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 *** 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.

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...
