Nissan Intake Supercharger

Guys,
I'm wondering if anyone bought and tried this kit in their 7th Gen Maxima. We all know that more air is more power. This one is intriguing because it is elctronicly controled. Anyone with experience or thought in this mod please chime in.

But to get maximum performance I would suggest you get One of these as well...

While you under the hood you might as well get one of those awesome G-force chips too from eBay

Oh, it most definitely is.

The cheaper the price, the better the build quality.

I also heard stickers add 5.789654 HP per gram of sticker... So the bigger the better (I mean Ricky Bobby wouldn't of put that fig newton sticker on his windshield if there wasn't some sort of performance gain!)

I bet this would pull a premium at race wars?
I also see the other brand version you can stack 2 of them for a total of 7.5PSI gain.Get that too.

If you want cheap quick power go with a sneaky pete N2O kit maybe.Anything Force Fed will cost you good money to do properly.

Why would you think that big POD clogging up your intake will give you more air or power?

I bet if you take your car to a Nissan service dept with this under your hood, they would laugh at you for about 30 minutes, and then void your warranty.

Ok... this guy needs to be sued for false advertising... Every that old beat up Jeep Straight 5 will pull in more air than that thing can push at idle.

I hope to GOD no one has bought one of these...

At the time same time at least the person asked before buying. I've found assorted things online and asked about them here only to be laughed at. Better to be laughed at on the forums than buy something stupid for your car...that's my motto anyway...

Maybe ask him for a dyno sheet proving results. Aaand when its written in crayon you'll have your answer...

Serious note though...
If it were to "safely" add 5psi of boost, where does the supplemental fuel come from? Cant add compression without fuel unless you want to purchase a new motor...

Like someone else said... all quality and reputable FI kits will cost some major cash...

Maybe the show Myth Busters should do a test on this product.
