    I dyno the car a few weeks ago after installing HFC - high flow cat. Now I’m getting 352.6 whp and 399.9 wtq. Dang awesome for only bolt on to the hybrid.
    1. Takeda air intake
    2. Ark catback exhaust
    3. Fast Intension HFC
    These 3 bolt on change your driving experience beside power gain and good rev range response across the board.

      Hi I am looking to get a Takeda Intake for my hybrid. I haven't found any good reviews for them on the hybrid models. Do you recommend them? Do you think there'd be a preformance increase from just the Takeda intake alone?

      Also is it possible to run highflow cats without an aftermarket catback exhaust? I can't afford a new exhaust, but I might be able to afford the Cats.

    Hey Guys! As a Hybrid Owner, there is a couple of things to clarify. Check out below this comment!
    There is no Tune for Hybrids - They said, is not worth doing because you will be making power to the gas motor and nothing for the electric motor. The parts are expensive (There is no Aftermarket for Hybrid parts) if something break and is not worth risk any parts of the Hybrid System. Second you will disrupt a harmony between the electric motor and the gas engine which combined is that the power comes from. Adding a super charge is possible, but you will not get what you really want out of it.
    In Paper - VQ 3.5 with 328HP and an extra 67HP 472 Lb-Ft Torque from Electric Motor to the crank. (According to Infitinti)
    See this video - ruclips.net/video/QQ0onLeCm48/видео.html
    In Dyno - Bone Stock Hybrid - 313WHP with 357 Lb-Ft to the Wheels - (Pretty DAMN good for bone stock)
    Fuel Efficiency - NOPE! This car have the same fuel efficiency of a 3.7. A 3.0TT is actually gives better fuel efficiency than the Hybrid. Infiniti said hybrid was meant for performance and NOT for fuel efficiency. However, they do claim to be lower emission. Also, the engine shutting down is annoying, but the cool thing is engine on or not, the torque response is instant. So I dont mind it.
    Totally agree about the missing trunk space, no spare tire and what not. But one thing that can be another reason not to tune a hybrid is that is HEAVY AS HELL. You already have an engine, transmission weight on the car. AWD makes it even heavier. Hybrid Q50s have of all that plus an electric motor and a heavy ass battery in the back seat.
    In overall, raced with a 3.7 stock and the hybrid beat it by 1 car in the quarter mile. Raced with a 3.0TT and the instant tork of the hybrid gets better take off, but then the 3.0TT wins over the hybrid by a half car. Any of 3.7 or 3.0TT tuned, the hybrid will not stand a chance.

    I have a 2015 Q50s hybrid. And i hear what you are saying. I bought it for gas saving but still wanted the power. Then the mod bug got me... with Takeda intake and Ark catback exhaust I’m pushing 346 whp and 379 wtorque. Just installed HFC and it transformed the driving experience with gain through out the rev range. Hoping someone can tune the car there’s so much potential. Thinking abt super charge but will see.

      I love mine too I've had it for 3 years but now I'm a little irritated because I was just told by the dealer at $83,000 mi that my hybrid battery will be going out soon there's no signs or nothing wrong with the car. Periodically the check engine light comes on and I was told due to that and the dealer shoved me away telling me good luck and it's 11,000 from them so I would have to try to find a rebuild one or either sell my car before it goes completely out I don't know what to do at this point but overall it's a good car I have nothing bad to say about it at all except for those hybrid batteries go out anywhere between 80 to 100,000 miles and the warranty only covers 8 years are up to 100,000 miles whichever one is first they knew what they were doing with that 😮‍💨

    • @Obzv6
      @Obzv6 8 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah, these are performance hybrids..
      Infiniti specified that the hybrid is not to save fuel but to add power..
      I believe there is a lot of misinformation and miscalculation going on when it comes to comparison of these hybrid vehicles to other petrol only ones..
      I noticed all the comparison sites are giving different figures when it comes to bhp and torque because due to their rarity there is less concensus on how fast they go 0-60 and how much power they produce..
      People here are saying they beat tesla model 3s in their hybrids and judging from my 2015 rwd q50s hybrid I'm quite sure I can get from 0-60 in just over 4 seconds in manual mode..
      But online they say 5.1 seconds..
      Unless we are referring to a different car I really don't see what the hurry is to tune these cars..
      I have noticed that some q50s on RUclips have way smaller disk brakes than mine, mine are huge..
      I wonder if we are all regretting to different trims..

    Admintuning Moncef can tune your Q50 hybrid through Uprev. The HFC and Catback are the exactly same as 3.7 q50. I've seen some stock tune q50 making 350whp just with test pipes and catback.

    Speaking of gas mileage. I wanted to see what others are getting on highway miles. I'm not sure if my car is giving the wrong mpg reading or not. I put my 18' Q50 Luxe 3.0t RWD on cruise control at 65mph, reset my mpg and I was getting 37.8mpg over a 24 mile stretch. I had personal driving set, my driving settings were on eco transmission/drivetrain and steering on sport. I maybe had a little bit of tailwind, 5 to 10 mph maybe. Has anyone ever gotten mileage this high?

      The electric motor is most likely a brushless motor like most modern motors. Brushed motors(dc starters) would require replacement. Brushless 3+ phase motors tends to last the life of the car. The batteries would die far sooner than the motors failing. What I would be wary of is the clutch packs and the batteries. The batteries should last until warranty. Not sure how much it would be to replace out of warranty.

    You can’t grow your channel if you actually don’t know the product. This is a performance hybrid Q 50 NM 35H. It was a product that Infiniti teamed up with their Formula One driver to make a unique performance model. It was not intended to save you tons of fuel. It was intended on performance. You’ve lost all credibility and I hate to say that because I want to see everybody flourish and succeed but you really should research your information before you just start shooting from the hip. The Infiniti hybrid can do zero 60 in 4.8 seconds. It was not solely intended for fuel mileage. I mean this with the best intentions but please get your game up
