Cost of Building a 600+ WHP Turbo 370z

In this video i tell you just how much my 600+ WHP turbo 370z build cost was. This video was for sure depressing at the same time interesting. It was expensive but to me I think it was worth it. This Z will forever be my project car.

What is the best kit to get if I wanna make 500whp on a HR 350z on pump fuel?

[@ShayHarambe]

Ohh good question. I would say the switchback kit still. Or boosted performance kit. I made 580 something on 93. I'm not a 350 obviously but just for reference. Ultimatly comes down to where do you want the turbo. And piping size. Bp kit just from watching fresh kicks i believe he has 2 inch piping or 2.5 where as switchback is full 3 inch. So eventually your gonna be restricted. I would go switchback.

[@spooler7828]

OK, if you want a high HP build (900hp) expect to spend a total of around 70K, maybe a little more. Redo's are expensive.

[@ShayHarambe]

Yeah i would have had to swap the turbo and build the engine for sure.

[@nathanmyles3785]

Cool car. For the price though, it's one thing if you already have a 370 and just want more, but if looking for a car that you want to tinker with from scratch, I'd probably lean towards a 335 and do bolt ons for a similar result, but 370s are in my opinion are good looking cars and I like the fact yours has the stock body. All I'd do is wheels on one of those cosmetically

Yeah I loved just the stock look. I wanted to do a nismo exterior and do like a OEM plus but you know?…. I would get roasted but wgaf 😂😂 switchback did the full turbo and fuel system install. Being that they where still a relatively new company getting their name out they was doing free installations. Then sense they was all up in there anyways I paid $100 for them to install the full CJM fuel system.

[@akoolz]

I was watching shewantsthezz cost breakdown and in reality it doesn’t need to be upwards of 22k. It all depends whether you plan on buying a kit or have a shop that can help you do the work. I think shewantsthezz said he was around 8.5k after buying most of the parts himself and have a shop do the fabrication. I would love to one day boost my Z but not too ecstatic about a 20k price tag lol. So for anyone out there there’s other options and routes to take. But nonetheless this was still a very good and informative video!

[@ShayHarambe]

So I didnt watch his video fully but I know his build video he didn't include everything like I did. He did just the turbo kit. I included full suspension, full supporting mods, and other things here and there. But if I made a video like him then yeah just my turbo kit alone cost 9k something. Not much more than his and mine has more potential.

[@akoolz]

Ahhhh okay makes sense... not sure what work he had done on his suspension wise since I know he has the nismo. But I know he didn’t throw on a few supporting mods to the overall price. Hopefully one day I’ll have my Z at the 500+ hp mark.

[@ShayHarambe]

@@akoolz if I where to do it again I would have just went with the supercharger kit and a2a. Making the same power on e85 and cost way less to build.

[@kevin_delaney]

How's the clutch? One of my fears is building my 07 350z and ruining the driveability of my car. I LOVE my car. I want my car now, but a little stiffer bushings, less body roll, and two or three times the power with a wing and a diffuser so the ass doesn't step out so quickly. My car has about a hundred thousand miles so I've been thinking just coils, brakes, wheels, tires, and build the motor and twin turbo it...But I'm afraid of having a clutch "button" if you know what I mean. I don't want it to be on or off (I have never driven a turbo Z, where in Florida??? Near SRQ??) I see you didn't wrap the exhaust, I wrapped mine and it makes a noticeable difference. You took the thermostat out completely? 🤔 Do you drive it in the winter? Maybe I should too. My car overheats on hot days kinda quick even with a thicker Koyo rad, but it might be the lack of a cold air intake, it's pulling air from the engine bay. Do you still feel like it's the same car, but faster or do you feel it is so much different that it feels like a completely different car? I'd love to know for myself prior to dropping $20-30k.

[@ShayHarambe]

Sheesh lots of stuff going on here. My exhaust is heat wrapped. Only the down pipe and up pipe to the turbo though. Uhhh right now on stage 3 southbend clutch it is driving just like stock. Now at this moment I am upgrading to a 6 puck clutch so that will be aggressive. Very on off. That will be my next video btw. Thermostat is still in and yeah i drive in the winter. We don't get any snow so not worried about it. Best thing I can say is tires and suspension make a world of a difference. I dont really have any intentions of upgrading my radiator at the moment. Ive had no cooling problems. Only thing I would like to do further with cooling is a vented hood and maybe run 2 small nozzles of water injection post intercooler.

