I turbo'd my Nissan Pathfinder y0
 

Yup. Remote style. Quite pleased with how it turned out. See for yourself :)

this is the lineup:



.48/.60 stock SVO/tbird/XR4Ti automatic turbo



rubber oil return... air compressor hose. harbor freight y0!



shurflo santoprene diaphragm oil pump



-4an stainless braided oil feed



cheap ass ebay MAF intake adaptor that DIDNT EVEN BOLT UP. clowns. that's going to have to be redone but it jimmied on there for now



custom maf relocation harness



1g DSM bypass



1g probe intercooler pipes and rubber, truck radiator hose



22" cherry bomb pre turbo, no cat



$5 wal mart chrome exhaust tip with a picture of a supra on the label (SWEET!)





The pathfinder sports a 160 hp/180 ft lb tq 3.0L SOHC V6 (VG30E). The curb weight of it is 4500 lbs. This adds up to one SLOW ride that still sucks gas like mad. Well driving a 400 hp mx3 daily, and I cant have this as a back up. Need... more... power. The VG30E is a pretty beefy motor stock (mine is original and has 235k miles on it) and has been taken to 400 hp on stock internals from time to time. So I had no choice.



Enjoy...



HAVE to start with one of these

And some short clips (sorry, my cybershot doesn't do justice). It actually sounds like I'm driving a turbine engine down the road.

------- sweet ;D INSTA FRONT PAGE

WHY pre turbo glasspack and do you have a pump on the oil return?

Re: I turbo'd my Nissan Pathfinder y0
 

thanks ;D I did it in like 16 hrs.

I posted up my MX3 project with the cummins turbo too... but I guess no one was diggin on it? lol

Re: I turbo'd my Nissan Pathfinder y0
 

Because this is the daily to tow my car to the strip since I just bought stickey Mickey's for it. I don't like noise and really wanted to quiet it down as much as possible. Plus I use it to tow a dirtbike trailor, I got an 01 Yamaha YZ 250 that i ride as much as possible during the summer :) Also with gas prices these days. Stay out of boost, and turbo'd vehicles get better mileage. I confirmed this with my car, 2-3 mpg more than n/a.

I do have a pump. I bought it a long time ago. Its a shurflo 8000 series with an oil safe diaphragm. I had almost all the stuff to do this project except time. the mx3 has been keeping me real busy. Plus school and work... :3
