Several questions on going turbo!!

Alright, I'm trying to find out how many of you, if any have had major problems with your engine due to turboing your Maxima's. I'm currently away from the states making a pretty good amount of money and when I return I'll have no bills at all.....thank god. Anyway, I'm looking at going one of 2 ways. First, do all the bolt-on's including, lightned flywheel, lsd, cams, and then also change some of my parts out for better versions. I.E. the headers will go from Stillen to Hotshot and the exhaust from Stillen to Cattman full cat-back. The second option was to go turbo and also put some better pistons, rings and also get a tranny rebuild from Level 10. Now, on the turbo; are the pistons, rings, and tranny rebuild neccesary or over kill. Plus, obviuosly the more strain you put on an engine the shorter the life span of the engine will be, but of turboing and going with full bolt-ons which would be worse. Anyway, I appreciate any help you can all give. Thanks.

it depends how much boost you plan on running. i think you should do some research because this is probably going to get locked...

Ok, I tried to search this before, but I keep getting this message. So, please somebody help a fellow Maxima owner. Thanks.
