88pathoffroad Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 There are no kits, and as far as I know, not one single person in the US has done a turbo on the 3.5 in a Pathfinder. I think you're on your own there man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Pickles Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Please do so though, then I could try to talk my father-in-law into it with is '05. Really though, why do you want it. Are you going for pure horsepower (more for show and full throttle), or are you trying to make a tow rig? Those 3.5 trucks pull pretty damn good IMHO. If you could pull it off, you probably wouldn't gain much grunt in torque. It would most likely be higher top-end horsepower under throttle.

Cannonball Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 www.stillen.com supercharger not sure about the 3.5 but for the 05 yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLouisGod Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 What about kits for a 350z? IMO, a SC would be more productive for a truck. Look into the vortech kits... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NismoSkyZ Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 NAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWZZZZZZZZ...lol Fast and the furious? Anyway, you should nos it, but it depends what you are looking to get out of it. The only turbo that would actually work IMO is an after cat remote turbo. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonainmi Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 i have been searching for a turbo for my 3.0, and have not found a kit for it... my reason for a turbo is for high-end power, mostly so i can break 70mph i can look for the info on the turbo for a 3.5, but as far as i know, there isnt a kit/info on it. I will call around for you, call some race shops, and some pefromance places around here and try to get some info on it for you jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarsiff Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I agree that you would be better off with a SC setup, there are already kits for 350z and G35 although you would need a lot of cutom in between items to make it work it would be awsome to see something like this for a pathy, I would LOVE to do it myself.

tmorgan4 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 If you look up "Nissan" and "Dubai" on YouTube I think you'll understand why he wants a turbo. That place is crazy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2geepfinder Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 About a VG30DETT Swap......................Now that would be sexy!!!!!!!!!! :bow: There's been some posts on the 300ZX site I'm a member of; I thinking about doing this swap around the beginning of next year, in my 95 Pathy. So far the only issue I've read about is interference between the inter-cooler piping and the steering gear box. Not sure about the newer Pathys if they have a rack-in-pinion set up you might able to pull it off with out to much of a headache. Think about, look into then frick'n do it!!!!

88pathoffroad Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 A DETT swap will be expensive and time-consuming. You'll need a LOT of custom-fabbed parts to make the stock intakes and all work in a cramped Pathy engine bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're asking these kind of questions I would recommend having someone build you a kit with a properly sized turbo and injectors. You can use a stand alone PCM like Megasquirt. I believe they have a message forum and guys on there can send you tunes to try. They would also be the people to ask about what size injectors to get with the particular turbo you are looking at. Things you need to research: How much boost can the bottom end handle? How much hp will the fuel pump and injectors support? How much hp can the tranny handle? There is a guy in my town builds custom kits for your vehicle but you need to bring the truck to him and leave it for a couple of weeks. Most of the parts can be bought off Ebay for cheap.
