ok so i finally got the 07+ altima to work on Forza 2 on my friend's xbox 360 (just needed to delete it and redownload it). so in the game i was modifying the altima and i put a supercharger on it and the brand name of the supercharger was, STILLEN. is it something they ever considered doing in real life when they allowed Microsoft to have there company name on the supercharger for the game? idk, just thought it was a little funny.

Stillen is holding out on us!!!!

Haha, just kidding...it's probably just a dumb game thing - Stillen makes those kits for the Z and stuff, so they probably just hacked the name over to look legit.

I wish they would put out a supercharger for our coupe. I'd like to eventually boost my car, but it's my daily driver and I think a supercharger would be less stressful on the engine than a turbo (or so I've heard).

They used to make on for the Maxima with the 3.5, but apparently wasn't enough demand. Same kit should fit on the Alti, now you just have to convince them to make it again.

wtf? i never knew that. people were saying how it would be very difficult because its a FWD and the motor is sideways compared to the G35 and 350z. but if they've done it before then i'm sure they could do it again. i know its not exactly the same as before but close enough and slowly slowly the altima aftermarket is growing... so maybe in the future.

well i could say the same about any suspension, i never do any corners. everything in my area is long straights with a good amount of traffic lights so its like a drag race on the streets lol plus i do drag race

Yea id be interested in a super charger for the A/C. i actually looked to see if they had one the other day and looked thru the forums and didnt see any. i mean they got one out for every other nissan pretty much why not the A/C. Id be relatively cheaper then boosting it. just a thought

honestly, a supercharger in our engine bays on a 3.5 would be a pain to design. we just don't have the room to do it correctly. It would be nice though. I only know of one 3.5 3rd gen sedan with a full custom S/C kit, and it sounds sick as hell, and is fast. But I would rather have a real snail under the hood. JMO
