Manifold, turbo flange, wastegate, turbo, downpipe, flex section...you know, the usual turbo stuff

SSR, I'm glad you folks are moving the ball on this as quickly as you are. If everything keeps progressing like it seems it is, I'll be using your kit on my car instead of making my own (but I might need to talk to you about the flange and some other details...)

Look like it time for me to start shopping for a 2k2 or 2k3.

Vette, Vipers and Cobras it's almost time to bow down.

...You might be surprised. If you baby it from a roll, and have a decent amout of boost, you can have many v8's reading your rear plates.....not a Viper or Z06 .... but for sure most Stangs and LS1's....

Only people like yourself, who do not know how to extract the total potential from the chassis will lose those races...

Why is it everyone keeps asking how much boost will this give? Seems like people got no idea how a turbo works then. Not being rude, but if you ask that question, then it seems clear the turbo kit is not for you cause you may not fully understand what it does and what the problems can be and dangers.

A turbokit can make 2bar boost if you want, just dont mean the engine or internals is going to handle it. The wastegate has a spring inside it probably somewhere from 7-9psi. Put a manual boost controller or electronic and take that over 2bar (28psi.)

Seems pretty evident that boost is not for certain people on this board. Its not a matter of just slapping it on and hauling azz. Cause soon after that you will be hauling the max to a garage for a new engine.

BACK ON TOPIC. The piping looks amazing. The only issue I got is how the front back meets the rear bank at a 90degree right where the flange is. The air from the rear is getting basically slammed from the front coming it at a 90. Yea when its flowing nice and quick it wont be that much of an effect, but you really dont want that type of joint when you get into 300-400+whp setups. A smoother Y join wouldve been nicer, but I can see with the space limitations why this was done.

Seems like the clutch and flywheel will heat up unless you ceramic coat those pipes.

Real tight fit......but looks good

These are pics of the kit on th Altima right? I wonder how many pieces need to be tweaked to fit the Maxima. Pipe welds look great!

Thats the whole point of stainless steel. You only ceramic coat mild steel or cheap stainless. You do not have to do that too 304 or 321 stainless. If you want to wrap the pipes in exhaust wrap you can but it will not do much of anything.

SSR have you though about making the manifold equal lenght because the front part of the y is just running into the rear and it is going to cause backpressure on the rear cylinders. I still think you have an incredible product.

I have a question what guage is the steel what the diameter of the turbo manifold, both the shorty headers and the turbo manifold part.

Also it would be bling if you has the wastegate pipe exiting the bumper or fender!

wow complainers already. So your complaning about a fully custom QUALITY turbo kit. You should call ssR and have them make you one out of mild steel, and some crappy welds. Then they'll quote you about 4k.

for 6K bux, what kinda turbo are you going to be using ? Specs on it ? I see you guys are using a TiAL wastegate Have on on my GTi-R SR20DET works nice up to 25psi on mine. Love the quality of the piping, but why go with shorty headers ? Are you not affraid they will crack ? I think stock cast extrude honed manifolds are much better choice since ya don't have to worry about manifolds cracking. I know from SR20 experience half of these "header" look manifolds crack, and thats why alot of people said **** it and use a OE Nissan turbo manifold modified to fit a T04E or a HKS GT series turbo. I for one hope 500WHP for 6K bux, cause I got about 6K bux including motor- which is a internally stock 54C block and 54C head GTI-R which put down 527WHP with 24psi of boost on a HKS "GT" series turbo with a 50shot of NOS I was at 591WHP and astounding 552lbs of torque at the front wheels, 54C block means bussines- used till today in racing applications- Silvia boys envy this 54C engine If not I will just swap that motor into the Max :P

$6000 is alots of bone though,the Greddy's 350Z twin turbo was about $8000 for two turbo and all.
Have you guy consider using the stock cast extrude honed manifolds are much better choice since ya don't have to worry about manifolds cracking,like BlackBIRDVQ recomment to keep the cost down.

I'm not gonna lie, sure you can find a cheaper kit out there. We could make this another cheap kit, but no I'd rather have my stuff stand out. The weld quality, materials and components are next to the best in the industry.

Blackbird, I'm actually building something like that for the 4th Gen guys, utilizing stock existing manifolds, and just making a collector.

Well, turbo's aren't meant to be cheap. All you 4th gens see what you get for $4500 and aren't to impressed with it. I guarantee you guys won't find a better turbo kit for the price. Here I'll list all the stuff I have to put into this kit in order to make it RELIABLE.
Life Time Warranty On all parts we make (Against Cracking, Fitment etc.) Basically a manufacturer warranty
TO4E Turbo (Polished)
Tial 46mm Wastegate
Tial Adapter

I guess people think 6000 is too much when I think its cheap cause I built my own kit and know how much it ran. Not to mention I guess people dont seem to see that you are also including injectors, FPR, and custom fuel rails. Oh well, cheapskates, keep dreaming.
