Lol...i will...he has broken down and started building another vq37 but all he has done on mine is drop the motor and yell at me....lol. Although he did drop the subframe pull the motor and put the subframe back in and it only took him and hour and a half.....was beast. Ive been doin most the work as far as tear down and keeping track of everything. I wont be setting piston rings or any of the tech stuff either. Ill see ya soon Ronito!

No, nothing as far as sound. I'm pretty sure it was the 2011 winter when I was overboosting to 14psi plus. I wouldn't worry too much. JTran says the bottom ends are twice what the vq35's are. Weak point is the rods, I think I've proven that.......lol!
