Turbo or not

I got a 95 maxima with 140,xxx miles on it... Should i build up the internals and run a turbo or just do an engine swap and build up that engine and turbo it... i was thinking about doing an RB26 swap and doing a turbo.

Yes yes yes, your on the right track. If I were you it would be best to start with the basics, you know tb coolant bypass mod, turbonator, a lower resistance intake air temp senser mod. Theres a good 25-30 rotor hp there. On a serious note though, take a look around in the sticky's, decide if you can afford a project like you want. Ill tell you like anyone else on here its not cheap at all.

After reading this I say "not" to the question of "turbo or not"

IBTL by the way, I forsee this one potentially getting ugly.

looking at your age and experience with a max, probably not. And are you planning on doing a RB swap on a max? If so maybe you should convert it to a rwd first.
