Hey I am thinking about Turbo Charging My Maxima ....I need to know how much boost the stock injectors can take... I am going to turbo charge it and run a 50 shot NOS... by the end of next month I hope to have my car with ..........
Garret T3 Turbo..
50 Shot Nos..
Bigger injectors if I find them..
2/12 inch downpipe ..
str8 through exhaust...
ported and polished head, intake manifold
hopefully find a bigger throttle body...
boost controller
HKS SS BOV
and a FMIC
.................................................. ....................

What ya think I could possibly run in the 1/4 mile this summer.....
and what do ya think I can and can't do with the motor.. and what is my limits to the motor without blowing it ..........

 

Boy that sure is a nice list of goodies there. It's a shame that the more important parts critical to running the boost a T3T4 and a big front mount IC are capable of aren't on your list.

 

IM not sure what ya mean by that.........

 

ahhhh hahaaahahahhahahahahahahahahaha You for real dude.

 

don't worry you just answered your own question.....

 

It seems everyday there is a thread about turbocharging our Maxes. That leaves a lot of threads to use the search function for. You could always take Sudesh's idea.

 

No see the part I don't understand is the fact that he said something about a t3/t4 I am talkin about a t3..........look I just got my maxima I do not really know anything about them ...........I just sold my 87 Crx...with a ZC motor.. forged pistons.. 50 shot nos..garret t3/t4 turbo..starion fmic...integ tranny and driveshafts...mistu 1st gen bov...2/12 inch exhaust..ported and polished head...titanium valve springs and a lil other free mods......
So like I was sayin any help would be appreciative

 

Boosting a Max is easy, all I did is put a Craftsman 25 gallon air compressor in my trunk and ran the hose up to my throttle body - 200 PSI baby! With this setup I'm running 8's in the quarter mile with about 1500 fwhp.

 

LOL come on man lets be serious ............

 

maybe DSMtalk.com
your idea may fit better there,as far as i know we dont use T3s AND nitrous on this board
for real though,if you wanna go fast cheap and dont care about creature comforts,get a 1st generation diamond star,maximas arent very simple to turbocharge

 

hey BB... i was browsing your profile...you have your max as a GLE. there is only a SE and GXE in 91. if you have a GXE then it's safe to assume you have an auto and therefore i seriously doubt you'll be running boost + Nitrous without either a 5spd swap or heavy tranny fortification. BTW i also noticed you're in the Harrisburg area...click the link in my sig

 

not simple, but it's been proven possible. this guy actually seems like he might really get this done, if someone that knows anything about it would HELP him. and he could search, but then he'd find a whole bunch of threads full of people flaming newbies who want boost and telling them to search...and the cycle continues...let's make some helpful posts here so people in the future can search and actually find something...

 

Thanx Man .. I need help with this and I am definately serious about it ....I always heard of everybody with SC Maximas.. I wanna be a lil different.. so like I said if somebody can help Please Let Me KNOW...
If anything you can E-mail me at (phatdaddy187@aol.com)

THANX

 

no problem. i know guy in the 4th gen forum that just spent 3200 on his sc. i've heard people here say that it would cost about 4-5g's for the custom turbo on a 3rd gen for someone to do it for you. if i had 5000, i'd hella turbo my car. but if i were you i'd search around and find out who the guys are that are here that turbo'd their cars and try to contact them directly and do some research on the whole idea too first.

 

Yeah, you're right. T3 turboes are for girls. Real men use T3/T4 hybrids and a wet shot. You guys are way off on your prices and concepts of turbocharging. Instead of spending $50 on a set of plug wires maybe you should hit Barnes & Nobles and pick up a good turbo book. You'll learn a lot..

BTW, the 9(or 8 or 7 or whatever) second A'pexi Drag Skyline uses a compression ratio of 9:1 and runs close to 30 lbs of boost. Don't tell me it isn't possible to run 15 on street gas. Its all in the tuning, baby!

And so concludes Maximamike's monthly turbo post. For further discussion email Skymax. Hahahahaha..

 

Just a comment, but do you realize all those goodies will run you well over $4 grand?

and lemme ask you a really stupid question.. you ran a T3/T4 on your Honda.. with a sub-2L engine. now you're going to a bigger engine. don't you think it would be wise to use a turbo the same size or bigger? Garret T3s are cheap and handy, but they're not optimal for this engine. way too much airflow needed for it to keep up without turning the charged air into superheated plasma..

 

 

It'll Cost me about 4-5G's If I had someone do all the custom work for me ............I own a garage called Boosted Motorsports....so I have alot of help with these things.. and a couple of my friends own turbo Z's so I guess he knows about these motors a lil

 

I remember seeing a pearl somewhere in all the flames on turbos... From what I understand mtcookson *may* be able to help you out...
Or try going to http://www.electricsupercharger.com

 

hes not gonna get his questions answered here,he needs to go to a serious shop who deals with this kind of work,who can examine his motor and his needs and can decide just how possible it is,it has been proven possible,but not probable,im not the type to say you cant do it,as we know with the money anything can be done,its been posted on here that a turbo maxima wouldnt really be a good daily driver,or at least as good as it is without forced induction,but what do i know...i dont have a turbo maxima,but using the search is only a start
to a project like this,if your serious,good luck,id like to see a turbo VG

 

well check his last post, he says he owns a shop called "Boosted Motorsports"....I mean I guess the name holds truth to what they do....I guess??

 

well gee...he should be on here selling the T3 turbo kit for the VG instead of asking US of all people(people who wish they had turbos) how fast it can be with it also

 

Exactly! I dunno about you but I smell bull excriment....

 

I would recommend "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell, great book.

 

haha, i do hope you tell him you're joking.

 

how about the brendon90gxe turbo?? i believe its an easy install but not sure about the power gains...i believe its affordable too

 

About what, you or the supercharger?
Hehe, if it's about you, I was just repeating what I saw, trying to sound important...
About the supercharger, I am half joking, the other half of me is thinking about getting it and running some tests, I heard that it *does* work, just not well... And they're not making any huge claims about it, so I dunno...

 

yeah...i concur.
owns a shop but have no effin clue what's going on. it's like you taking your car for service and the mechanic asks you how to do it. wtf is that!!??

if you're in the business then show us what you got. don't just shoot off a grocery list of "parts" and ask how to put it together. i can read turbo/scc/superstreet..etc etc and make a list of parts myself. if you don't understand then say u don't..but don't come on here and say that you want to turbo a maxima and have a shop that (i assume) does forced induction applications.

show us some real research. let's see some numbers you crunched. you guys wonder why people kept on getting flamed when turbo discussion is brought up right? because everyone says "i'm going to do this..and do that"...pleaseeee..talk is cheap. show us what you have done. the best is "how do i turbo my car"...u noticed that's a instant flame..NO ONE will show u how to do it. it's not a bolt on part..there's no bolt on turbo, it's all custom work (most of it).

come out and say...i've done this so far..show us pics...we can help you or share ideas and etc. none of the BS "my camera broke".."my scanner broke"...BULL$HIT...you can afford a custom turbo on your can but can't afford a 6 dollar camera from a store...$13 to develope the film..and $5 bucks at a local kinkos (copying place w/ scanner access) for scanner?

how many posts u see about people saying they have a turbo in their car...running X's in the qtr..and no pics to prove it.
anyone want to take a guess how many times the post "how can i put a 300ZX TT engine in my max" have been posted?

ok i'm getting off the soap box.

 

this was my first clue as well.."the list" thing always throws me! theres just something about someone who comes on here out of no where with the "brand name list" thats makes me smell BS......

 

about me.
