The way he mixed the tan with the black, is original on a maxima and has been executed aesthetically well.

yeah the tan isn't the greatest, but I try and keep it as clean as possible.. if I keep modding this car I am going to completely strip the interior down and do 1 solid color like cherry red (m3's) or burnt orange (audi tts) and do a suede/leather combo..
thanks though.

when it comes to Jason its always bling bling. lol
so, you went from air, to AGX's/sprints, to koni yellows and coilovers and now JIC's eh?
you shoulda mailed yourself with the sprints and AGXs i bought from you and you coulda done the install for me so you could get some practice in.

Here's the full progression of suspension
Air Ride - got tired of it, sold it
went to Weapon R coilovers w/ koni yellows
Got a new better air ride setup
switched to Sprint/AGX
then to ground control
and now to JIC's.
He changes suspensions like most people change CD's.

How much HP (crank wise) do you expect?
I am not sure how well the T3/T04E is with the VQ but I know on EJ motors they are VERy laggy turbos.
How much peak boost do you expect? What about boost at redline? Will you hold full boost at redline or have it tapper off?

Well, the turbo has been in the car for several weeks now. It puts down 256 whp and 254 tq at 5 psi.
On the VQ, it is definitely not laggy. Guess the extra displacement helps. Jason's car starts boosting around 2500 rpm and full boost is right before 3000 rpm. 240 ft/lbs tq are available below 3000 rpm, so there is very little lag.
And at 5 psi, at least it holds that all the way through redline.
The wastegate is on a 7 - 9 lb spring, but his duals are choking it to 5. With the 3" exhaust he's gettign shortly, we should see the full 7 lbs of boost.

that low-end torque is very impressive if you ask me. I definitely need to get back into the work force real soon, as in before this kit becomes available for purchase.
