Datsun Europe and their Datsun 280Z visited KMS Engine in Henryków-Urocze, Poland for some engine work and dyno. The turbocharged L28E inline-six features a stock bottom-end, MN47 head, MLS head gasket, ARP head bolts, and custom intake and exhaust manifolds. It also uses an AEM methanol injection system, Audi drive-by-wire throttle body, and Audi ignition coils. The engine made 401 hp and 581 Nm (428 lb-ft) of torque on 1.25 bar (18.1 psi) of boost on a GTX3076R turbocharger and Ecumaster EMU ECU. Datsun Europe’s next step is to install a Subaru R180 differential with 3.54 gears.
