hi guys, this may sounds stupid..

i've been looking on turbos and supercharges installation, also been reading maxima.org

well as i know to install turbo its pain in the as$ for the fist time...


how about supercharger, it seems so .... SIMPLE..


how much you need with pipe and kits and how much time you need to put it?

 

have u ever done anything to your car?

 

2-3k in parts. 8hours (i think) if u done it before

 

With an extra set of hands, I could probably do the install in about 6 hours with the V1, but you would have to wait overnight to let the sealant dry on the drainback plate V2 always depends on that little friggin allen bolt that is held captive by the idler pulley. You guys know what i'm talkin bout!

 

well Steve u live in chicago, you could help me out..

well of course for a pay..

yes right?

 

i can do it in about 6 also and i found the trick to that little freakin allen bolt,lol. i brought a allen bit with a mini allen bit ratchet it works like a charm.

 

Where did you get that???????????

Sib, sure, but it'll have to be on one of my days off. We're going to move back into my house soon so I may be busy with that. If you're talking about doing it closer to summer, I'll have more time.

 

i got it from sears it holds the allen bit and all you have to do is put the bit in first then get the wrench on it and walah. this use to be my biggest problem and nightmare now i can take off and put on in 1 hour flat.

 

Its probably the main reason why I got the V1 plate.

 

yeah, sounds simmilar all around... i paid 2600 for mine with some extras. However, it took me about 2 weeks to actually get the setup working, as i couldnt do it all the time, and i messed up on stuff several times, like setting up the fuel system backwards. other than that it was just lots of time and thinking to work out the kinks. when i look back on it, it really wasnt all that hard, but i guess that goes with everything after its done. ive seen a turbo kit for a car before and truthfully, it scared me. i know i could probably figure it out given the time but it is def. many times more complicated. so yeah, sc is your best bet, but if your working alone or even with help that has never installed one before, expect a decent amount of time to work out the bugs. thats just my .02.

 

fawk, i wish i could join you guys. i was so close to a V2 kit, but no. that would be too easy. enjoy your boost. i think i'll just have to wait till my next car to do anything like that.
