Sorry common newbie question

I have a 95 se, auto... with about 145.000 miles, its runs great, and hals ***. I'm thinking about S/C or Turbo (whichever route is better) this car, but........ is it worth it, or not.. I really want to have some ***** behind the car, I have a y-pipe and UDP, but that can only do soo much. What am I looking at doing to the car, can it handle teh Boost??? I heard about the tranny blowing, what can I do to keep this from happeneing?

What will I need beside the kit??? (Tranny Cooler, VB mod?, etc....)
What else can I add to the car, to make it fasters?? (exhaust, Intake, etc....)
Turbo or S/C? (I heard turbo is better for autos, cause the throttle is alwasy open or something like that?)
And last but not least, will my car sound like the maxima on the Fast and the Furious?? Thanks, any add information would be nice

Do you have 3000-5000 dollars in hand, plus money for a new engine and tranny?

Like spanishrice said...you gotta pay to play. It's not just a one time thing. You wont just slap it on the car and the car run great and never have problems.


Boost may not be for you...the miles on the car should not have a big impact. BUT...you're automatic. bags533 was a turbo auto...but blew his tranny. He did not have the VB mod from what I know.


If you are to get one of the 2....just make sure you're never broke.

yes he did have a VB mod! its in my backyard


Auto is your weakness, you have over $8k go turbo, if not go SCer. I have over 144K on my max and just SCed it. Still runs like a champ. Have to run it against other healthy maximas to get some comparison runs on video.
