Message	Yes, I just got the vg30 motor that I'll build from last weekend. It will get 91mm pistons (with liners if req'd.). I will fab my own upper plenum to mount the s/c. Planning on vq35 MAF & T/B. The s/c I use will be a $150 ebay version and then fresh rebuild. Alot of details to work out, but that's the basis of the project The Eaton M90 s/c is oem designed for up to 10 psi boost. I'll prolly go with 9:1 pistons I saw on a Nissan parts website where you can buy the whole s/c system (manifold included) brand new for $1800. On the VQ30DETT, they prolly reduce the VQ35 displacement down to 3.0 liters due to the racing rules. :-O :-) ____________________________ '93 n/a slicktop stage 0 My CarDomain
