since the 350z is a 3.5L or the 370Z which is a 3.7L... im thinking we could use those kits for our 3.6L.. it doesnt matter what car its for aslong as the displacement is about the same..
anyone?

Not sure if the kit would work since it fits in different spots. I guess you can use the same turbo or s/c and buy whatever else you need. I don't know too much about the v6 motors, but maybe you can find a turbo that the g6 v6 uses?

Buy a gxp.

anyway, a turbo would probably be the best way to go. Your thinking on the right track. You can take a turbo that is designed for those cars and it would probably be an adequate size, but the piping and all the other systems would probably need to be different. You can take any turbo and make it work for any car, just because there is no "kit" for a G8 doesn't mean that you cant make it a turbo. With the right amount of money and know-how you can make things happen.

look for a kit in Ozzie land, don't they have the v6 model too?

na theyre asking 5000 for a SC kit that gives around 330hp.. i rather do a turbo kit.. theres a good amount of space under the hood too so it shoudnt need alot of fabrication

I've been watching the STS Turbo build in the V8 section. Because our exhaust setups are very much the same as far as routing is concerned, I'm thinking this would be a good option.

Of course all of this means nothing WITHOUT A TUNE!!!

Turbos always provide more power, but u dont need a kit, a custom set up is the best since u can exactly built it for ur specs...

BINGO! We have a winner. :)

That's the biggest hurdle for any modding at this point. Until someone breaks the code and is able to tune the ECM, everything else will be moot.

Magnason was thinking about doing a S/C but they are probably in the same boat, waiting for someone to break the code. The V6's in Ozzie land use a different ECM so there tune will not work.

It is all relative, because all the custom turbo kit my builder does, he uses performance computers like Haltech, etc and Haltech is an Australian and one fo the biggest performance computers in the market, so the stock ECM wont mean anything, since it wont be used, but then again we are talking this is for good turbo kits, not ur typical custom set up...

Wouldn't Haltech need to have a replacement for the stock ECM before your tuner could install it? If one exists that would be great.

No,

U can do it 2 ways for sofisticated ECM cars like ours you use the stock ecm to run the regular electornics on the car, but the Haltech will run all the performance part. my 95 Impala SS has the stock computer to run BS and the Haltech runs all performance. And in an really old school car the Haltech can run everything easy, but makes the job easier to keep the stock computer for our cars...

Performance talking tuning is just a mild upgrqade way to do thins, with a permance computer (I.E. Haltech, etc...) u can truly get more perfomance out of a car. and even more that Haltech is Australian, im sure they have amazing options for our cars. Thats what i will use with mine when i deicde to put my turbo set up... But ill leave that up to my builder, but im sure thats how my car will be tuned, thru a Haltech...

the guy that tuned my car is looking in tunning for the V6. He is well known for one of the only tuners that was able to break the NA cavalier!

could you buy a aussie ecu that is tuned(holden commodore), and put it in our cars(v6)?

No,

So how does the Haltech know what to do and when? I assume that it'll have to be plugged into our computers somewhere so it can monitor the state of our car. If this is true and they have something that works that's awesome.

Find m a V6 in WA and you will have a mail order tune avaliable!

what about buying another v6 ECU, and sending it to Australia to get it tuned or another place that can tune, would this be possible?

?????

what does a "Z" have to do with G8Board? I should go over to the Nissian board and ask them what they think of a Supercharged or turbo on a G8... I bet they would not be kind with words :slap:

Why not build a custom turbo kit and install an AEM F/IC.

I'd suggest you start a new topic, I think many people here did not see your posts cause' they are not following this topic!

I'd be more than willing if it wasn't for the distance!

I already did... no takes. Must not be many V6's in WA?

370z turbo kit would not work. The vvel engine in the 370 has a dual throttle-body, which actually remains 100% open at all times; fuel delivery is actually controlled by the vvel system and a separate ECM that piggy-backs on the regular ECU. It is a bitch to tune. So that, I'm sure, alters the the turbo specifics way too much to use in with the 3.6. Besides, all the tubes and wires are all wrong.
