2008 2.5s 6MT turbo?

[Coupe-er]

I was just wondering if they make such a beast? If so, where and how much?

Thanks

stillen was making one i thought, but even after you turbo is, youll prolly be about as fast as a 3.5

[coderedk]

is stillen really making a turbo for the 2.5??? i thought it might be a supercharger

probably slightly quicker, the 2.5 weighs 100 - 200lbs less.

2.5 L can be turbo charged to 350+ with forged internals, and since one is installing a turbo kit, might as well get those forged internals for extra pwning

2with forged internals

where are these forged internals you speak of?

[mikegtr06]

all the internals for the qr25 sentra spec v. there out there.

i would kinda like to get another block and start to build up a turbo motor .... but i dont have the money...

I remember reading a while back that someone had found out that the 2.5 on the coupe was slightly different from the 2.5 on the SER. Is this not the case?

[mikegtr06]

i thought that the tune, the position of the engine and the oil pan were different. but i may be wrong.

[dldjros69]

If the parts are out there was have i not read about anybody on the forum doing that sort of mod?

[RobPaulson]

why would you buy a smaller engine just to turbo it? for the same if not less of the total cost you could have gotten a 3.5 and thrown some bolt-ons.

so just curious, why didnt you spend that 5 grand on the bigger engine right out the gate?

[brokendan]

could have been they didnt want to pay more on insurance or if they are paying a note they may not have wanted to pay the higher note that would have come with the 5 grand extra on the bill. heh i personally got the 4 banger for the gas mileage. and only way i will turbo it is when the warranty on the engine is up. but it is nice to know that you CAN if you so happen to want to

[mikegtr06]

because i didnt think that i could afford the 3.5 at the time and i could have...... but they have the same transmission for the cvt so i could have more boost on the 2.5 and it could be faster than the 3.5 cvt with a little less weight and stronger internals for a little more than the cost.

At the time i purchased my 2.5 i was drving a dodge neon with 134 hp. So 175 hp was a huge jump. And it was a huge jump. No slouch on the 2.5.

But somebody pulled in front of me and i hit them doing 65 mph. I was hurting sore and not thinking. i needed a new car asap.

I have now since gotten a better job making considerable more money than when i purchased the car. Therefore at the moment i could afford the 3.5.

But if i were to buy a new car, i dont think i would get another AC.

That sounds just like my story. I had a Toyota Echo before this (currently ranked #1 on Cardomain BTW) but I got rear ended by a city bus, then side-swiped by a minivan who was attempting to get out of the way of yet another city bus that swerved into his lane. The Echo was a writeoff and I needed another ride ASAP. The 2.5 was in my budget at that time, but shortly thereafter I got a few high paying contracts that would have enabled me to get a 3.5 had the accidents happened a few months later. Oh well...I love the highway mileage of the 2.5, it's got great torque, and the insurance is much cheaper for the 2.5 up here anyway!

...still, in a few years when the warranty runs out I'd love to supercharge it!
