Of course it's doable, but cost/difficulty are up there.

You don't have to do a twin turbo, that might add to the difficulty. You can just run a 2-1 merge from each bank into a big single.

I have a turbo Maxima, it's a transverse V6 just like the TL and that's how I did it and most other turbo Maximas are set up. A customer of mine just built a custom turbo for his '02 TL and the setup is similar to mine.

It is going to be very tight in there though.

If you have an auto tranny that will be your biggest limiting factor. It will take a **** fast with to much added power.
