I noticed this on the 350Z kits
Ok looking at various turbo and SC kits on the 350Z that they position the MAF on the charged side. Why does it have to be different on the turbo and SC on a maxima.

350Z has one MAF and 1 throttle body so it's difficult on the turbo systems to put it ahead of the turbos. You would have to have a single intake, run through the MAF, split into two pipes, run to each turbo, merge back together before or after the intercooler depending on design, and then run to the intake.
Old 300Z's had 1 intake, 1 MAF, 2 throttle bodies, and 2 intercoolers. The car had most of the piping needed anyway and the MAF was in a location before the turbos so obviously no one is going to change that layout unless necessary.

So you could put the MAF from the non charged side of the stillen SC and put it on the charged side near the throttle body and use a pancake filter on the SC instead of the crossover pipe.

5th Gen maximas have very weak MAFs so they tend to blow up if placed on the charged side. That's why Stillen made the crossover pipe. 4th Gen's S/C kits have always had the MAF by the throttle body with a pancake filter. The MAF for the S/C 350Z is before the S/C but that's b/c the Stillen roots blower replaces the intake manifold.
I'm not sure how the 5th gen Max MAF compares to the 350Z but I'd assume that it's tougher. Also not sure if it would be able to be adapted to the Maxima.
