VK56 in a R31, then slap one of these kits on it.....Yeah Boi !!

[@TheCuttz1984]

So glad to finally see some decent mods for this engine. Can't wait for some to now do conversions.

[@NismoSupra]

NICE! Who would dislike this video!? The gains are awesome! Low boost nets 117 whp and the power curve is insane. Additionally, that Torque is primal.

[@maxima_997]

Love it. The power and smoothness of a VK56 with a Harrop Supercharger. Complete win!

[@DRTMaverick]

I'll be putting a VK56 in my Nissan Xterra soon as the weight of the vehicle is drastically more now that it's armored, plus I want to pull a trailer. A kit like this would make treks to high elevations (7000-8000ft elevation) easy. Especially offroading.

[@b20bz]

I have a 05 Nissan Xterra lmk if it was a good idea so I can do the same :)

[@dumdumbrown4225]

That V8 is an absolute audiophile joy 🤘🏽

[@Bru946]

I want one for my titan!

[@theozBandit]

ONE OF THE BEST SUPERCHARGER KITS IN THE WORLD - PERIOD!! With the amount of mods now being done to the pevious y61 Patrols to have their 3L DOHC CRD Diesels safely running 200rwkw/800rwnm...I cant wait for the near future when everyone starts updating to these Patrols and start fitting these guys performance kits and other mods...get ready world! 👍

[@geluix69]

I’d love to swap a VK56 in my Ford . So reliable.

[@tighematthew]

17 Toyota owners dislike

[@joshthomas2536]

I'm a Hilux owner and I'm in love with these. The Patrol has always been a great piece of machinery. Use to have a GQ which unfortunately had rolled at 100kmh. Both rear windows stayed in and survived, back passenger windows (3rd row) popped out during the roll and didn't break, and the 2nd row windows survived despite the roof being on a 45 degree angle, fuck me I was amazed

[@livenloud6697]

Nice clean set up👍 fantastic results for such low boost and amazing flow pressures

[@Matucks]

Xterra with a Titan V8 swap and one of these is a fun vehicle!

[@Drixa0]

Amazing engineering. Well done!

[@DASHOffRoad]

Will definitely have some form of forced induction happening to my Patrol. I would be keen to learn the benefits and drawbacks on supercharging compared to putting on a turbo.

[@fightbeatvideo]

PD supercharger generally has much better low down torque, less lag in power delivery, better for offroading than turbo. Harrop are the business.

[@kailinperrott306]

turbos are pretty efficient now, although, inlet temps get considerably hotter then supercharged setups & they generally require less maintenance then a turbo setup. me personally for what this vehicle is going to be used for, I would go supercharged, for out right performance and the kick from a turbocharged setup I would have it in something for more street/track type vehicle

[@vongdong10]

First off is a supercharger kit is much cheaper and easier to install as there's much less parts, PD supercharger has instant boost and I believe there is less underbonnet heat. Downside of supercharging is they're not as efficient as a turbo system and suffer from heatsoak.

[@azza9575]

Another thing to keep in mind is superchargers hammer your bearings due to the load it places on the crankshaft

[@nickhatzi7503]

Can't wait for the review

[@jameskarl424]

Would love this in my NV3500.

[@ryand951]

Agreed! Can't believe I'm wanting to supercharge my cargo van haha

[@Zeppelinlv2007]

I have a qx56, I would love to do this to my vk56DE. What concerns me though is the health of the automatic transmission. I'm looking for a very mild upgrade from the low end. Mainly for passing and accelerating with a loaded passengers and cargo. Stock 315 horsepower/235 kw is nice, but when the SUV is fully loaded the low end power is lacking.

[@Broke2FastGarage]

Check out level 10 transmissions....

[@CODskeetbangblow]

Is there a 2019 gas titan setup? Very interested in stage 2 setup.. please reply

[@ReduxGarage]

Can you tell us the overall height measurement of the engine? From bottom of oil pan to top of SC?

[@marekbusta2mordy-silver-po292]

[@juniortheoriginal214]

When will yall make one for a infiniti m56 sedan 5.6 liter????

[@nasserbrn]

Will the stock gearbox handle this?

[@TheWretchedWorld]

It will be fine. I assume they remap the transmission upping line pressures etc to prolong clutch life. The Jatco in these is a very heavy duty unit. After all it has to cope with 2.7+ tonnes of weight and a powerful v8.

[@rayclinton5145]

i have a 2019v nissan titan sv,whats the best super charger for my truck.i have a tuner and catback exhaust with longh tube headers

Sounds so good.

