2008 Altima coupe 3.5 L going turbo

[awaldo74]

My brother-in-law is visiting from PR and since I'm paying for his vacations and he is a genious me mechanic he told me he will make my Altima a Turbo Altima. Thing is that he can tell me everything he needs in spanish but how do i go online and get it in english when I don't know that much to start with. Can you guys give me any ideas on the right parts I need? Thanks for all the help.

A turbo would be custom made...you'll first need to learn/understand all the basic parts necessary for a basic turbo install and go from there to fine tune your turbo set-up. Is your coupe a manual or CVT? Keep in mind that a turbo set-up will not be cheap and require a lot of tuning to ensure that a your car runs properly.

There are a few guys on the forum that boosted their coupes who could provide a lot of technical information and advise to you.

Thanks for your reply. I totally agree with you... it won't be cheap or easy, but I really want to try and learn. My brother in law says he can customize whatever we might need but I want to get the parts that need the least amount of modifications. Good thing is that I can get single parts at a very nice price because of a relative who can help me but again I would need the closest specs I can get to be able to put it together with cutting, welding, and ingeniuty.