[@ShayHarambe]

Yeah that part idk if people understood. The price of the z plus the 22000 I could have bought a used older gtr. You can find a gtr for like 45k. But yeah find a cheap 370z plus all those mods and the weight of the z its the way to go. A lot of dudes are actually running high 600s and low 700s. I just don't wanna blow it till i got money to build it. To mod a gtr though im sure is big money. On top of the 45 to 50k car. But 600 to 700 on stock block on a z. Then Adam lz upgraded the bottom end of his engine and i think he's making 900 on his 370z. To build the bottom end is 2k for rods and pistons. Idk that's how I look at it. Price of car plus mods whats the best car/ route or power to weight ratio. Obviously other things come into play too. To me a 370z is the perfect route to build a racecar :)

im coming from a subie and im low key mising the turbo noises but the power when it is turboed.... well daaamn

[@christophersorger9782]

Have you heard anything in regards to 7AT ability to handle high WHP? May need to budget for it.

[@ShayHarambe]

I heard they are ehh. Need the flex plate but then after that they handle more power but you gotta build it still. But I could be wrong idk. But flex plate is needed.

Thank you!

[@vqjason5958]

Such an insanely good deal from Switchback... Cant believe he offers free install, if I wasn't 1000mi away from FL i definitely would have hopped on this. Was the CJM return fuel system installed for free as well?

[@ShayHarambe]

Yeah for sure. A free install on a kit like this with all the labor on welding and install. Crazyyyyy good deal. The entire fuel system with pump and top hat install was $100. With a lot of stuff around the enginr coming out it is super easy to install all those lines and stuff.

[@SirenOTS]

It’s expensive don’t get me wrong it’s triple what I paid for my ms3 that I built. But it only makes like 370whp. 22k for 600+whp sounds cheap to me. I love this build and a turbo 370z is my near obtainable dream car

[@ShayHarambe]

Dang thats crazy! What all is done to the ms3 for that price?

[@SirenOTS]

BoostedVQ I got the car really cheap from a neighbor because it was rebuilt. So far it’s got the basics like a 3 inch down pipe with upgraded fuel pump and internals. It’s got a performance short ram air intake, upgraded turbo inlet pipes with a cts4 turbo from cork sport with a mishimoto fmic and a decent computer tune. Other than that small things like upgraded motor mounts and a deep performance exhaust (that sounds like heaven) I believe that’s about it. I’m saving to get a better tune on the dyno because I know I could be making more power with the setup. It’s on 93 pump so next step is E85 or Methanol but I just wanted a daily that’s a little bit of a sleeper. It’s on about 18psi boost on a 3.5 bar Map sensor

[@carloscarrasco9623]

Would you say it would be safe to daily, if I weren’t to push it all the time? I wanna boost and probably keep it at mid 400s

Oh yeah i believe so if you don't mind bad gas mileage.

$300 for a window tint. Sounds like you got screwed

No sir. I got front window tinted too. Front window alone anywhere you go is 100 cause it has to be ceramic. Plus all my windows are ceramic 15%. Sounds like wherever you went you got crappy tint.

[@lion3014]

To be honest no id just get a vr swap from the q60 or get a 435i but if its ur dream car or cash ain’t a problem then definitely worth it, nice build

[@ShayHarambe]

Good points! I'm curious how much that swap does cost. I know noir.tm the KZbinr is doing that swap. And the 435i is definitely a awesome car. I love how those look. I know they weight quite a bit though. With the z its not like it was a dream car of mine. That would be a gt3rs in white :) but ultimately it came down to finding a cheaper car used where the block can handle decent power and the car being light weight where its rear wheel drive. And a 370z basically fit the profile easiest.

[@kenwu7]

I think most people putting a turbo in a car aren't worried about the cash cuz they ain't cheap

Did you have to do anything to the engine or transmission? I have a 2013 370 NISMO and those are the power numbers I want to get. How much power can the stock engine and transmission hold up? (I obviously want to get a better clutch and slave cylinder setup)

@@ShayHarambe the only thing I keep hearing is that to get a lot of power it would be wise to upgrade the rods. I hear the pistons and crank are already pretty strong from the factory. Like I said I want around 5-600 whp

How is the torque low end like under 2500 rpm due to the turbo set up? Is the around the same or different than before?

[@ShayHarambe]

Couldn't tell you. As far as I can tell the same when normal driving. You don't get on it at low rpm with a bigger turbo. You can bog the engine and turbo. Basically didnt give the turbo enough time to spool.

[@zaidmuhammad6343]

@@ShayHarambe Thanks for the quick response. I was just concerned with the response/feedback with the acceleration/torque for normal street driving due to a turbo add in. Since turbos are for higher rpm anyway, does the response time and torque down low get affected I guess.

Normal street driving is basically normal. If you gotta speed up downshift

Have to understand if your a builder/project person no matter the car you will upgrade something just remember a 30k-45k car upgrades will rang from $500-20k but a car thats 55k-100k your looking at 1k-50k for upgrades. So turning a 20k car into a 40k in total price is not that bad for what you want but then buy at 60-80k car then just get a rear diffuser for 2k 🤷🏾‍♂️. It's about what you can afford one... then what you consider fun to get modified
