You could use the injectors, the innovate wideband, and the actual turbo. The emanage stuff I believe is universal so you could probably use it too. Anything as far as the "kit" - in terms of physical piping - you will not be able to use and will need to fabricate your own or have somebody fabricate it for you.

injectors are probably not going to be plug and play.

don't get the emanage unless you're willing to learn how to wire it up on to your ECU..and no...NO ONE..(not even GReddy) can help you or teach you how to wire it up to your car.

just to put this out there...
1 - no company out there is going to make a bolt on turbo kit. if there's one the 3rd gen turbo community would be a lot larger.
2 - there's no short cut if you want to run a turbo...simple as that. you want to play..you gotta pay.
3 - bolt on kits from other car will NOT fit on your car without at least SOME customization so stop looking at the "kits" from other cars and dreaming.

He's got a VE, which has identical injectors to the VQ so the injectors should be plug and play.

Are the injectors top or side feed? Not all VQs used side feed injectors.

Like Dan said there is nothing that comes close to a plug and play so in order to piece together your own system you are going to be knowledgable enough yourself to determine what parts you can adapt to work with your car and goals. I would recommend your next purchase be Nistune and a wideband so you can gain familiarity with their abilities and the management of your engine. This way when it comes time to tuning you aren't scrambling to learn the basics when your turbo.

BTW, buying injectors doesn't count as the beginning of a turbo project.

Yep, totally identical. The fourth gen Maxima at least. Other VQ's may be different (like Maxpwer mentioned). I always swipe easily accessible front bank fourth gen Maxima injectors at the junkyard for easy backups/spares

not negative...just setting your expectation on what you'll need to get and do. can't sit there posting and asking questions on stuff you saw off ebay thinking that you might get it to work...its just not going to happen.

you know how many guys we see on here post they are going turbo and thinks that getting a wastegate or a boost gauge is the start of their build??