[@Danimal3993]

is it possible to use one of these kits on my VK56VD infiniti M56x sedan? I would love 500 AWD HP

[@badlandz2321]

😭😭I was thinking the same thing

[@stevenneese2823]

Please answer this Harrop. I would absolutely put one on my M56S as well. Burnout machine!

[@stevenneese2823]

Also, assume the dual intakes of the M56/q70 would be a custom project, and I'm pretty sure that roots style charger isnt going to fit under the stock hood

[@B350gtG]

Any possibility that this could be mated to a VK50VE?

[@razoogalateeqi9401]

yes

[@razoogalateeqi9401]

you can check the description

[@iwayne34]

Will this work on infiniti m56x , please very interested and have a group of 14 m56x members

[@Sig721Tau]

So, this kit will work with the American version of the Nissan Titan?

[@ameenbakare2316]

Harrop, do you guys support the VK50VE?

[@Sir.VicsMasher]

I really wish this was available for the VK50 in the Infiniti FX50 (QX70 5.0L). I'm a hot rod dad with a $15k vehicle budget who's about to buy a FX50, can't find a better more reliable Man Van in the price range.

[@johnstuart563]

Is this compatible is with the 2020 Infiniti QX80? I assume that it is.

[@juniorgarza8265]

Can this be used on the Infiniti m56/Q70 5.6???

[@offroad2013]

How does the transmission hold up to the added power? I'm considering doing this to my gas titan xd but just curious on how long the 7 speed would last.

[@Zeppelinlv2007]

Same here. Wonder how long my qx56 5-speed would last.

[@Drpoblo]

Will this fit on an infiniti m56x since its the same engine?

[@eddiesworld8185]

Is it compatible with a 2014 Titan?

[@VertigoGTI]

Thank you for offering a well designed and engineered SC kit for the VK56VD. Is there a chance that this is compatible with other platforms with the same engine? Very interested to see if this can be fitted to the current generation Infiniti Q70/Nissan Fuga with the V8. Curious to see if there'd be more interest in the US for the Y51 platform; we have an odd void for large performance sedans in the US. If more people knew there was a proper solution for the VK in the US, I think the M56 and Q70 would have a larger following.

[@msengineeringdavid3702]

ppl already know this quit assuming.

[@jaimiestroomer1107]

[@DRTMaverick]

How much is this with the DE kit? I am trying to source a VD but DE's are easier here stateside since the VD is so new.

[@raycimbalnik5159]

Does this kit block or replace the factory radiator or does the air pass through the new cooler and still cool the factory radiator?

Imagine your Stage2 with long tube headers 🤔

[@mtyler7807]

would that align to a vk45de

[@theclinchdrive]

What’s the cost of a pulley upgrade and fuel stage two ? I couldn’t locate it on the harrop website. I’m running the 2300 on my Y62 and wouldn’t mind upgrading along with Remapping the oem ecu.

[@troyus111]

Great video. How do superchargers go in a 4wd environment where you are stuck or moving slowly for extended periods with little air flow over rads to cool the engine down?

[@noelscammell662]

You got to really wonder with the low numbers sold in OZ. How will they ever get their money back in R & D on this vehicle. On the supercharger development

[@gavinr9107]

It supports the Armada (Patrol) variant and Titan models too, a global platform. Designing the parts isn't that time consuming with CNC/CAD technology available. Then it's a matter of tuning to suit. I am confident most of the cost involved will be recouped with the amount of total sales........

[@CHINGY1993]

Not even made for australia we such a small fish in the ocean. Lucky to see one of these a week on the roads here lol Arab countries usa whould be big customers for them

[@jasonswift7098]

I don't think they will.

[@gilvietor1918]

They're starting to be seen here quite often in the states. I'm guessing they are hoping to sell them to us USA customers. I came close to purchasing this vehicle, but really wanted the version you all can get, with the off road bits. Went with a LC200, but I swear that Armada has some serious appeal inside and out.

[@ElectroG33k]

Well seeing as this engine is starting to finally be seen and used extensively in actual racecars I doubt they're going to have an issue. This engine is the new LS

HOW TO ORDER .. DOES IT INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS? DO I NEED TO CHANGE THE STOCK CHIP OR RETUNE AFTER INSTALLING STAGE 1?

[@Joe-zc6ec]

Would the upgraded mechanical pump on the vk56vd work on the vk45dd ?

[@FarmerDrew]

$7.7k USD for the kit? And does that include literally everything needed for installation? Is it true bolt on, or do pistons/rods/rings/etc have to change? What about ECU? Thank you! Very interested. I tow 8k lbs in a dump trailer, up to 5 of those loads a day with my VK56. I have been for almost 2 years. People at the quarry and jobsites look at me like I have 3 heads when I roll past with 4 tons of gravel being towed with my Nissan.
