It's really cool you did this but it appears to have A LOT of traction issues. How are you going to address this or did you do this swap for the track where you plan to run slicks all the time. I just can;t see doing a swap like this AND boosting it if you can't put he power to the ground.
Umm.. not really.. It adds roughly 100lbs up front, with the extra engine weight, and the turbo. However, we have moved the battery to the trunk, which helps to offset about 30-40lbs. So, we've added about 60-70lbs to the nose. With proper suspension, you don't even notice the extra weight.
Heh.. Yeah, I had to film, drive, and monitor gauges. That's why I just rolled on it in each gear. I really wanted to get a full sweep in each gear, but, tirespin didn't help for sure.
Every VQ engine from a Quest, to a Maxima/Altima/Murano/I35, is exactly the same.. The difference in power comes from the computer and exhaust.
Yeah.. this was while I was tuning on the car in low boost. It's a handful.. that's for sure.. The video sucks, but, it's tough to video drive and monitor gauges at the same time. ;)
