Got it.

So here it is, my 5at with the JWT kit installed by the pimps at VRT. For those that don't know this is a JWT kit installed on a stock motor and stock auto tranny. VRT and JWT agreed on tuning it a bit conservatively as this is the first auto tranny (that I'm aware of) with the JWT kit installed. It made about 411hp on the dyno, but we decided to back it off to about 360. We want to feel it out and retune for more power as we get comfortable with what we think the tranny can handle. We were going to install a new radiator along with an oil and tranny cooler, but put it off to to a few unforseen problems and time constraints.

First impression, it runs great and is freakin quick. I was smiling the entire ride home to Vegas from San Diego. Shifting is smooth as silk, no different from stock. Ride is awesome, idles great. I can't wait to get it on a track. It blows through first and second gear like they don't exist. before you know it you're doing 80 in a 35... (apologize to your neighbors for me Michael )

Here are a few quick and dirty pics, more to come when I get some daylight. I forgot to ask for a copy of the dyno which might have to wait until the VRT crew gets back from racing at Laguna Seca. More to come...

It's a similar design to the pop charger, but I think that it uses a shorter filter. You can hear that thing whistle when you hit the gas.

This is just my opinion. How would it look if you took off the rear Infiniti logo and word, and just left VRT on one side and G35 on the other?
