Turbo Project

Just as a heads up. My Maxima is on the lift since Friday, the turbo is in place and all major pipings been fabricated and installed. I really had no idea that fabricating your own kit can be time consuming. Whats left is completing the 3inch exhaust-system, installation of my electronics, and intercooler mounting. Once completed I'll post some pics...

Keep you posted.

Speaking from experience, it is very time consuming, but very rewarding. Halfway through, you really wonder if it's all worth it. Especially when you've recut the same pipe 4 times and it still won't fit like it's supposed to. But in the end, it's a nice feeling of accomplishment.
