Tuned on Haltech 2500 by RS-Enthalpy
It’s impressive how much power it’s generating with a stock bottom end. A huge thanks to Joey Edwin and Tyler Spradley for their assistance in assembling the car, and to Jordan Pirrotta for the impeccable paint job.
The car now boasts 557 horsepower and 499 torque at 11 pounds of boost. Excited to take it for some test runs.

What motivated you to MOD your Maxima?
I’ve always loved the Nissan Maxima…specifically the 4th gen. When the 4th gen was first released in 1995, I liked it from then. When the first Fast and Furious movie came out, I was hooked on it. I bought mine from an older gentlemen, and joined Maxima.org, Torontomaxima.com, an NYCMaximas.org shortly after. After seeing all the builds, it wasn’t long before I started changing things, although they were mostly cosmetic for the longest time.
After owning it for almost 9 years, I decided that she needed to be faster, so I made it happen. – Nick Gopaul
