Forced Induction & 7AT 370z Info

1slow370 · 07-31-2014, 08:29 PM

I think most guys with the valvebody/cooler are in the 350-400tq range more than that and you probably need the extra plates in the stage 4

So the consensus is that <400 is reasonably doable? out of the higher gears of course.

seems like it but thats the part that always turned me off.

why would i mod my car for more power and to be faster......but i cant get on it after 4th gear without spending another $7k? just not worth it in general.

Never topped out 4th in Hawaii…
But i know what you mean. If i were to ever get a lower rear gear, i.e. 3.69/3.90/4.08 4th would top out a lot sooner. The only thing I have out here is Autocross. I miss the NorCal Track days.

There's Level 10 Transmission in NJ that did fully built for me and SharpByCoop. It's way below $7K

My mistake.. I didn't realized this is only 7-speed but at least you have another option beside GTM for built transmission. I'm just helping out guys with auto.

but it doesn't help the 5's and 7's are completely different and cannot be interchanged, the internal parts are even different, the valve bodes have completely different solenoids and things nothing crosses over and level 10 has already been contacted about the 7 speed several times and they have said basically maybe some day they will have support for it. the 5 speed is the 4l80e to the 7speeds 6l90 if you want to put it in gm terms. the 5 speed is a half accumulator half pwm based transmission and the 7 speed is all pwm based. Hell the 5 speed still has drum bands in it where as the 7 speed went to perimeter clutch packs.

Basically ther is NO ONE but GTM that builds up 7 speed's

Ok first off it was stupid to do, but my tranny is stock and I'm running the gem supercharger kit and i maxed the speedo... The tranny was fine i checked it😃

Kojack, could you provide me with the following details, will add you to the FI boost thread along with this one noting you have a built 7AT.

Info to help people:
-Year
-Kit used
-Current HP/Torque
-Current PSI
-Fuel
-Miles since kit installed
-Other upgrades (clutch/flywheel/engine/etc.), also include miles when these upgrades were completed with done after original FI install

Sorry, I didn't clarify it too well, Cooper and myself have 5-speed auto built from Level 10. And I spoke with Pat regarding about you guys with 7-spd auto and he mention that he does them. Can't recall how much he quoted but knowing it was less then 7grands (compare to GTM's price) when you bring your transmission to them.

Tempestz · 08-02-2014, 12:52 PM

Really? Care to enlighten me? Pm please. I'd love to know more about it. But being in Hawaii makes it that much more expensive.

1slow370 · 08-06-2014, 02:13 AM

based on the transmissions histroy don't make a habit of it, complicated machines are fun like that, it isn't a matter of "the trans is good for 350 so if you are making more than that it will fail" it is more of "the trans is good for 350 so if you are making that or less don't worry about it failing early as much" Once you start going over rated capacity no one can tell you what will happen, unless you go way over like if it is rated for 350 and you are trying to put 700 through it you will slip the clutches and melt it, if you don't something will break.

FPenvy · 08-06-2014, 08:09 AM

i guess with a supercharger you should be ok.

to be honest most of the supercharger kits barely make any big power on the Z. i've seen a few put up decent numbers but most are just ehhhh with the SC kits.

i guess 7AT and a SC would survive.

this is why i cant go boost lol TT kit only and 500whp min would be my target
