Alpha 4.4L Big-Bore Crate GT-R Engine
We have successfully applied our race-winning experience to the GT-R’s VR38 to bring you the pinnacle in engine programs. By developing AMS proprietary engine components we have engineered the strongest, most advanced VR38 engines available for your GT-R and we have the World Records to back it up.
The Pinnacle VR38 Engine For Upgraded Turbos
By adding a billet stroker crank to our already potent 4.0L Big-Bore Engine we have raised the bar once again. When changing to larger turbos there is always a tradeoff of low end grunt for increased top-end power. To remedy this our 4.4 liter Big-Bore Stroker Engine increases displacement by 14% which adds horsepower and most importantly asphalt shredding torque. The increased bore and stroke coupled with an elevated compression ratio produces more low end torque which considerably reduces turbo lag and improves boost response. The Alpha 4.4L picks up an additional 15-20% more torque achieving a 700-1000 rpm improvement in turbo spool up time when compared to its 3.8L counterpart! You can now have your cake and eat it too!
Alpha Engineering Provides The Only Fortified Engine Block Available
Each Alpha Big-Bore Race Engine has been strategically strengthened to support the monstrous power and torque capable with our Alpha Packages. As the GT-R aftermarket companies started pushing the VR38 harder we began to see some engine blocks cracking at 800+ torque levels. Our Engineering Team quickly dissected and diagnosed the problem. To overcome the situation they developed a unique, proprietary method to reinforce the block. You wonÂ’t find this in the competitors engines as it was developed here at Alpha Performance and is exclusively available in the Alpha Premium Engine Package.
Our Race Winning Experience Creates Higher Standards
To further improve the VR38 platform, each block deck is machined to receive a copper o-ring to establish a better combustion seal. Every Alpha 4.4 Race Engine is then precisely balanced, blueprinted and hand assembled to AMSÂ’ exacting standards. Before assembly each block is checked for correct dimensions, cylinder bore, mains, block flatness, etcÂ… to guarantee you get the best foundation for your new engine.
Complete Crate Engine For Ease Of Installation
The Alpha 4.4 Big-Bore Stroker Crate Engine comes complete and sealed from valve covers to oil pan. The engine is timed and the front covers installed so all of the hard work is already done for you making your engine swap a bolt-in affair.
