Maxima Driver said:In 2002, the Maxima received a new engine. A 3.5 L V6 pushing out 265 Hp in the 6 speed SE. With a stock 1/4 mile time of 14.7 sec.
Add a full exhuast system - intake, headers, y-pipe, catback, muffler
Put on some slicks and you got a 13 second Max.
1) Intake is induction system, not Exhaust system.
2) Depends entirely on the quality and dynamic of the system. You could have a nice free-flowing exhaust system, but the muffler could be wrong and restrictive. You still need a lot of knowledge to pull it off (or know someone who knows)
3) figure on 2-3K for that, mostly in the intake and headers. especially stock fit shortys.
A full exhaust system on a stang can run about 1K to 12k intakes come cheap in 302 form. and it's a bit lighter stock (the 60's ones) leading to possible 12s for roughly 1/2 the cost of a maxima...... even less if you have a rough body....
I'll stick to American muscle.
