contemplating a turbocharger

A few issues hold me back. First and foremost, $$$. (no brainer)

Also, I have also heard that while turbocharger kits produce more power for the boost than a supercharger, the turbo requires more maintenance. This question has probably been asked tons of times, but what reliability issues are encountered with FI? The transmission is the weak point of the Maxima. But for those who are running turbos and have not needed a tranny replacement, what are your driving styles like and what boost/hp numbers are you putting out?

Down the road this would be a consideration, but the above issues keep me back. Thank you.

Aaron

PS- Are there installation instructions for a turbocharger kit online to look at?
