I have around 122k miles on the Maxima and I love turbos! My roommate has a GMC Typhoon and I know what turbos are capable of. Do I have too many miles to get the turbo kit. Should I wait to blow the engine and than go. DAMN! Maxima engines last forever too. Let me know if 'yall think its worth it. Thanks.

 

...yes, Maxima engines are virtually indestructable, even with abuse, they'll go to around 300k miles.

Wait until some internal engine part blows, then start building your motor's internals up. Or if you got $$$ to spend now, do it now.

Buy/order a VQ30DET from www.nippon-motors.com. After that spend $2k to have it installed properly.

 

I don't think 122K is too many miles if you want to boost your car with Nitrous, S/C or turbo. If the car still has good compression and has been taken care of with regular oil changes, you should be fine. Even if you blow your engine, engines CAN be rebuilt ! That's what I plan to do if mine blows!

I am hoping to do a built motor sometime in the future.

 

What do you expect from your turbo, Nigel? 13's? I would love to see some track runs.
