| We just finished developing a single turbo system for the 5.5+ gen Maximas.It is for the six speed tranny only.We will hopefully have a system for the automatics very soon.You can get more info on our website. http://www.speedforceracing.co...o.php

I'm all about forced induction and I'd like to congratulate you in coming out with a kit. I do however want to address some issues I see with the advertising and such.
From your site...
We also incorporated another unique element to this turbo system and that is converting the MAF sensor into a blow-through unit.By converting to a blow-through system it allowed us to use a conventional blow-off valve and vent it to atmosphere as well as being much safer for the engine.Yes, safer!
By converting the MAF to be a blow-though unit we eliminate the potential of sucking in unmetered air and running lean, which leads to detonation and possible catastrophic engine failure. We also utilized a Spearco intercooler to keep the charge air temps to near ambient levels and to help maximize power and increase safety even further.
The above statement is completely false. Would you mind explaining how having the MAF in front of the turbo in a "pull thru" setup could result in the engine digesting unmetered air? Perhaps Nissan had no idea what they were doing when they built the GTR...
The blow thru design keeps the motor from venting air that was ALREADY metered by the MAF. This causes an over rich condition in the "pull thru" setup...NOT a lean condition. Which is why people often have stalling issues.
Why are you paying $995 for a non bb turbo that I can get retail for $610? And that's without searching for a good deal. I'll tell you why, cause you're lying.
You're giving a customer a cross pipe that connects the two existing manifolds to the turbo, the turbo, some injectors and a piggy back controller with a FMIC setup for $5500 bucks.
How about NO
I'm ready to debate whenever you come up with some answers.
