This exquisite example of a GTR came in by way looking for more power. \u00a0We were here to help make that possible. \u00a0Already equipped with a 5Zigen catback and an off the self Cobb tune we proceeded to go to work.<\/p>\n

First thing’s first. \u00a0The 2012+ GTRs came from the factory with larger turbo inlet pipes. \u00a0We took the opportunity to port the 2012 inlet pipe to better match the factory turbo inlet opening (pictured on the right). \u00a0You can see the huge difference on the left side. \u00a0Driver side turbo pipes.<\/p>\n

Passenger side turbo inlets. \u00a02009-2011 pipe on the left and our ported 2012+ pipe on the right.<\/p>\n

After the larger inlets were installed, a SZ 3″ intake was also installed.<\/p>\n

\"photo_4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Larger 1100cc fuel injectors installed into the factory fuel rail so we can run ethanol.<\/p>\n

Secondary pump was upgraded with a Walbro “485”.<\/p>\n

It’s very hard to see in this picture, but right behind the intake manifold we installed our own flex fuel sensor kit. \u00a0We went after a factory look, no one would know any better that this GTR came factory a flex fuel vehicle. \u00a0Using EcuTek, we can modify the factory Nissan ECU to also perform flex fuel duties. \u00a0The sensor reports back to the ECU and the appropriate changes are made to run on any mixture of gasoline and ethanol!<\/p>\n

Our first SZ\\FI Open Y-Pipe with flex joints.<\/p>\n

\"photo_20\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ready for action! \u00a0Now that its ready for flex fuel we tuned on 91 octane then switched to E85, followed by different mixtures.<\/p>\n

\"91\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our results on our wonderful 91 octane fuel.<\/p>\n

\"e85\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

E85 tune. \u00a0We dialed this monster back too! \u00a0We could have easily hit 700 torque and 660 whp.<\/p>\n

A GTR dressed in red is very sexy. \u00a0Aided by SSR wheels and carbon fiber bits.<\/p>\n
