The beefier transmission was going to be a CVT, but them decided to swap to MT because I was still going to have trouble down the road and couldn't raise my boost. If I can only keep my boost at 6-7 PSI it's pointless to me which is why I wanted the swap. Tim started beefing up the CVT before I told him to swap everything out. Many of the sensors in that thing are flimsy plastic which is why any rise in temp will screw the transmission. My CVT is sitting in the shop waiting to be sold. Only things I can do now to the MT besides the HLSD which is already in there are a performance clutch and what not. I'm not to sure about the performance clutch since I'll be driving the car 2 or more days of the week in LA traffic which is a PITA :mad: . I want the car to drive and enjoy not just to take to the track or have an uncomfortable driving experience each time I want to cruise.

Will do bruh. Car should be on the DYNO by SAT or Monday. Talk to Tim or Ricky since he's the wiring GURU to find out a better date. Should be sometime next week if I have time to pick it up. Works booming right now.

I give this the smell test and it smells funny. There have been multiple times where it looked your vehicle was close to being done, only to have the wrong part ordered or needing something else. I'm sure Tim is a nice guy and all, but it never should have taken this long to get any thing done to any car. If you are okay with how your situation has played out, then you are honestly a saint, because I think 95 percent of humans would have flipped out by now. . .

Dude STFU Please...

I've been away for a while traveling the world and doing business to I can try to expand my business to other states and I come home to this. This has nothing to do with "MY CAR". It seems like you guys are pissed off as if SFR/Tim has had "YOUR CAR" for so long. I've kept in touch with Tim and other people who have gave me the insite on the status of my car so I know for a fact I'm not getting screwed over at all. I have plenty of money to buy any freaken car I want. Whether it be a Benz, BMW, Jag, Ferrari, Lambo, Rolls, Bentley, Bugatti or ect. I don't want any of those cars though. I want a car that I can be proud to look at and say "Damn look what I have made out of an Altima." SFR is a great company/business in my eyes. Remember that SFR/Tim has had and has been working on "MY CAR" for that long not your car. So leave my car out of this topic or their Intake manifolds. This thread started by IMPORTROLLER is to help the community with performance parts. I would have had my car about a month ago, but the stupid dealer kept giving me the runaround with reflashing my keys because their PC was messed up and were keeping me waiting. Tim took great care of it and took it to another dealership were the keys were reflashed while on the tow truck and is back at SFR getting wiring skimatics done so I WILL NOT have the same problems the first person who had the swap done and is continuing to have. Bottom line is that this thread is to gain interest into the intake manifolds. Give your opinion saying " Nah I can't afford it.", "I'm interested", " Not right now." or "They need dynos or whatever.", But leave me and my car out of their posts.

Haha if you have enough money to buy a Bugatti then I have an email to forward to you from the ousted king if Nigeria who needs your financial help. Thats nearly a million dollar car dude, no way anyone with that cash would even do s*** to an altima even if they turned it into a time machine!

To each their own bruh. I like to live simple and calm. That puts more money in the pockets not paying high insurance and what not ;) . I'm in the business to make money not lose it.

Not trying to make these questions hard and this time I will be keeping comments to myself.
Ha ha loop i doubt it. You r a ball of fire just like me!

Ha, doesn't surprise me one bit. We already knew the truth...lies, lies, and more lies! What do you expect, he has to protect himself and his business. It is natural aka defense mechanism.

Did one better. Got a video for it

Car is running and drivable, but it needs a few things done on the wiring, and the ECU needs to be reflashed for a new programming.

sorry for some of the choppiness. It was on my cell phone camera.
