I managed to get this deal together, but I need 4 people by 3/1/2004 to achieve this pricing.

Standard Kit - Intercooled kit $3999
Here's what's in the kit:

1. Brand New T4/TO4E turbo with polished compressor housing and LIFETIME warranty (Ball-bearing upgrades available)
2. Tial 38mm external wastegate
3. Complete exhaust pipes
4. Stainless Steel Oil line
5. Oil dump.
6. exhaust flanges to and from turbo
7. fuel pressure regulator
8. T-bolt Clamps, connectors, fittings etc.
9. Spearco intercooler
10 Powdercoated intercooler piping
11. Cone Filter
12. Battery Relocation Kit

NOTE: Shipping is NOT included (a 50% discount on shipping applies to donating Maxima.org enthusiasts)

The kit as it stands is capable of supporting 280HP. This kit has been proven to 350HP without a variable intake. An additional fuel pump and clutch are required to hit this figure. This is the most tried and tested kit out there. There are more than 10 cars with this kit out there. 5 of these people have thrown out their S/C in favour of this kit! This is for manual transmission cars only.

Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery.

Please email me at pfiturbo@comcast.net for any further questions. Happy Boosting!

 

Nigel:

Good to see your still around!! I am still very intrested in a kit, you and I have spoke before about it a long while back.

I am somewhat confused as to the pricing, what would the standard kit be priced at? Also if I would like to do a t3/t4 what kind of price difference am I looking at?

I will most likely try to get ahold of you soon, to talk about some other details.

Thanks.

 

Hi there

The kit price is as stated above. Limited changes will be allowed to this kit. After 3/1/2004 or if we don't have 4 people, this price no longer applies. I am trying to make this a REAL group deal. If you ask for custom stuff, this price no longer applies. If, however, enough people ask for T3/T4 option, then it would be considered a GD. The kit is jigged up so things like BOV, wastegates, powdercoating, heat-treating etc ... are all negotiable, since it doesn't affect jigging. The turbo affects jigging as well as cost of parts.

Good to hear from you again! Guess you and PFI buried the hatchet in terms of working together selling the kit huh? My kit has always worked great. Good Luck w/the GD. I'll be talking to you about pistons and rods soon!!

Deac

 

Sup Deac!

Not really any hatchet to bury. I have a great relationship with those guys. They're always doing new crazy projects!

I changed jobs several months ago and have been really busy ... flying more than ever! I've also been busy with my IS300 and trying to get stuff worked out on there. It'll be going in for major surgery soon . It's boosted but needs something a little extra!

In spite of having my IS300 boosted, I still drive my Maxima more often. To be honest, I find people on Maxima.org in general have more of a passion for their cars. There are only a handful of really nice IS300s but so many maximas! The people on the other forum are pretty cool but a lot of people are scared of boost or don't know jack about it! Too bad the search feature has been turned off for many on maxima.org, cos there was a wealth of information on here for people.

 

This may be a dumb question, but what year Max's will this kit work for?

 

do you know when pfi will have a auto kit available?

 

No not a dumb question! Sorry! I had it written in my original message that got screwed up so i had to type it all in again ! This kit has been fitted to Maximas 1995 through 2001.

 

There has been one car fitted with the automatic kit. However, it is a lot more involved than the manual due to lack of space. If you don't mind losing a few inches of clearance under the car, then it is pretty easy.

If you are in CO and would like PFI to do this for you, then there would be no problem. The auto kit is not to the point where we feel comfortable shipping it.

 

What is the cost of the Auto Kit installed....

 

you said that the kit is setup for 280 hp. that is easily obtained in a 2001. I did not know that this kit was available for the 2001. Also is it fed or cali spec. and last you mentioned something about variable intake. Doesnt the 2001 have a variable intake. I dont mean to sound harsh but i have been looking for a turbo for sometime and just want to know the details.

 

how much for the manual install?

what kind of FPR is it?

did you get my email from a few days ago?

 

yes the auto kit is available, i think im the only one that has pfi's auto kit, the clearance issue isn't that bad with my 17's and intrax springs, i havn't hit any of the piping yet. There have been some other minor issues but mainly b/c of me and not the kit itself, and other than that i love it, you would need the upgraded VB though as the tranny doesn't like the power without it, the stage 2 vb will be even better and im looking to replace my stage one with it.

Woah man, where did you disappear back from??

 

haha iv just had alot of **** to work out the past 6 months, but everything is finally gettin back to normal so i'll be around a little more now.
Ryan

 

If your car is stock, the cost of install is probably gonna run $500-$600 or so for manual and $700-$800 for automatic. The auto is quite a bit more involved.

With regard to 2000-2001 models, yes the kit has been available for quite a while. Cost of install is the same as above. The information about variable intake (VI) is just that for the majotiry of 1995-1999 cars that we have turboed do not have the VI. The HP numbers that I stated are without VI. If you have VI, you can get more power at the top end (over 50 HP at red line). All the 2000+ maximas had VI therefore your HP numbers will be higher given the same boost. Sorry for the lack of information. Looks like I can't change the original post to have the info all in one place. Hope this helps you.

Dafro, what's up with the car? I never see you driving it around!

 

Sorry, dude ... no email from you! Please email me at pfiturbo@comcast.net

 

Cool Ryan, glad to hear it, was beginning to wonder where the heck you were at!

 

You include an FPR, but doesn't it also include a Vortech FMU?

 

Hmm yeah, mistyping on my part ... sorry good catch! it is a rising rate fuel pressure regulator not just a fuel pressure regulator. Wish I could edit my original post.

 

damn... the 2003 is always missing out on these awesome cool deals..... great price for a turbo.. but how much does installationg usually run for a turbo kit like this?

 

pssst lookie here!

 

Any info on perhaps including a 3' catback w/the kit?

Deac

 

For you power hungry freaks, ballbearing is awesome! thats all I have to say.

 

2002 and 2003 can be done but we need an actual car. The turbo itself is not a problem. We just need a test candidate.

 

Ive been doing some reading, and suppose we already have a Exhaust (Greddy), Y Pipe (Budget) and Intake (Frankencar). will we be forced to get rid of these?????

 

If you don't know that, do some research.

 

I sent another email, you get it?

 

Uhm ... replied already!

 

Yes, you will need to get rid of the y-pipe and intake. The exhaust you can keep.

 

Hey Deac,

Any problems with your kit?
Any install issues?
Fitment?
Things you might of had to modify?
Anything minor break and need to be fixed?

 

These exhausts are 2.5" unless customized.
Don't the turbo kits require/recommend a 3" all the way back?

 

I didn't get one! DOH!

 

jOo will be N/A forever...

 

...

 

hrmm interesting. Thanks for the clarification Nigel.

 

So what's your suggestion O-Great One

 

In the pm you sent me you show some figures of 429.7 hp @12.5 psi. To achieve this what else will I need besides a boost controler?

 

3" exhaust, boost controller, S-AFC or emanage, clutch upgrade (min stage II ACT for example), Variable Intake, 60-1 turbo upgrade, larger injectors are highly recommended to hit 400+HP

The base kit without all of this stuff is probably good to about 280-290HP without fuel pump. It can easily go to 350+ without clutch upgrade, some people have gone to 380HP with the base kit (without any NOS) and only addition of clutch, S-AFC and fuel pump. Different things begin to become weak areas the higher the HP you go. I have been finding this out as I go along.

 

HOLY CRAP!!! A DELIO SIGHTING!!! :
