Jwt Pop Charger Or Not?

hey guys,

Bout to order some mods online....

I am choosing between the following 2 combinations: 1. Motordyne plenum + z-tube or 2. Motordyne plenum + z-tube+ jwt pop charger.

I've got an 5AT, which I consider a 'cruiser' rather than a 'muscle' car. Does anybody think the JWT pop charger could be too loud? Ive already got a fujitsubo exhaust which makes some decent sound at high rpm.

Also will excluding the pop charger mean I will get less overall power gains? Ive read the plenum/ztube/jwt can add 15kw to the wheels...

I just want to ensure my car keeps its character I guess...

cheers,

Danny

I found my Popcharger only made my Z33 louder past like 3000RPM. Around town, you shouldn't even notice it.

Up in the rev range it gives the engine one hell of a nice note. I got compliments from everyone I drove past at WOT.

hi,

Just wondering what power gains did u get? I heard in some cases there is a loss of power down low?

Not sure...

share your experiences

Paul I sure I have ; )

I was referring to the Fujita filter..

no doubt the jwt/ztube combo adds some some power.

my only concern is if the sound is 2 loud, but seems like under 3000 I should be ok.

cant wait for the extra 15kw....

because the stillen are popular as well as the JWT and also help prevent with loss of power from heatsoak. The fujita and jwt will cause you to some power loss due to heatsoak without proper heatshield.

So far from my knowledge and the G35driver.com, that JWT are more popular for the 350z owner due to the hole intake at the front of the beam, while the V35 not as good. G35 in USA seems alot more popular using the stillen, being the one that having a good heatshield and prevention of heatloss. Also help with the problem of getting defect by cops too.

This is purely owners choice, if you just want sound then JWT pop charger. if you want sound and less chance of power loss, then go for stillen.

I just want the OEM looks and don't want trouble from coppers as well or even upgrade to the 06+ rev up intake box.

cheers

    • The price isn't the issue, it's how hard my fuel pump is to remove now. I fabricated a custom bracket so my pump sits on the very bottom of the tank (I ran the tank down to 5L remaining to test it, works well). But it is a fkn NIGHTMARE to get the pump down into the tank now =/ words can't describe how much I hate fighting with the fuel pump/hanger now. The other issue is reliability, I'm driving down for WTA in a couple of months, I'd be less then impressed if I was half way to Sydney from Brisbane and my pump fails again =/ The other issue I had was my car battery was slowly failing, with low battery voltage my fuel pump couldn't keep up with what the reg was asking from it. I've replaced the battery and my fuel pressure is back to being perfect.  As for the low voltage situation that killed my previous battery, I've got a 150amp alternator sitting on my desk waiting to go in. Fingers crossed that will sort that issue. 
    • OK so I just bidded $500 on an R33 GTS4 that no one seems to want. Waiting on a call from the agent to see if I won. 32 GTS4 is for sale. I can't deal with the temptation to mod it.
    • Might be there for work later in the year. Wouldn't mind catching up with you fellas - can't have too many beers, but will consume copious amounts of takoyaki while executing an asian squat on the side of the road while you blokes sort out your hangovers.
    • I know one example is a anecdote not data, but I'm running the same Aeroflow 525 at full voltage through a regular relay, and while I've had other fuel problems including melting the factory fuel hat, the pump itself has been fine for years. Of course, they aren't *that* expensive these days, you could swap in a new one and see if the issue is resolve. I think you had a previous thread about fuel problems, have you been monitoring and logging fuel pressure? Is there anything voltage related (for example does the voltage go up when the pressure goes down)
