Well, the kit is a Stillen. That's the only kit made for the Maxima, they use a Vortech unit. I just don't mention Stillen because I can't stand them. Every time I've ordered, they've been rude and unhelpful, so I just call it a Vortech blower so I don't have to mention them.
I got a good deal on it from someone slightly used. New, I think Avalong Racing or Southwest Autoworks has it for the cheapest.
I didn't do the original install, but later on I blew a belt and a friend and I pulled the blower and reinstalled it, so now I know how to do it. There are half a dozen writeups on how to do the install yourself, it's actually not that hard. If you read the writeups. The instructions Stillen sends suck, so don't use those.

Hey Evo --- how much was the Vortech SC, and did you put it in yourself? I'm considering a Maxima (your body style) for a next car, and if so may go SC. I know Stillen also has a kit. Why did you go Vortech and not Stillen? Curious, PM me if you wish. Thx.
