Twin turbo? Damn....don't think you'll be seeing that at all. There is supposedly a turbo coming out within the next few months. I don't know who of where it's coming from, but I have heard something of it.

a few turbo kits will be available by the end of summer. so turbo kit prices will drop soon, because it'll become competitive. superchargers are for whimps, j/p, the stillen supercharger is real nice, it would be even nice if it wasn't as belt hungry tho.

Twin-turbo? It's hard enough to fit ONE turbo, much less two. And don't let any of these bozo's tell you the Z kits will work with our car. The engine is 90 degrees to ours. The plumbing is completely different. Heck, you'd have a hard time getting a turbo kit for the Altima to work with a Maxima, just because of the different engine compartment layouts.

But yes, custommaxima.com is supposedly working on a turbo kit for us, and I think I heard Stillen, or maybe Jim Wolf?, not sure.

I have heard of a guy in Louisville KY that makes and installs custom turbo kits for 02's. Can't remember where I saw that. Anyone know?

You dont want an answer to that question apparently. Ask BigDog.

heh, the guy who I worked with when dyno'ing my car at Protech in Austin gave me a 30 minute detailed explanation on how he could fit a twin turbo into an '02. He had some crazy layout that he swore would fit..
