Message	But ask yourself this, who do you see building a 3.0L motor that puts out anything close to 300 hp and 300 lb/ft torque without forced induction? Exactly - if Nissan couldn't do it reliably with their millions of dollars in research, how could you do it as a one off? Frankly, I find even the new 3.5L to be very underwhemling compared to my NA motor, which pulls harder in my view. I think Nissan has seriously fudged the numbers on the new motor, it's not nearly as strong as they suggest, and that motor has 17% more displacement than ours. Not promising.
