Another CVT turbo on the road!

[speedforce180]

We just finished up Rickys Altima Coupe with CVT turbocharger system.In addition to the tubro system Ricky had us install one of our transmission cooler packages,triple pillar gauge pod(that we formed ourselves) with Autometer EG boost,wide-band air/fuel ratio and trans temp gauges and a Greddy Prfoec-b SpecII boost controller.It came out real nice.Here are some picks.

[Kalamidad]

what are the specs on the install?Boost?Turbo size?any upgrades on the CVT?How does it feel?has it been DINOed yet? Will it?Who's ricky? :P

[08altima35]

looking good. What are the turbo specs and how many lbs. of boost are you thinking is going to be safe with the transmission cooler installed? Also, What if any are you using to tune?

[phobs]

Great work, Tim! So tempting

Upto 6 psi at this time is what we reccomend.The customer has three different settings4, 5, 6psi. LOL. The turbo is a 60-1 hifi so a 61mm T3/T4.

The only upgrade to the CVT is the transmission cooler.We have a CVT transmission here that we will be opening up real soon and seeing what we can do to improve it

The car feels much faster then stock.It actually pulls you back in your seat until you let off the throttle ofcourse.

We have dyned Blakes car but the dyno readings were inconclusive.So at this point we dont know for sure what the cars are making but based on our past experience with the Altima Sedans and Maximas with basically the same motor,we beleive these cars are making around 340WHP @ 6 psi. The only real way to dyno these cars is to pull the engine and dyno it on an engine dyno without the transmission.At this point,we have done all of our tuning on the srett with a wide-band so we can make sure the air/fuel mixture is correct and there is no detonation.

Ricky is one ouf our customers.He is on the board but I dont know his screen name.

Well, whoever Ricky is, he got in on Brandon's projector GB!

[Mr.Coupe]

What's up guys. I'm Ricky and this is my car. It runs like a dream. Pulls hard and takes OFF. You can really feel the power with the Turbo. I would like to give a HUGE THANKS to Tim and his whole team over at SpeedForceRacing for all their hard work in building my car. I have no regrets with the kit and I can honestly say that it was money well spent. I have to take more pictures of my car soon. More upgrades still have to be put in. I also got the AP Racing BBK for the front's and rear's from STILLEN that they put on. Any of the Tech questions asked would have to be answered by Tim if his in here. I don't have that info on me. The triple Gauge pod is AMAZING. Clean, Professional and GREAT work.

I'm surprised you guys don't know who I am.

Ricky C. <~~~~~~~~~ !!!It's always there!!!

Time to upgrade your signature info

[Hussain]

lol i knew it was you.... it just took me a sec because i didnt really remember you talking about turbo but now that i think about it, i remember a thread you were saying if you should turbo your coupe or get a GT-R or a C63 AMG or something else..... i thought you wern't all that serious but i was wrong lol looks good man.... i guess dark slate altima coupes are the ones you dont want to mess with because pretty much all the turbo coupes are dark slate lol man i gotta take a trip down to So Cal and check out everyones rides

[windhaven]

So, how does one get one of these, and for how much?

The car isn't throwing any CEL/SES. I've been driving the HELL outta it. That's the wonderful thing about it all. Once again I state all due to the QUALITY of the whole KIT. They can be such a PITA!!!

brian's crib?

[3ugene]

If one were to do this, is it a free install w/ the prices posted on SFR.com?

I'm about to purchase a fully built/forged 95 Talon TSI that puts out 400WHP to four wheels for 6k.

If I get my car shipped down to SFR and I can get around 350WHP for 6k I might consider.

Looks great. Have fun with ur new toy

[Chuck2417]

That is awesome dude. The car looks really good with that battery out of their. How much does the turbo kit cost?

[Coupeguy23]

i kinda knew who it was because rick never showed off his light lol . "he said he would take pic later on. that was good while back too lol . I like what he has done with ser wheels and the coupe too

[dangeris]

Very Nice Ricky C! Congrats! Makes me want one....however doing the cost analysis and the amount spent for the setup, not worth it for only 6psi, on a CVT no less.. but that's just me...

Oh why oh why did I buy a CVT Guaran-damn-tee'd if I had a 6MT, my ride would have been boosted by now

[PHENOMenalVinyl]

wow man i had a feeling it was you im like ricky i know someone whos posted with that name lol. Looks amazing you have everything done to it.......wheels look hawttttttttt.......and of course so does the rest of the car. Make some videos of this thing in action, or take a vid at a track

we need an east coast turbo

[Mr.Coupe]

however doing the cost analysis and the amount spent for the setup, not worth it for only 6psi, on a CVT no less.. but that's just me...

I'm running 7 PSI and will be moving it up in due time. I spoke to Tim and we will move it up to 8 then 9 and so on as long as it's safe. I hope Tim and the guys over a SpeedForceRacing have good luck with the CVT transmission they will be working with to increase its performance. Other then that the car runs strong and feels like it need more air...(PSI) I'll contact Tim to see when a good time to raise the PSI would be. I still stand behind it not being a waste of money. Money well spent with no regrets.
