How different is the mating with the eaton supercharger and a 95 VQ engine? For long term reliability I think it would be a better choice.

The xtrerra comes with a 3.3 sohc engine. I'm pretty doubtful.

Just get the Xterra & swap out the pulley to a smaller one.
250hp easily!

Im gonna go out on a limb and say no

Looks to big, wont fit under the hood...

And it looks like it connects directly to the intake manifold, definitely after the throttle body, so the fabrication would be rediculous, if even possible.

I'd highly doubt that it'll fit since that supercharger is designed exclusively for the VG 3.3L engine and not for the VQ

That means there is probably a short intake manifold to mate it to the engine?

How different are the intake ports on the VG vs VQ. Would a manifold be the solution? What else would it imply to transfer the s/c on the VQ, aside the hood?
