry kit.-$300
Electric fans- 2 12"- $70
Snow Water/alky injection- $200

Total-$1,255

The extra was used for a HKS ALC as his car was a automatic.

 

Except from what I've read, a clip + diy install is gonna be $4k+. And clip + paid install will be in the $8k range. Most people can't go the diy route.

zgringo........ less the nitrous, what do you think with your mods, 250 net?

300 h.p. shouldn't be too hard, but I think you'll have to do some work to flow more air thru the motor. starting at the maf and working back thru the custom exhaust.

After looking at these engines with the intake plenum off, It doesn't look like it would be too hard to graft on a Eaton s/c, t/b & maf from, say a 3.8 liter ford engine. You can get these off ebay all the time for around $100.

 

CC, I haven't had the chance to look at the Eaton supercharger on the VG V6 engine on the Fontier, but it seems like a natural for a N/A Z32.
