Being that it's a liquid/air and not a Air/Air. I would say yes it's OK to wrap them to prevent heat soak. But then again it being liquid, it could possibly force the intercoolers to retain heat more. Since some air flow over the metal bodies could pull heat away too. I'm also genuinely curious as to what AMS has tested. I always been iffy with heat exchangers.
This is not something that we have tested so unfortunately we can't say one way or the other. We'll pass along your suggestion to the R&D team for future testing. Thanks!
@@AMSPerformance Yes thank you that would be appreciated there’s a lot of Q 50s and Q 60s out there that would like to know thank you again for your time
They sound amazing if nothing else at all...people can keep their cars that sound like trucks...I'll take this ANY day. lol Can't wait to see what you guys do with the new Z!!
Do you guys see any issues long term on cars at this power level with no blow off or bypass valves? I have essentially the same setup as your RA 500 package and currently making like 450/530 whp/wtq. Basically as much power as I can make on the stock turbos right now, but I don’t have BOVs. Initially my tune was setup so the throttle doesn’t close immediately to try and save on the thrust bearings in my stock turbos until I’m ready for Stage 2’s but at times that got a bit hairy because the car wanted to keep pushing for a half second after you let off from WOT. So now I’m setup so when I get off the pedal the TB closes immediately but I know all that pressure going back to the turbos can’t be good. Especially considering the stock boost level on a Pure/Luxe is like 8psi and a RS is like 14 but I’m running around 18psi now. This is the only turbo car I’ve ever had with no blow off or bypass setup so it’s new to me. I did start running 5w30 rather than the 0w20 hoping that would help a bit.
@AMS Performance: When you guys get a project in to do a built VR30, can y'all do a detailed video of the engine teardown and rebuild? I think that would be a really awesome video.
E85 is a type of fuel. Premium gas (typically 91 or 93 octane) is also a type of fuel. If you are asking if you are able to use premium gas in a car tuned to take E85, it’s not ideal. The spark timing is completely different as well as a host of other factors that not only reduce efficiency but also may put parts of the car in jeopardy. If you’re planning on only running E85 and have reliable access to it anywhere you go, then go ahead. Otherwise, just go for a 91/93 tune (which is what I recommend for most people wanting power) or a flex fuel tune if you so desire.
Every single build could vary in cost depending on the options the customer is choosing. If you would like prices, our RA packages are listed on our website!
Is there a big difference in power if i buy a non redsport and tune it vs a red sport? I guess what i am asking is, will the redsport be alot more powerfull after mod vs a non redsport. Thx nice builds!
Yeah - had a snow storm at the grand canyon, walked out to my Z, and surprise 3-5" of fresh snow... was fun going 25mph doggin it in 3rd gear for 2 hours in worn down ps4s tires... never again!! Learned that if you see 10-15% humidity in the forecast during the winter = be prepared. I suspect the horrible winter behavior of the 370z on snow has to do with being staggered and the rear differential... easily the worst vehicle I've ever delt with in the snow... my $800 pos mazda college student vehicle did much better, and it was a total $hitbox.
@@07wrxtr1 its the tires bro... get some winters on it and theyre actually pretty decent in the snow. worn down summers in the winter is asking for trouble
From their site this package is : "Red Alpha Cold Air Intake System, Red Alpha Heat Exchanger, Red Alpha Full Downpipes, Red Alpha High and Low Pressure Fuel Pumps, EcuTek Bluetooth Kit, the RA 500 E85 Tune. I'm not sure if they left the exhaust out of this package but it sounds like you need a heat exchanger, downpipes, fuel pumps and an e85 tune to make closer to 500whp.
@@Unplugged704 the low boost vr30 is mechanically identical to the RS in everyway except boost pressure. the RS has turbine speed sensors but the low output engine also has the capability to monitor shaft speed, it just does it differently.
So what is AMS' stand on BOV's? They're not in any of your packages and from recent talk in the forum's, they're not needed and said to be detrimental to the VR30 platform by many tuners. The red Q50 didn't appear to have them and the blue Q60 did. Did these 2 cars have the exact same builds, except for the BOV's? 20HP difference between the two cars on the dyno.

Oof, that red Q50 with the mbrp exhaust sounds terrible lmao. YIKES. the blue q60 doesnt sound much better with the pipes installed. both systems have so much rasp, ugh :(
I read that BOV on a MAF system could potentially cause really rich engine running conditions. Since most of the air read by the MAF gets dumped to atmosphere before mixing with the fuel.
For the price of ams mods and tune to only get 200hp lol not worth it it's way too heavy. B58 has 380whp stock and with maybe 2k in mods 500whp and 500wtq

When is the air to air intercooler kit coming?

cant wait for my canned tune for my Q.
How much does it cost for whole parts ( including both hardware and software) ?
Nice work. How come the Q60 which isn't the RS400 made more power than the Q50 RS400? assurming you guys made the same mods to both?
Does the red q50 have a cat back and down pipes?
Can’t wait for you guys to start R&D on a 400z 👌🔥
They already did, its the same VR30 engine, so a lot of the mods that work on the Q50 will work on the 400z
No such car as "400Z"
It's just called the Nissan Z
My god what exhaust is in the blue q60 and was it 3 inch?
Turbo kits for q50 please!
Can you adjust the tune for altitude? I’m in NM. 6500 ft above sea level minimum. 8500 when I go up north.
Hello guys I have a Q60, just wondering how much do you charge for the RA 500 package with all the work included?
To bad the Nissan Z won’t have a D-tuned GTR 3.8 in it. Even so on E85 / Meth Intake/Exhaust/Tune could net 550WHP. That’s a fun street car!!
How’s the reliability on em at that 500 whp mark
1:45 reminds me of Garth (Dana Carvey)
Will it make more with Full down pipes??
What exhaust did the q50 have
I know it a small 2.5 g25 2012 Infiniti but I want try some of this mod with heat exchanger with a different differential
Wow! Wonder if Lexus 2IS will get one of these….
asking for a friend! 😂😂
Hi guys, I have a 2017 q60 red sport. How much do you charge for the R500 package including install? And how long does it take?
Thank you so much!
Great job my Europe Q60s twin Turbo tuned ?
what about yatco transmisson on this tuned red sport? Will it survive it ?
allegedly the 9-speed for the new Z should be a bit more robust.... personally I'll never own another automatic unless it's a true pdk or ZF in terms of reliability
what kinda exhaust is on that q60. Where can I buy one?
What lip is that on the red q50???
No downpipes at all?
Does anyone know where I can get this splitter? 3:13
Do you have to build the automatic trans that's on the VR30 to hold 500WHP or is that what the stock trans is max rated at?
Simple driveshaft upgrade and billet flexplate and it’ll hold up fine. The 7AT might not be a DCT but it’s relatively strong till around 750whp 530-550wtq

Great video I have a Q 60 I want to know is it OK to wrap the intercoolers to keep the engine temperatures away from them

But how reliable is that 500whp on this car can you daily it comparing to the n55 and b58s for 500WHP daily
It holds up pretty damn good. I think that's about the limit though, personally I wouldn't go past 500whp with stock internals on these cars.
You guys have parts for the 3.7 vhr q50?
Sorry Timothy, but we do not make anything for the 3.7. Only the VR30.
