It’s no off the shelf model either, but customized by the folks at Eaton just for this V6. This is a perfect match, also there are modification in car by Nissan engineers on V6. As a result a thumping 210 horsepower and 246 lb-ft of torque. And a boost that is immediate, consistent, and on tap at any altitude.
