eaton and vortech ( the stillen s/c) are the two best ones there are...your'll have no prob with either the prob lies in the car...mostly the tranny though i don't see any probs with ruing even 14psi with some simple mods.

14 psi with simple mods? How are you going to handle the fuel? Timing? 14 is just too high without an ECU to control things.

Eaton makes superchargers, but you'll have to develop a bracket that will hold the SC in place... just like how Vortech makes a SC, but Stillen provides the bracket, piping, screws, bolts, tap, etc.
You can get an Eaton SC, but are you willing to develop the other parts?

Wouldn't you also have a footprint problem with an Eaton supercharger, Kev? Even if you could develop the bracket, piping, screws, bolts, tap, etc., where would you mount an Eaton so that it would physically fit under the hood of a Maxima?

you can add one of themz "power bumps" on the hood like the eclipse.. they have a bump ont he turboed eclipse.. a cheap alternative is to get a air scoops and cut a hole in the hood.

all the 2nd gen Eclipses got the turbo hood with our without turbo.
most likely with the Eaton supercharger youll replace the intake manifold but seeing the drivebelts are on the other side poses a problem doesnt it?
