does the max have enough space under the hood to run a turbocharger?...since turbos are much better than superchargers

 

I think someone has a turbocharger in their 5th gen. but it was probably a lot of work.

 

if anyone ran a turbo in their 5th gen...pleez tell me..i wanna know more about what kinda custom work wass needed

 

I think Kev knows who has one and who doesn't....

 

u want to run a turbo EHHHHH!!!!! didnt u not read about the eibch maxima that had a turbo on it and what happend BOOOOM!!!! they blew the engine i wouldnt recomend a turbo on our cars until someone perfects it! let me know if someone does

 

yes i know the stillen went boom but i remember that kev told me someone had turbo that didn't go BOOM.

 

The only turbo 5th gen is the Eibach maxima as far as I know. There is one turbo 4th gen though.....

 

Yes, the 5th gen Max does have enough room to fit a turbo.

3rd gen turbo: TurboMax
4th gen turbo: Turbo95Max
5th gen turbo: Eibach's Maxima

Would anyone else like to add (or be added) to this list?

 

This is a list that I plan on being on as soon as it is possible. The nitrous and turbo combination on the max would be unbeleivable. If only I lived somewhere that people had the know how on something like this, I would already have a turbo. D@MN REDNECKS!!

 

Hehehehe It's nice to have a turbo'ed Maxima (Turbo95Max) around the area.

 

i want a turbo... "nos i need nos.. i topped out at 70mph, nos i need nos.. give me two of each"

u can add me to that list... i'll just get a tornado air thingy... that counts, doesn't it???

 

 

maybe for -5 hp

 

They were using 100-150 shots of NOS in the movie and that was with almost completely rebuilt engines with superior parts. The stock Maxima's safety margin is 80 shot or less I believe.

 

how come the 4th gen can run a turbo without blowing the enigne....and why does it happen with the 5th gen... the engines are similar. What exactly happened with the Eibach Maxima which caused it to blow?....how much psi was it running?...is there an article on it anywhere?....

 

we.. no one ever said there weren't anyproblems with the 4th gen running boost.. it could be possible that the eibach max was boosting too high without proper engine reinforcements.. matthel would know better about this..

 

you can do a low boost turbo setup and still be very very realible...no overboosting. in my opinion a supercharger is safer because the user cant go crazy and accidently blow his motor cause he wnated to see what 20psi would do...

 

and you know that because??

 

... because he has 1st and 2nd. He'll blow you away from 0-60.

 

what happened to the rest?

 

Turbo95Max doesn't need 3rd or 4th gears.

 

I see

 

i was talkin' bout blowing the motor at 20psi. i knew he did that, just rubbing it in...

 

what all is needed to have a "sufficient" engine to run a good amount of boost? what do u have to replace/reinforce? Do they even make the necessary components yet?

1) Depends what you think needs improvements
2) Everything that's weak
3) Nope... find people that will customize for you

 

heyhey, i dont check the 5th gen often so i cant defend myself! i see you guys talkin smack bout me here??? hahaha, say that to my face come meet up with me blah blah...oh wupps. Ummm, yea i had an unfortunate 20psi mishap but better to have experinced 20psi and blown it then to have never experince anything above 2psi!! NA BOYS!!! hahaha juss kiddin....later

ps. i like NA too, but only for bikes!

 

hahah i already said it to your face today.. eh i heard u got a bike??? is it nice?

 

hummm i dunno, you tell me if its nice Daniel....oh by the way, this thread is turbochargers. not bikes

 

k fine, y dont' u slap on that turbo lying around in your garage on the f4i??? it'll make a nice project... just becareful when u hit 11000

 

I wonder how much quicker it would be if you can do that. ..... but I think that turbo is too small and won't be effective at that rpm. Try one of 'dem BIG turbos (Supra upgrade).
