The Nations FIRST 6th Gen Nissan Maxima Turbo

[ranmas2004]

Did you get a dyno yet? Nice car man! I heard bad reviews on the Kinetix manifold like it rusts at the wleds and stuff. have you had any probblems with it? SFR makes a manifold for VQs too you know? Im getting one made for my maxima as we speak.

[chernmax]

@ranmas2004 Dyno'ed with 345whp, Zero Issues with my Kinetix and I've had it for 4+ years in the car. SFR does make a GREAT manifold, wasn't made yet during my build and since I don't have any issues no need to swap yet! 

[ranmas2004]

@chernmax that was 6PSI not the 8PSI right? You should look into meth injection bet you could get boost up to 8PSI and make at least 40 more SAFE HP. I'm getting a custom turbo built for mine too. Next year installing it as soon as the spring hits and snow is gone. Its almost winter here now and would be a waste since can't use all that power in the snow.

@ranmas2004 I'm actually selling Red Heat, bought a New Chevy Camaro SS/RS with the LS3 6.2L and the car is Supercharged... (Puts down about 600+hp)

[ranmas2004]

@chernmax DAYUM!!!! Can't compete with that!!! NICE!!! LOL!

[chernmax]

@ranmas2004 It will be easier to find mod parts too and not pay twice as much since a Camaro is way more mod friendly! I'm also in love with the retro look...

[ranmas2004]

@chernmax I agree. Not much support for Maximas or Altimas. Basically have to get parts from 350z and see if they work. That is why I want to move to get a 350z...TONS of aftermarket support for those! Dont have to go around scraping and scavenging and custom making everything. I feel you. A lady that I work with got one of those new Camaros SS....they said it got like 450hp or something....I dont know. Looks nice though!!

[chernmax]

@ranmas2004 When I first bought Red Heat back in 2003, the only mod available was Window Tint!

You mentioned that the stage II kit is rated at 378whp+.. Is there a stage III?? Do you know how much horses it makes??

[chernmax]

Not to my knowledge however that doesn't mean a more powerful turbo and configuration can't be achieved, I would hit up Speed Force Racing (dot) com website and under the contact numbers give Tim (Turbo Tim) a call and ask him. Good luck and also in a 5th gen maxima this kit made 390whp!

@chernmax engine bay messy as hell but its dope whip anywayz

[chernmax]

@realestniggaout Dude was still in the assembly phase...

[realestniggaout]

@chernmax Aww i see thats alot power u got there is it dd or track or fun or all 3

[chernmax]

@realestniggaout Fun Daily Driver only, a Nissan Maxima could never be a race car. But damn if the dude in the stock 2010 Camaro SS look alittle flustered!!!

[03altimator]

I watched your videos a few months back and it was looking sick and your were getting it modded pretty quick, I had figured you'd be the first to turbo, I was looking at SFR for the Altima turbo but I lack funds since im only in college right now, though you should take it to the track or some in car accelerations would be nice!

[arzuk21]

u guys dino it yet ?

[chernmax]

The Stage II kit is dyno rated at 378whp+

[arzuk21]

verri nice ! it should pull out in front of a sti 4 sure

[chernmax]

I'm sure an STI being AWD will take it off the line but the Max will definitely catch it and beat it in the quarter mile. Search Youtube, lots of VID's with boosted Maxes handing STI's there asses... :-)

[chernmax]

Do a search on YouTube for Maxima verse STI, see what happens when the Nissan VQ midband power kicks in...

[arzuk21]

wow, definitely wat i've being waitin for, too many evo n sti owners bragging! can't wait for maxima's to charge up in hp ! thanx bro, saw some nice vid's

[nomorepoontime]

you truley are an honerable man to anyone who owns a maxima, how much did all those mods cost and what you got in there

[chernmax]

Google "Chernmax" and check out my CarDomain website for all the details including pictures. 6 pages of info!!!

Total cost over 4 years is about 15K

[DAILL2DEF]

damn almost forgot, where did u put the battery???????

[chernmax]

Below I meant 6th Gen Nissan Maxima and the battery is now trunk mounted. The Turbo kit comes with the relocation supplies.

Google "Chernmax" and check out all the hits on my user name, look for any for my Cardomain web page for details about all my mods and How To!!!

[DAILL2DEF]

wow....i've been researching but they basically don't make ANY turbo kits for maximas....this has got to be custom....mind if i ask who u went with? turbonetics, hks, greddy????

[chernmax]

SpeedForceRacing(dot)com has the new Max Turbo kit, it was originally made fora 2002 Nissan Altima and I was the Nations first to install a kit in a Maxima. Hit up their web site for the 411...

[juston3000]

[chernmax]

Sorry, if you have to ask!!!
