10PSI Blowthrough Vs My 96 Maxima

Finally got it tuned enough to start playing. Just to be clear both cars are mine and my wife and I use this secluded road for test runs and tuning. My Maxima kept up with me when my 7 was NA stockport. This is my streetport at 10 pounds of boost.

She sure was... that was my wife driving the Maxima and we have gone through this routine before. The Maxima is not too slow like I said... on the straight away she would keep up with me when I was NA. I thought it wouldnt... but it did...

I had a newer vette this morning flash me. Now I know on the straight away he would kill me but I slowed down so he took off and try to pass on the right. I down shifted and floored it and he ran out of room really quick and slowed down and got back in line behind me and didnt try it again.

I know when I started the project I just wanted someone to give me a general idea of what it would end up like. All the DYNO sheets and some stories make it hard to guage... so bassicaly the point is that I raced my V6 Maxima before and it kept up when I was NA on a straight away... but now I completely slaughter it with 10PSI boost... and its on video.

Thanks...

My 10 year old was my tri pod... shes got the boost bug too now. She always wants to go for a ride but boy those rides are getting really expensive at 4.30$ a gallon premium.

I'll get the other driving vid soon Ben.
