Finally trying this supercharging thing

After having 2 turbocharged maximas, i decided to switch it up..

Basic Setup:
V2 Blower
V1 Plate
Walbro 255
FMU
Vortech Bov
stock pulley until i can get my 9psi pully
4th gen Charge pipe
Vafc2
stock ypipe
Apexi Ws2 Catback
test pipe

Adjustments i might make:
11 -13psi Pulley
370-440cc Injectors
28x6x3 Intercooler
xs power ypipe
Mevi


Only looking to make 320fwhp as a Daily, i have a SC300 im putting together to make 600

What made you go SC this time?

I had a v1 blower and LOVED it. I still kick my self for getting rid of such an amazing kit I had. I went turbo and ehh yea it was nice but I never maxed out the power on the turbo kit for me to really be impressed on what it could to.

Only a matter of time before the MEVI is switched out for a 00VI, that would only complete the list.
