Whats a good Engine to put in a 95 MAX?!?
Hey you all! I just would like to know what engine would be convinient to put in my max. Since my Enginge has 173,663 miles. That engine has taken a beating. Ive taken it to the track its gotten 16.4 secs :S auto transmission. I wish they woulda got me a stick shift... Anyways i would like to hear your guys inputs on what engine would be perfect for power and reasonable for fitment. Thanks.

My engine has 230k, it's still fresh .. don't let the miles fool you.
DEK and VQ35 .. check the all motors forum ... Judging by your post .. The 3.5L won't exactly be convenient for you
Check your codes, or lose some weight, your car should be capable of better times.

Your engine should be fine at that mileage, just because you didn't get a good track time doesn't mean it's the mileage on the engine. When was the last time you did a full tune up? Plugs, air and fuel filter,etc? Ever cleaned the throttle body? Ever run seafoam? Besides you are only like 1 sec behind the stated stock 15:5, that could have been a reaction time thing.

The VQ35DE is the better swap but it isnt a bolt on. If your serious about a swap and you live in the northeast, contact Tilley. He has done a few swaps.

So you guys think i should do a compression test? Yes i have done a tune up on the car myself. I bought my car totally f-ed up engine wise.everything was clogged it had old transmission fluid everything. I cleaned the injectors cleaned the manifold. cleaned the intake. Ive done a bunch of stuff to it. In Track time wise i believe its the weight on my car... :S I mean the infiniti g35 rims are heavy and my sub as well and also the spare tire. Also how much would a compression test run for. Also what do i need to get it fixed if i have any problems. Although i bought some engine restorer for my cars oil. I've been putting that stuff in every oil change im guessing that helps my engine. Would changing the oil more often with such high milage be a good idea to do? Like every 3k miles. cause i do it at every 5k miles. I mean id like to hear ya'lls input im sorry but im still a tad bit newbie. I mean where i live there isnt very many places for car tuning. Since i live in the border of Tex and Mex. I still find it sad. People that race here; they all race low riders and new mustangs :S i dont see many imports Well let me know what i can do to bring up this max a bit better. Thanx

You can turbo a regular VQ30DE as they are. While they can handle a fair amount of boost as-is, they won't handle it as well and for the same mileage as a motor designed and built for running boost.
