i think a few guys on here have the sfr kit for the 3.5.

i will be the first one to have it for the 2.5. It should be installed in 3 weeks or less.

The shop doing the install says that all the parts are high quality. they said that this kit is better than others out there on the market.

ill check back after the installation and let you know how i feel or u can check out the thread that i will be creating.

Hey Steven. I have the SFR turbo system and have had it in my car since about Feb of 08. From my personal experience the system is worth every cent. The quality of the system is top notch. The only problem with anything is if you're installing it on a CVT. You will run into problems with the transmission after a few months or a year if you're lucky because the CVT SUCKS AZZ. The common problem you will get with the CVT is the pressure control cylenoid. And this thing is right in the middle of the transmission so you will have to remove the turbo from the car, remove the transmission, open it up, remove all the gears/internals just to repair it and then do the opposite to install everything again . Nissan gets a HUGE for the CVT in my book.

Any questions you have about the system or concerns just email me directly dude .

I've had this problem just once. My car has been at SFR since May of 2009. Tim is beefing up my transmission so that eventually I won't run into these problems. My car is almost done he just needs 1 part that a company was giving him the runaround about them not having it in stock and some other BS. Tim went directly to the dealer and ordered it this week so it should be here soon. I regret not getting a manual as well. The only reason I didn't is because I have a 98 Jetta Vr6 with a stage 3 turbo that's manual. LA traffic is no joke and with a manual car it's HELL. This is the only reason I didn't get it manual. Then again I didn't plan on doing all that I have to it, but hey what can I say I just have performance/speed running through my blood.

Tim's been beefing up my transmission so I will not run into any problems with it. Which is why I've been without my car for so long. Tim knows his SIHT so I trust him and his work.
