Performance parts

Has anyone had any luck finding performance parts for the 8th gen? Looking into the possibility of a turbo or supercharger but am hitting a brick wall.

I have a call in with a few local places (upstate NY) trying to find something. May just end up having to have it customized but would prefer to have a kit and just do it myself. Maybe I'll get lucky and bring it somewhere and have them build a kit for me with a nice little discount in return for some promotion for other Maxima's. Wishful thinking though.....I can't imagine that people aren't going to attempt a turbocharged/supercharged engine with these

The biggest issue on this gen maxima is there is no tune for it and you going to need that to gain max hp.

No one has a turbo kit or supercharger kit because of the CVT transmission. You can thank Nissan for killing the performance aftermarket on the Maxima. Ever since 2002, big aftermarket performance companies have abandoned support for the Maxima.

And since you have a CVT transmission, you'd be crazy to try and add FI.
