twin superchargers produce little relative power compared to a twin turbo set up. Superchargers are belt driven therfore they will produce alot more power than 150hp, but when you factoer in the parasitic drain they also cause you get this weak *** 150 hp for 10-15 k. Yeah superchargers give immediate response and generally run a little cooller than turbos, but max output will generally be less. twin turbos twin superchargers I know you guys all love blitz but I think I will waitfor the next forced induction set up to come along before I start drooling. The horsepower gain doesnt reflect the price . Its still cool to see the aftermarket respond to our cars though. Thanks for the pics

I just want(sucks if its going to be me) someone to blow their motor. That way those of us who are actually thinking of forced induction know what were dealing with.
Its probably going to be me this summer. If i get time off from school ill be sure to document my adventures

On a car like this I would go NOS. Forced induction on a car not already designed is going to decrease long term reliability. Meaning I wouldnt count on 250k miles with no rebuild. The new systems are generally putting out low boost to adjust for the fact that the motor is not designed for it. This makes it generally safe. My concern is that like any car the power always seems stop satisfying after a year or less in some situations. This results in what I have seen a thousand times in the g35/ 350Z community. You will turn up the boost, or if you supercharge the pulleys will get smaller and smaller and BOOM you push the motor until it blows.
