Nicely done, enjoy it. I do agree that the interfooler is damn small ... i'm currently looking into upgrade options myself. Thicker and wider at least, I'd prefer to keep my bumper beam.

Yeah its not a bad install at all if u have a little basic know how. This car is a BEAST. I know its not a 600hp turbo setup but still more power then traction lol.

how does it sound? I want a turbo for the sound, but would rather run a sc because of the reliability.

In a 5AT you dont get the blowoff sound like a MT, but the SC whine is pretty awesome to my ears ^_^

Sounds like a little jet, exhaust drowns it out anywhere above low rpms though

ahhhahah man i NEVER even use the 700whp setting. Its useless. To be honest i never even put it on high boost (pump gas setting).

I remember when i first supercharged my maxima, i was giddy as hell. The vortech is really a cool setup IMO and very reliable.
