The motor is built with 10:1 compression. I always thought that torque starts to fall off when HP takes over - is this not true?

Yes this I have the AAM kit with the EFR6758s in their default configuration.

Thanks for your reply...
Yes ... torque falls off [affecting the rate of acceleration] when HP takes over.
Just realized that you have a G35 ... different motor than the 370.

I have been down to AAM to 'visit' my car ... and there is no room to fiddle around in that cramped motor compartment at all!
They would have to pull the motor to do any work on the Turbos.
I did speak with them and they are aware of my concerns regarding the/my need for power up top since I do plan to run the 1/4 with it.
I am running 9.5:1 CR with 1300 Injectors so I'll be needing a lot of air to keep up.
The stock Turbo's are in the car and we are waiting on a few more parts to come in before the Dyno Day arrives to see how it all works together before finalizing the decision to change the Turbos.
Probably will speak with them again regarding all this beforehand to see what is involved cost wise to do this.
In the meantime I will still be fishing for more info!
Thanks,

I'm in the same situation ... what price did they give you for the upgrade?
When the car was shipped down there they didn't have that option - or they just didn't mention it to me.
Thanks,

You changing kits?

As far as I know, Alterception is the first and only person who has purchased the upgrade so far. My knowledge on it is very limited, but I'm not sure if it is a direct turbo swap, or if something inside the turbo is swapped out, still using the original housing.

Yeah. To reach my power goals I was going to have to buy a new turbo, get the larger 3 inch charge piping, and possibly modify the downpipe to allow more flow. I was given a pretty incredible deal (sponsorship) through AAM, so I decided to make the switch to their kit. It was a pretty unique opportunity that came at a perfect time.

Nice. If I end up with a built motor I'll likely be disappointed I didn't go TT too. Of course there wasn't a TT option for a G when I took the plunge so nothing to really regret.

You might just have to pioneer another solution like you did with BP

I have no issues with the BP kit by any means. After some thought and number crunching, it was actually a tad bit cheaper to switch kits believe it or not. Modifying the downpipe would have been pretty expensive, the turbo, and the new charge pipes.... after adding all of that and what I could sell the BP kit for, it was cheaper to get the AAM kit.

As part of my contract, Ill be giving my review of the AAM kit, and my experiences with both kits and how they fare against each other. It won't be apples and apples because of the different power levels, but another bit of research to help other forum members in their searches.

How much boost? Did you get a torque number?

clkio · 12-15-2015, 12:41 PM

17 psi, no I didn't yet

Hotrodz · 12-15-2015, 01:34 PM

Wow, e85 and about 6 more psi and you be looking 800 in the face. Nice numbers...

thanks man. Actually, they telling me if I decide to go E85, they think it will make 775-800WHP without increasing boost.
