I have a completely stock engine from japan. My first japanese sports car. Not my first japanese automobile. Had lots of toyota 4x4's. Got to say this is the first one I have had that burns oil. Not a good sign at all. As far as putting forced induction on this engine I would hesitate by all means. Not that I couldnt afford it, but just not a satisfied customer in this department. Im sure it is a good engine as long as someone looks after it and does scheduled maintenance. I would not put my wife in a nissan if it requires the oil checked every 1,000 miles. Really like the automobile but they are making it really hard. By my experience I have a 2006 chevrolet truck with 120,000 miles, I run 10w30 castrol, and I have never added oil to it one time. Not trying to talk bad about the japanese but it seems like the technology of foreign cars is coming to an end. I really like my automobile but all the talk I have heard before is not stacking up
