I don't mean to be mean ricche, but this thread has been discussed a million times before. Please search the threads and comment on one of those. Perhaps we need a sticky thread for this.
Long story short, the Max is not a good candidate for horsepower mods. The transmission is not rated to handle that much torque. Unless someone comes up with a smart turbo that can drop off the boost at higher rpm, around 300 is gonna be the max.
That video you posted was pretty old. It was either for a pre CVT maxima, or they didn't care about long term reliability

I believe that Nissan is keeping the HP to 300 currently on the Max so as not complete with the Infinity brand. I don't think it has anything to do with the CVT, and I have seen nothing but speculation to establish otherwise.

OK, then what is the max horsepower the CVT in the Maxima can handle?
