Turbo Maxima

That car's engine is hurting or that camcorder needs a new mic ... that did not sound good at all when the hood was up. That metal on metal whine can't be good ... bad bearing, loose rings, bad turbo ball bearing (if equiped), etc. ... you pick. Regardless of the choise, it can't be very good. Hopefully this guy was smart enough to lower the compression to run moderate boost (6-12psi) or is smart enough to know that if he didn't, he shouldn't exceed 6 psi.

Turbo does seem nice. If he can do it, then Ill be damned it can be done in a 5th gen.

i am very seriously getting a turbo on my car this summer. i only have so much money so im wondering if i should get a body kit and forego the turbo or get the turbo done sometime this summer. i think im going to go with the turbo. 90% chance that this will be done.

I don't see the battery in the engine bay. Did you have to move it to the trunk or somewhere else? Did you have to move anything else?
For whoever suggested using a T4, I doubt it would fit correctly. Am I right or wrong?

Re: Modifications
hey guys, flame away at my ideas ...
twin turboing the 2k2 maxima seems possible if you turn the engine around 90 degrees and install the stillen short ram intake.. This then provides 2 things
the stillen intake will be sucking air directly from the gap in the hood
and the engine will be mounted in a way that negates the use of a y pipe so dual catalytic converters with equal length headers is possible...
then this just leaves the small problem of where to mount the turbos... but you will have the engine alligned for twin turboing.

Ummm, you can't turn the engine. If you turned it 90 degrees, it would be configured for RWD. So I don't know what you are talking about.

Jer, I've had my L10 tranny stage 3 for 5 months, and no problems here
As for TT set up, its not all that easy, but it can be done. Two T3/T4s could be set up. Can always have a T25 spool from the rear bank, Hobbs switch allowing T3/T4 or T04(If so inclined) to flow.
Get great response low end and high end.
In the end, who cares ?

how do u mean configured for rwd? ... i figure that honda accord v6 engines have the cylinder banks facing each wheel well, whereas nissan mounts the 3.5 liter transversally on the maxima.

That's actually my car in the movie! You can see the dyno results in the 4th gen forum. It dynoed at 352 HP and 549 ft-lbs at the wheels at 9.3 psi. The results were not very accurate because of my slipping clutch.
The results are here:

I am wondering if this will fit a 5th gen. Anyone know the differences in the enginebay area between 4th and 5th gen?
Interesting that the video made it on to Maximaproduct.com without my knowledge.
